ABT conversions?

I'm looking at a couple of TQC's that had ABT "Stage 2" conversions done
to them some time ago.  Can anyone tell me specifically what this
implies as to changes involved, engine output, maintainability, and
availability of repair parts or methods of undoing the mods if
necessary?

I assume that this upgrade implied some ECU changes, but how about the
turbo, cam, and other hard parts? Is the engine still diagnosable and/or
repairable if it has problems? Did this conversion imply suspension
changes as well?

Bottom line - is such a car a good deal, or is ABT the long-run kiss of
death for an '83 TQC?

TIA,
