What is out there as far as engine management for a 91 g20? I'm used to the honda world and have a fair amount of experience, just need help finding the parts.

You won't get anything out of ECU tuning unless it's boosted and, therefore, needs a modified ECU and/or a piggyback system anyway. Jim Wolf is the only source on that. You might squeek out a few extra ponies from the stock engine setup with SAFCII tuning, but it wouldn't be worth the price.

I am going to be dealing with an SR20DET so the ability to tune would be great if i had the option. How well do the SAFC's work in Nissans because they weren't really all that much help in Honda applications. I almost feel like I would be taking a step back running something like that after using full featured ROM editors in several of my cars.

An SAFC will tune whatever you've got reliably.

In the case of a DET, the best option is a JWT-tuned ECU from your G20 or a 91-94 SE-R. Just tell them the particulars and they can map out what you need.

Found a few options for Nissan Rom editors so i'm going to skip the safc and do it the right way. Thanks anyway.
