I've been wondering about...
-Getting an OBD device.
-Learning to chip tune (ECU remap) cars.
Not very nice to say, but judging from the folks talk to that do this - it can't be all that hard.
It's not rocket science. Listen to the people who have blown up engines like yours, take it slow, and you'll be fine. Modern cars have knock sensors that do a good job of saving you from a bad tune, but you can still break rods and pistons if you mess up.

For an example of listening to people who have been there, my car needs an upgraded high pressure cam fuel pump before you add much power at all, or it will run lean and go boom. I found that out reading the forum. Other people found out by venting their block.

I used Cobb access port, but go with whatever is supported most for your car.
