Bondocougar Digital Speedo Mod...

Did the Bondocougar W2 jumper speedo mod last week. Works great! I've had the display up to 135 MPH (I have 3.55 gears and a stock speedo gear so I wasn't really going that fast.)

The site admin should take that old thread and make it a sticky on this board. I'd hate to see that Mod fall into oblivion...

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

so what's the fastest that everyones had their  speedo read (actual speed) since doing the mod. 125m/h is my best (car needs repairs) :toilet:

I hit 132mph uphill! I was surprised because it only hit about 3200rpm's. I was still in a fairly sweet spot. scared the shiznit out of me and I will never do it again. I gave up before the car would. My freind bet me that my car wouldnt even hit 100mph. Wow I am stupid.60 miles an hour over in a 75...... :brick:
