Im going to have my plugs replaced next week by a shop in my home town. I need to tell my rents (the ones who are going to pay for the change as an early xmas gift) what the shop can expect for work. Mainly they need to know if the engine needs to come out to access the plugs or not. How much of the engine needs to come off before the fuel rails are accessible? heres a pic of the engine!

I can't just slap on a Turbo can I? Well it has 140,000 miles on it but the engine was rebuild 40k ago and the rearend was rebuilt 2k ago. I found a Garrett BHT3B Turbo brand new that somebody was going to turbo there mustang with but they decided to go with twin turbos. Could I use it?

It has Cooper ZR1 Tires on the front, and i forget whats on the rear but there decent. I Just recently had a Zoom Racing clutch put into it double sided kevlar. I have a question about it, It vibrates while letting it out does anybody know why is that normal? And I'm going to be putting a Pro shifter 5.0 short throw, and a SCT Tuner(preloaded). SLP Loudmouth 1 Catback, SLP Shorty X Pipe(catted), SLP Coated long tube headers, JLT CAI. Anybody have any of these or friends with these mods if so let me know what you think and if i'll see a huge gain.

I still have to replace the air filter but I sprayed the IAC and throttle body so its idling a little better now. Ive got a check engine light which after owning three of these things doesnt surprise me at all. These engines throw codes if the wind blows. Obviously im not a mechanic, so I dont have a diagnostic machine, and I dont know when Ill be able to get it plugged in but until then I wonder if someone who has one of these could tell me what it might be. It runs on 93, daily driven, synthetic oil changes done regularly, everything else under the hood has been there since the car was made. I drive it mildly and it hard shifts obviously with stop-go traffic and 35 mph speed limits but I open it up whenever I can. I planned on getting rid of this car this year but I may have to keep it for another year with the way banks are these days, so i wanna keep it running good. Help appreciated.

Didn't even go over 1600 rpms really for the whole trip. 55 mph on cruise control. Now I know the guy before me really didn't take good care of the car, and I know I need an oil change. Aside from that I'm going to change my fuel filter, and possibly spark plugs. Well I will for when I get a smaller pulley. Anything else you guys can think of for a small tune up to get her running the way she's supposed to again with better mpg?
