Message	I have been z-less for about 7 months, & found a 90tt for sale locally. The seller bought the car with a bad piston, had all machine work done, and reassembled it- mostly. The upper plenum is not installed, and everything needs to be hooked up still. The car has been sitting like this for about 4 years - is this bad? Or should everything be ok as long as engine turns with appropriate force? I will double check timing belt if I buy it to make sure it's on correctly. Also the car has bigger injectors on it but a stock ECU. Will it drive ok like this or require a tune to run appropriately to compensate for the larger injectors?
