Default Modification limits of stock N/A computer for 1991-1993 Mustang LX 2.3

Hello All,

I'm looking at picking up at 91-93 Mustang 2.3/5 Speed and am curious of the limits of the stock computer. I'm looking at doing basic mods to the stock motor and stock computer while building a 2.5 possibly with a Folvo setup.

Can the stock computer handle ported Intake, aftermarket exaust (2.25/Ranger header), and a cam? The swapped motor is going to be running megasquirt/Dizzy setup at this time for simplification of tuning; possibly moving on to a COP or EDIS setup. Will the stock computer/sensor/ignition handle these kinds of mods? Would I be alright running a small (50-75 Wet) nitrous kit with these computers? I'm aware of the fact that I would be running cast pistons and the like, but this motor will get torn down this winter.

Thanks

Ok, I am a little confused on what set you have, and the one you are going to install.
In addition, what is a Folvo? Do you mean Volvo?
You can do the intake and other mods on a stock computer, but if using the header you will need a provision for an O2 sensor.
How do you intend to set up a wet nitrous system?

Folvo being a Volvo 16V head off of a B234F. Ford+Volvo=Folvo
Wet nitrous kit being a Fuel and N02 Vs. a dry kit which is Nitrous and running the extra fuel through the stock fuel system.
