lol, thats pretty much because there are no performance parts for a 2.3, but i have some sites that have to do with a 2.3T and they are basicly for the 80's Thunderbirds with 2.3Ts and SVO's, if you want i will give you two sites, one has info about doing an engine swap for car that has the same horsepower as a 5.0 and the other is performance parts for that stuff.

I looked at Competition Cams, and they have a good selection of cams for the 2.3. There are also a lot of 2.3 Ranger headers on E-Bay, but although they'll bolt to the engine, I'm not sure how well they'll fit the car. The converter is pretty close to the manifold, and it could be a pain to modify the exhaust for that header. You could try a cold air induction setup, but I'm not sure if the 2.3 draws enough air to benfit from that. A K&N filter in the stock airbox may do the same thing. I'm looking at the camshafts though, because they're smog legal. Now if you don't have to be smog legal, then the fun begins!
