I have read a ton of the posts and how to guides and I Just want to make sure I have every thing I need to start burning a chip for my car please let me know if I need any thing else. This is what I have so far or have ordered and will be getting soon:
1. Transtronics pocket Programer
2. Transtronics UV-eprom eraser
3. Tuner cat Tuner & Definition file for 87 TPI GTA
4. Do I need the tuner cat TDF editor if so I will have to get it
5. I also have a lo pro zif soket and two 27c128A-120 EPROMs
6. I have a scan tool it a had held but it will do until I get a laptop
Hopefully this is all I need and will soon be on my way to being able to tune my car to its fullest potential.

 

You'd probably be happier going with the calibration for a 89 MY car, ie using the 6E ID Mask.
Instead of an eraser you can use flash proms, there are numerous posts on doing that.

Still need a stop watch or something to actually measure performance, butometers just ain't accurate enough.
