I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

I am just wondering where to get the 140mph speedo that I have seen in a few T-Birds? I am amusing they are coming from the mustangs.
I have a 92 5.0 and yes I know I am currently speed limited due to the factory program in the ecu, but this is gonna change soon :burnout:
