Default Tuning My Own ECU

I have had alot of time on my hands lately and i have been trying to find effective but cheap ways to kind of make my blazer have alittle more power. and i have came across multiple threads stating Tune your ECU. I have alittle experience doing this on honda civics and i was wondering if i could do the same on my blazer? Does anyone know if i could do it and if i can what program would i use to do the tuning?

It is actually quite easy. Have a look at thirdgen.org or run a search for GM TBI tuning.

I have been looking into it or tuning my 1990 5.7L TBI motor I will be dropping into my K5.

Well now that depends on what year of CPI motor you have. So long as you have a true OBD1 CPI vehicle and not one of the tweener 95's with an OBD1.5 setups, you should be able to do your own programming with utilities that are currently available.
