2015 Ford Mustang GT - 5.0 liter Supercharged V8 - 700HP
The new 6th generation Ford Mustang is going to get a supercharger kit from Whipple. They will offer a 2.9 liter twin-screw supercharger for the V8 5.0 liter engine.
The result is no less than 700HP (522 kW) when running on 91-octane fuel. This is an increase of 280HP, but nothing is mentioned about the torque. The supercharger kit is offered with a standard six-or optional ten-rib belt system along with an aluminum intercooler.
The customers will be able to opt for a 5-year or 100,000-mile engine warranty.
