possible to convert to OBD2

PoweredByOreos · February 9th, 2007, 02:20 AM

I bought an 89 2.3L mustang a few weeks back and swapped a 5.0 from a 90 into it ealier this week. Well i was wondering if its possible to convert my car to an OBD2 setup to make it compliant with a SCT XCal 2.

No it won't be possible, however you can still get a chip for you're current ECU or get a FAST or some other standalone computer system if you're wanting more control.

THE ONLY THING CLOSE WOULD BE A 97-02 V8 EXPLORER WHICH WAS OBD2 BUT EXPENSIVE AND POINTLESS.JUST SAVE YOUR MONEY AND CHIP IT

Not worth the time or the effort. Spend a grand and get a Anderson Ford Motorsport PMS. Best money I ever spent. Oh yeah gonna cost ya another $450 for a wideband o2.. Never need a dyno again unless you want to know how much HP you have...
