Forget expensive engine/trans/exhaust mods. Just trim the fat, e.g. take the rear seat out, the spare tire, replace the hood with a lighter carbon fiber or the whole body with same material, etc... Trim the weight underneath by replacing parts of steel, e.g., control arms, with performance parts made of aircaft aluminum, steel props/driveshafts with carbon fiber types, heavy wheels with wider performance wheels (lighter and uses less rubber), etc. You can also get rid of horse-pulling overhead like the air conditioning and Power Steering to divert the extra power to pull the car instead. And, don't forget to add some lightweight stabilizer rods now that your car is 600lb lighter. No Brembos needed since your car is lighter. Not only you'll get a faster car on 1st, you've got a street legal car that can race all day. And gets better at MPG too. You're greener.

You have a 1991 Ford Explorer and the speedometer seems to read faster than vehicle is traveling How do you calibrate a speedometer?

First, make sure the vehicle has the right size tires. Look on the door plate or in the glove box to find the size recommendations. If the tires are sized correctly, the speedometer cable gear can be changed to affect the speedometer displayed speed. Remove the cable where it enters the transmission tailshaft, count the number of teeth and get a different size gear depending on whether you want the speedometer to display faster or slower. If the speedometer is showing slower than you are actually travelling, get fewer teeth on a replacment gear. If the speedometer is showing faster than you are actually travelling get a gear with MORE teeth on the replacment gear.
