Tune Port Injection
Tuned Port motors make more low end torqure than the TBI units. Arizona Speed & Marine and TPI Specialtys have high performance parts for those motors. TPI Spec. has nice cams for the motors.

So basically if I get an 87 or 88 Iroc Z tuned port setup and swap it onto my burb, I'd be alot happier over stock? Is it just bolt-on?

The tuned port LT-1 350 in my kids big 'ol caprice gives him 25-26 MPG on the highway. I would be surprised if you sould just plug and play unless sombody makes a conversion kit.
