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.

Steeda Cold Air Intake Now Available

Steeda has announced the release of their Velocity CAI intake for the 2011 Mustang GT.  Although the research and development took place long before Steeda could get their hands on the new 5.0, their computer assisted design has been spot on.

Like other cold air intakes, the Steeda Velocity cold air intake for the 2011 Mustang allows for easier breathing and smoother air flow into the 5.0 liter engine.  Thanks to the colder air, the condensed air provides for higher horsepower and torque numbers.  To aid in keeping the air cool, Steeda has provided the air intake with a stainless steel shield, which prevents the heat from the engine from seeping back into the intake.

The Steeda CAI tube is referred to as a ProFlow and has been designed to provide the least amount of restriction on the air as it passes through the filter and into the intake.  Although you will see immediate benefits in power numbers by adding the Steeda cold air intake, Steeda still recommends a custom tune be installed along with their bolt on mod.  Specifically, Steeda has partnered with SCT to create custom computer tunes to get the most out of the new 2011 Mustang CAI.

The Steeda Velocity Cold Air Intake combined with an SCT tune has reportedly provided an additional 44 horsepower and 52 ft-lb of torque.

According to Steeda: Steeda’s new Cold Air Kit for the S197 produces the greatest power gains of any Cold Air Kit on the market. Testing has shown increases of up to 38 HP and 30 ft lbs of Torque to the rear wheels with Steeda’s Cold Air Kit combined with our Custom SCT Tune. Steeda’s lifetime filter can be cleaned and re-oiled, but the big news here is that we’ve streamlined the airflow in the S197 Mustang to the point that a computer re-flash isn’t just an option, it’s required! Check out the SCT XCalibrator 3 – the perfect tool for the job with Custom Tunes!;;;;The kit is supplied with a stainless steel air box with built-in velocity stack. It mounts in the factory location with the supplied rubber trim to seal it against the hood & fender to keep the hot air out . Our tests showed inlet temps a mere 5 degrees above ambient temperature. The Steeda Lifetime Filter can easily be cleaned and re-oiled, making maintenance a snap. All hardware required for installation is included in the kit.”

2011 Mustang V6 Parts

With the 2011 Mustang V6 pumping out 300 horsepower it’s actually more potent than previous years V8 Mustangs.  This makes it a viable alternative to the traditionally gas hogging V8.  Performance parts for the 2011 Mustang V6 will most likely start appearing soon, as more and more Stangs start rolling off the dealership floor.  So what will be the first parts replaced or modified on the 2011 V6 Mustang?

Just like the GT there are a number of parts upgrades that are inexpensive and easy enough to change out in the drive way.  Tried and true favorites like CAI (cold air intake) and exhaust components are always the first done.  However, after market parts specialists are struggling to do their research and development because of how radically different the new V6 truly is.

For the first time in Mustang’s history the V6 comes standard with true dual exhaust.  This example and others, to achieve the impressive horsepower and fuel mileage, means that the components are already extremely efficient.  Basically, Ford engineers didn’t leave a lot of power and efficiency on the drawing room floor for aftermarket mod makers to easily improve upon.  No doubt this delay will only be temporary, but as it stands the big names in Mustang parts suppliers have yet to release upgrade components for the 2011 V6 Mustang.

Be sure as soon as 2011 Mustang V6 parts become available that we will be reviewing them here.  Furthermore, we will offer our very own 2011 Mustang Parts store that will compare prices from a number of suppliers, so you know who has what at the best price.  Perhaps now would be a good time to sign up to our RSS feed to get updates delivered directly to your inbox.  Please enter your email in the box to the right to be notified of 2011 Mustang parts releases.
