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.

nice lookin car. could it be the same scenario as the 5.0 cats and birds how they got a SO and mustangs got the HO? so that 4.6 is detuned or something? I dunno i dont follow/like the 4.6 unless its in dohc form and thats sometimes still lol.

The Cougar with a 4.6 was rated at 205HP for all years.  1996 was the first year for the 4.6 in a Mustang and they were rated at 215 HP.  I believe the difference was mostly exhaust.
