It's just not possible. You can't do it.

First the CPU itself in MacBook Pro is BGA soldered.
Then it's chipset which is also should be taken into account when upgrading a CPU even when it's not soldered but socketed if can support T7600. It was never meant to be for T9900.

But once again you can't upgrade the CPU in MBP. You can't upgrade GPU either.
Only thing you can do regarding upgrading that computer is adding RAM to 2GB (2x1GB SO-DIMM DDR2-667) and installing SSD in place of HDD.

I have this MBP and I must say SSD will really help it. Max OS is 10.6.8
 
Well I read your link. And now I would say if you have a BGA reflow station and free T7600 in BGA package. And not afraid to loose your A1150 motherboard then go for it and post results.

Still I doubt any economical (performance wise) sense of such an adventure)
