evillally May 10th, 2004, 05:38 AM What mods have you done on your 95-02 Conti? What parts are interchangeable parts from other DOHC 4.6L's?
I just bought my Conti this weekend, and after I pay some bills, I'm planning some mods to make for some extra horses and torque. I'd like to know other Conti oweners' results and how much you spent.
Thanks! :Beer
evillally May 28th, 2004, 06:28 AM How about superchargers for the Conti...anyone?
NO1GRAM May 28th, 2004, 08:19 PM Why do you feel the need for extra horses and torque on your 2002 Cont??
Mine has plenty of power. :L
Sifrino3 May 28th, 2004, 08:32 PM You always need more power. Even if yoiu have 600hp. You want 700hp. Thats how it works.

Exactly! :I :Beer
Sifrino3 May 30th, 2004, 08:52 PM Just buy some exhaust parts. Mufflers, y-pipe or xpipe, and some tips. Go to a custom exhaust shop and get it done. Go get some gears and a torque converter and you will be on your way to being alot faster! K&N Filter, remove the restrictor. there is alwayz one. Cut it out, un bolt it. How ever it is hooked up!
WackyWRZ May 30th, 2004, 10:59 PM Maybe even a chip. Geno at www.lincolnmotorsport.com should have some conti parts.
Sifrino3 May 31st, 2004, 09:46 AM A chip would be very good. If they made them. Also, clean up your ignition system with new wires plugs and dist rotor.
ND4SPDLSC October 5th, 2004, 09:30 PM Superchips' chip is suppose to actually work on the car. The K & N filter and removed air silencer don't help noticeably. Redoing the exhaust probably would to a degree, but you want something with some restriction for torque. There isn't a lot of parts you can use on the engine, but cross referencing Cobra parts will help. A big throttle body or a 3" dual exhaust won't do you any good. I'd add a big transmission cooler and change the oil to Mobil 1 with a Mobil 1 filter before doing anything else. The cooler is definitely a good idea. Ford detuned the engine at first because of reliability concerns.
2001continental March 2nd, 2005, 08:37 AM i still trying to remember what site i seen it on, but anyway this guy had a chip installed on his conti, said it improved quite a bit.
78_TownCar_460 March 2nd, 2005, 09:36 AM Drop a cobra engine in there.
purelux March 9th, 2005, 01:41 PM Superchips is a very mild chip hardly worth the cost. Try superchips custom tuner Jerry the main tuner used to work for raush pr however its spelled. They do very good work, also dennis reinhart is good as well.
