2011 Geiger Mustang GT

Although Ford has a strong handle on the American Muscle Car title with the 2011 Mustang GT, the car is not just for the United States.  A foreign tuner known as Geiger Cars has announced their own special edition 2011 Mustang GT, crammed full of goodies, including a super charger.

Go fast goodies on the 2011 Mustang tuned by Geiger include a 2.3 liter super charger that pushes the 5.0 engine to 500 horsepower.  In addition, Geiger has removed the speed limiter and claim a top speed now of up 170 mph.

In addition to power add ons, Geiger has outfitted the 2011 Mustang with some new shoes.  The rims are called OZ Ultralegerra and are extremely light weight, but not small on size.  Wheel sizes for the front are 8.5″ x 20″ and 10″x20″ in the back.  The wheels set the 2011 Mustang GT off from the rest of the pack and will hopefully continue to popularize the Pony car in Europe.

2011 Mustang GT Direct Fuel Injection?

It’s the first I’ve heard of an upgrade coming to an already massively upgraded engine, direct fuel injection for the new 5.0?  According to an author over at TheTruthAboutcars.com, he’s warning new Mustang buyers to hold off on dropping the cash on a new 5.0 powered 2011 Mustang Gt.  The reason, he claims, is that Ford will be upgrading the motor again, this time with direct fuel injection, in the near future.

The proof of upcoming direct fuel injection is in a photo taken from the New York Auto Show.  The pic indicates that there is a divot or place in the block to allow easy adaption to a new fuel supply.  Going from the typical manifold fuel injection to direct fuel injection into the cylinder wall will provide increased horsepower and even increased efficiency.  Sounds like a HUGE shoe to fill, considering that Ford has already proved they can get 26+ mpg on the new 400 horsepower 5.0 engine.

At this point it’s obviously just speculation and the picture taken is only from an automotive show, not directly of a torn down 5.0 motor.  Who’s to say that this divot or bump in the casting is even on an actual 5.0 motor?  Personally I’m holding out on actual proof, rather than speculating, no matter how appealing it may be.  Perhaps Ford was scared that Chevy was going to out do the Mustang, so rushed the already awesome 5.0.

2014 will be the 50th Anniversary for the Mustang, which would indicate a good time to throw out another awesome upgrade.  But, who really wants to wait that long for a little extra efficiency and power when you can have the power house that is the 2011 Mustang Gt now?  Not me.

How Much For DUB Package?

The price has been set at $3,699, which is in addition to the standard 2011 Mustang V6 price.  The DUB package, considered an appearance upgrade, is designed and installed through the help of Ford, DUB Magazine, and even Roush.  Featuring body kit, rims, fancy trim, and banners, this is one slick V6 upgrade package.

As mentioned, the DUB Package is almost entirely appearance oriented, there is still one performance option included.  The gear ratio has been upgraded in the 2011 Mustang V6 to 3.31!  This means your 300+ horsepower V6 will be accelerating faster than a stock trim model.  With everything you get, the DUB package is a deal at just $3,699.

First Super Charger For 2011 Mustang GT

ProCharger has tested and released the very first super charger for the 2011 Mustang GT 5.0.  The ProCharger is considered to be the first to market for the 2011 Mustang, because the only other supercharger available now is for the Shelby, which sports a 5.4 liter V8 instead of a 5.0.  ProCharger feels that not only are they the first to market, but because of their 16+ years of experience int eh forced induction market, that theirs will remain the top charger for the new Mustang.

The new supercharger is built around the P-1SC-1 charger, which features an 8 rib drive capable of pushing 7 psi of boost.  This extremely conservative boost figure is capable of adding a whopping 140 hp to your already very capable 5.0 liter engine.

Flavors available for the new ProCharger kit are an HO Intercooled System and available is a complete Tuner Kit.  The Tuner Kit comes with every 2011 Mustang part necessary to install the super charger and start hitting the streets.  Items like a air-to-air intercooler, tubing, brackets, 53 lb injectors, bypass valve, and even a computer programmer comes with the 2011 Mustang GT Tuner Kit.

Be prepared to spend upwards of $5,000-6,000 for this 2011 Mustang 5.0 super charger.
