I'm a SRT owner. But if I had a mustang, AM would be the first aftermarket place I'd chose from..iv put all of my friends with mustangs onto AM..love watching these vids
Thanks so much, H Mack! We really appreciate it. Give us a call one day if you pick up a Mustang. We still have respect for the SRT line of vehicles, though! -Chris
I own a 97 Cobra so I am probably biased but it seems like these cars are the long forgotten cars that do not get much love when it comes to these types of video. I have literally watched everyone one AM's videos and even though the same concepts apply across the board it would be appreciated to see something made for that specific generation of Cobra. Thanks AM for consistently creating great content!
Thanks for the nice words and the support Chris! Going fast and making power really isn't a big mystery, as you pointed out. Whether you're working with a V6, GT or Cobra, It all boils down to the same tactics- force more air into & out of the motor and get the power down to the ground. I'm glad you are enjoying the vids and we'll work on getting something going for the older Cobra's. Thanks again! -Justin
No Problem! You all do a great job displaying a knowledge of the product as well as professionalism. Its just something about seeing your own ride being talked about that makes it all better.
Chris, what about doing a build on a 60's mustang or something with a carbureted 302? I have a 68 cougar and looking for ideas. Thanks for posting amazing videos!
what kinda rwhp can I expect with the jlt intake, Ford racing cobra jet throttle body and a bama tune? I'm looking to getting a 2012 Shelby gt500 in the next few weeks. Awesome videos guys
Love the videos, but I would really appreciate some power pack videos of the 96-98 cobras since I did a cobra swap on my 98 gt. Thanks love the vids keep em coming :)
XxMammalxX That's something I'm happy to have recommended to the Video Team as we're always looking for great new builds! Thanks for your feedback! -Alex
I don't really think CAI and tune is enough to be called a "pack" I would have gone with just two stages of power packs so that more can be in each pack instead of stretching the mods you are going to do so thinly. Same could be said for the 08 gt500 videos as well.
I hear what you are saying- but try to look at these bolt-on build ups, not as a typical project car build, but more of 'customer' approach to modding. I'll be the first to admit, its always fun to throw 5-10+ different parts on at once, as is the case with most of our project cars, however a majority of our customers tend to 'chip away' at mods- and 9 times out of 10, most look to a cold air intake and tune first. And ultimately, when you throw a bunch of mods on at once, you can sometimes lose track of the benefits of each individual part. So we really want to highlight that it doesn't take much to see MASSIVE gains with these Shelby's. Hope that makes sense! -Justin
AmericanMuscle.com You bring up some very valid points. And another thing I didn't even think of is cost. I bet most people like you said gradually mod because of financial reasons. I know thats what I am doing :) It makes perfect sense thanks Justin!
So where are y'all getting 93 octane and how much are you paying for it? Would this tune REQUIRE 93 . . . or can you get by with 91 and make a little less power?
utopia vanished, our stock results were definitely on the high end. This thing was a little bit of a "factory freak". A typical 2010-2012 GT500 puts down about 465-495 stock, depending on what dyno, what conditions, etc. We put down over 503, so that definitely killed our gains. Most people will see closer to 50HP gains and will dyno stock around 485 or so! Hope this helps! -Chris
There was ALOT of small changes to the 2011 from the 2010. Exhaust was one of the big things. Also wideband O2 sensors. Plus, Cast iron block to aluminum block.
The 10+ GT500's come with a factory ram-air style intake which accounts for most of the stock 50hp bump in power over the 07-09's. The factory ram-air intake however is still slightly more restrictive and smaller than the JLT thus only a 20hp bump in power which half of that is from the tune. The older 07-09 used a traditional style intake that actually draws cooler air but is much much more restrictive.
Jordan Guida You gotta pay to play, Jordan! Power isn't easy to come by with these cars as they're so well built. You won't really get a cheaper 30+ RWHP then a Bama tune and supporting mods! Hope this helps. -Dan

They got SRT parts
@@Nonyabis-l7w now they didn’t back then tho
Terminator build would be the coolest thing!

hoping for termi or mach 1 build
TeViiNz That's a Great recommendation! Keep an eye out for it
- Alex
TERMI build has to be next!
Osvaldo Salinas ;-) I'm hoping so as well ! -Alex
Chris, what about doing a build on a 60's mustang or something with a carbureted 302? I have a 68 cougar and looking for ideas. Thanks for posting amazing videos!
It scares me to think what you guys will come up with for the 2013-14 cars dear god!
Stay tuned... We're going for 700HP at the tires! -Chris
They already have the power pack videos out for the 13-14 GT500.
Loving all the bolt on vids lately keep up the great work AM!
Thanks Jeramy! -Justin
Damn that GT500 ran wayyyyyy better than I expected. Is a whipple on its “bolt on” list?
U install a cold air intake and u need a custom tune ?
what kinda rwhp can I expect with the jlt intake, Ford racing cobra jet throttle body and a bama tune? I'm looking to getting a 2012 Shelby gt500 in the next few weeks. Awesome videos guys

I wait impatiently for the stage 3
aziz pwr Stay Tuned We definitely have some exciting parts on the way! -Alex
Brother where is your shop
I so thought they were going to do a termi build after so many comments I saw about it
Stay tuned, Elijah Wash! -Chris
Does the bama tune remove the speed governor?

When can we expect stage 2? My buddy has a 500 and he's on the fence about a pulley/other mods. Looking for something to convince him.
AV8R Stay Tuned! ;-) -Alex
So where are y'all getting 93 octane and how much are you paying for it? Would this tune REQUIRE 93 . . . or can you get by with 91 and make a little less power?
93 is common in the south especially texas we don't have 91
When are you guys going to do 2014 GT500? I'm having a hard time for my right now.
Stay tuned this week, DCIROCK23! -Chris
Do cobra builds AM thanks!
This might be right around the corner! -Chris
Wow this makes me think how restrictive the 07-09 intake is compared to these.
utopia vanished, our stock results were definitely on the high end. This thing was a little bit of a "factory freak". A typical 2010-2012 GT500 puts down about 465-495 stock, depending on what dyno, what conditions, etc. We put down over 503, so that definitely killed our gains.

what rims are those on the background? the other blue stang
Those are the 13-14 Shelby GT500 Style wheels. -Justin
Is there a reason why the '10 gt500 only made 20hp with the intake and the '07 gt500 picked up over 50 horsepower!?!
There was ALOT of small changes to the 2011 from the 2010. Exhaust was one of the big things. Also wideband O2 sensors. Plus, Cast iron block to aluminum block.
The 10+ GT500's come with a factory ram-air style intake which accounts for most of the stock 50hp bump in power over the 07-09's.

The older 07-09 used a traditional style intake that actually draws cooler air but is much much more restrictive.
Look at the stock intake designs for the 07-09, and the 10-12. World difference. It’s why the 07-09 gains more. The 10-12 starts with more.
HeyJustin what mustangs do you own yourself ?
Stay tuned Eduardo! :) -Justin
"So we can get a tune for all of our new mods" .... Put a cold air intake on
Its not even worth a video....
it shows how much power each mod gives you
503 whp is like 600 go at the crank 😳😳
So for roughly $1000 I can gain 30hp to my car... I'm not sure I'm convinced
Jordan Guida You gotta pay to play, Jordan! Power isn't easy to come by with these cars as they're so well built. You won't really get a cheaper 30+ RWHP then a Bama tune and supporting mods! Hope this helps. -Dan
Great ;)
If you were local, i'd donate my 04 Cobra for the build.
Power pack. Installs air intake.
30 extra horsepower isn't really noticeable on a 500HP car.
Trust me it is.
