While the special edition 2018 JackHammer is based on the Mustang GT, at its core lies a Roush TVS 2650 supercharger boosting power all the way up to a Hellcat-beating 710 horses. Buying this kit will set you back US$ 14,765, and on top of that, it’s available only for Fastback Mustangs, be it a 6-speed manual or a 10-speed automatic version.
