Mustang Computer in Lincoln
 
What will happen if I put a 97 Mustang Computer in a 97 Lincoln, since
they basically have the same engines.

Firmer shifting?

Will the top end speed increase?

Maybe, but the ECU from an Interceptor(140 mph+) would be mapped out
much better for the TownCar. Neither would likely work in the
Continental(4.6? Yes. Same engine? No.).

How is it not the same engine. It's a Dohc V-8. Look it up.

Continental is DOHC, transverse installation, front wheel drive, on a
Taurus/Sable front subframe, much different transmission & calibration.

TownCar is a SOHC, RWD, same basic transmission as Mustang, calibrated
quite differently & purpose built to the platform.

But we were talking about engines. Not that other stuff.

OK...

Continental is DOHC, transverse installation, front wheel drive,
(substantially different engine)completely different calibration.

TownCar is a SOHC, Rear Wheel Drive,(substantially different engine),
completely different calibration.

That "other stuff" is all run by the computer, so don't discount or
ignore it.

Its hard to say. If you are after more performance then just have an
add-on chip burned. Your results will be much more satisfying and less
risky.

How do I get an add on chip burned?
