Mustang EcoBoost By Bisimoto
The
Ford Motor Company Mustang is a perennial favorite at the annual show of the
Specialty Equipment Market Association, thanks mostly to the easy ability to
generate big power numbers from the car’s engines plus the wide range of
aftermarket firms supporting it. Eight such firms have now previewed modified
Mustangs they plan to bring to this year’s SEMA show, which runs from November
3-6 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
The
highlight is the sinister Mustang EcoBoost from Bisimoto. Known for its prowess
in extracting huge power numbers from four-cylinder engines, it appears
Bisimoto wasted no time in designing and developing upgrades for the new
Mustang EcoBoost. The company has managed lift output of the car’s turbocharged
2.3-liter four-cylinder engine to a staggering 900 horsepower close to three
times stock.
The numerous modifications were required to reach the 900-hp figure. Some of the
key mods include a Turbonetics turbocharger, Five O Motorsport fuel injectors,
reinforced internals from Arias Pistons, an Infinity 6 ECU and Bisimoto’s own
intake and exhaust systems. Lowered suspension comes from KW, and to get that
race car look the designers added an AirDesign body kit and 19-inch Fifteen52
Tarmac wheels.
Another
impressive ride is the Mustang EcoBoost from the men and women at Drag Racing
Against Gangs and Graffiti (DRAGG). Its designers haven’t gone for big power
but there’s still some impressive mods such as an intercooler from Vortech
Engineering, a Borla cat-back exhaust, a new intake and ECU tuning by
AmericanMuscle and a full carbon fiber body kit, once again from AirDesign.
