Your going to want to replace the spark plugs, the wires, the distributor cap and rotor. Check the timing. Replace the air filter. Replace the gas filter if it has more than 50,000 miles on it. Check your belts (2 if you have A/C, 1 if you don't) Check for loose or missing or melted vacuum lines. Check the EGR tube to see if it is cracked and leaking. Replace the ECR valve if over 50,000 miles since its last replacement.

Drive to nearest car shop, Hand over keys, Money, and car and say "Tune-Up Please!"

The Fiero V6 2.8L engine produced a peak-corrected horsepower of 110 at 4500 rpm, significantly lower than the advertised 125hp. per dyno-testing of a stock 2m6. The Fiero 4-cyl 2.5L engine produced a peak-corrected horsepower of 85 at 4500 rpm, significantly lower than the advertised 92hp. per dyno-testing of a stock 2m4. Addition of turbo/superchargers has increased effective horsepower up to 30% without compromising engine integrity.
