That's with Ford Racing stuff...other aftermarket tends to be a bit more aggressive too.

A few thoughts..

It doesn't say if the 5.0 was a manual or not, and if so, if it was a GT PP or not.

My guess is that it was NOT a GTPP due to the use of DragStar wheels. It looks like all of them have a rear subframe upgrade and half-shaft upgrade, the Half Shafts are in the FRPP catalog.

Thoughts?

Error not quite.

The write up missed the ARH Longtubes. But basically it looks like it's just a full exhaust swap, tune, heavier rear subframe half shafts and wheels+slicks.

It's still impressive considering how conservative FRPP really is

"The truth will set you free".

So...a little more than just "tune 'n tires", right?

Here's the video:

I assume you're talking about the 5.0 because that's the one I saw tune and tires for before, right? If so, it's really not much more than that. Take out the safety equipment and you have

- Performance Rear Subframe Kit
- Heavy Duty Half-Shaft Kit
- Prototype Off-Road Exhaust
- Ford Racing Development Engine Calibration
- Hoosier Drag Racing Slicks (Rear)
- Wels-Racing AlumaStar Drag Wheels (Rear)

I am wondering if the half-shafts need to be upgraded or if they just did it to make sure they could launch it balls-out all day and not worry. If they are needed that will be an issue for the drag race folks.

Auto 11-14 coyotes do this with THE right tune, cai, and offroad x...not really impressed with this newer mustang. Im sure it will be a nicer riding car but the looks of it are too generic.

Funny how khell86's picture and the video do NOT match...what happened to the listing for the FRONT ALUMASTARS?! And how much weight do THEY save?! Did they use those on the others' too?! Front stabilizer disconnected?! What ELSE, not listed?!

If you watch the video, "now you see 'em, now you DON'T"!

More Ford misinformation...

I really don't care if the 2015 isn't faster in a straight line than the outgoing one; it's the handling that is much improved. Besides, I'm sure once the 6th gen Camaro comes out the Mustang will get a conveniently timed boost in power.

I'm actually not interested in the GT at all this time around. I want that flat plane crank 5.2.
