Yeah, go to mustangsunlimited.com and order a catalog. They have a couple little things in the back of their book that would help your car out (i did them to mine). For example... 1.Use a digital volt meter to measure the TPS, it should be between.997-.999, and 1.10-1.25 on supercharged engines. (The TPS is located on the top of the TB). 2. Remove your air silencer. 3. Use a 180 degree thermostat, it will cause your engine to run richer thus producing more power. 4. Remove the insulation under the carpet in the hatch area on hatchback models, its usually about 15 or so pounds. They have some more stuff like bumping your timing up to 19 degrees at max, ect..... good stuff.

Just a side not, there is no difference in TPS setting between .94-.99 volts. Anything over 1 volts will be bad, and .99 is dangoursly close to the level you don't want to be at.

Also, you can remove rear seats, disconnect PS/AC etc for more power, and remove the sway bar for about 40 lbs.
