2007 Ford Mustang Drivetrain Upgrades – Accelerate Your Life
Improving The Drivetrain Efficiency Is As Good As Adding More Horsepower And Torque.
Speed is addictive, and we’re always striving to go quicker and faster, and it seems to be getting easier in the modern world. Take, for example, the ‘07 Mustang GT featured on these pages. Last year, we added a Ford Racing Performance Parts supercharger kit, Steeda 10-rib pulley upgrade, custom tuning (Diablo-Sport), and a set of drag radials. That led us down a path of mid-11s with a best of 11.49 at 119 mph (with 479 rwhp through the stock automatic).

We love a good project around here and while we’re constantly building or modifying our Fords, oftentimes delays and the real world get in the way of timely completion. We’re often quite jealous of the owners we talk to who tell us they restored and modified their classic Mustang or Ford in a scant eight months. OK, jealous might be too light a word here, but we’ve had cars sit for eight months waiting on parts or to be painted and this guy got his whole car done in that time? Ouch! Of course, in these cases, said owner is usually a “jack of all trades” and handled his own paint and bodywork, engine build, fabrication, wiring, and more, so that really cuts out a lot of middle men. Often these projects come to a timely finale because the owner has the time and the wallet to go along with the skill set, making us all the more jealous! So when we got a call from Chris Alston, head honcho of Chassisworks, VariShock, and Total Control Products (TCP) about the transformation of a ‘65 Mustang coupe into a handling, turning, and stopping sensation, our interest was piqued.
