Up for sale is my 2005 Mustang GT premium convertible. I've owned here since 2009. Dyno tuned by AED in Cameron Park. Their shop was recently featured in an article in Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords. Dynoed her when I had first gotten the Procharger with the Diablosport tune that came with the kit. At the time she was only seeing 5lbs of boost because of the exhaust, intake, and headers. Put down 398hp at 5PSI. Decided to get an SCT tuner, to be able to tune better. Also got a smaller pulley to get to 10PSI, and laid down 478rhwp. But the injectors were maxed out, and the discussion of E85 was brought up. I ordered a set of 80lb Ford Racing injectors, and a stainless steel fuel filter. First pull on gas, 491rwhp. Then switched over to E85. Tuned her to 523.2rwhp and 513.9ftlbs at only 22 degrees of timing! Then the fuel pump maxed out. Luckily a friend of mine had a GT500 setup, so I bought that from him. Haven't had the time to install it yet. Shaun that tuned her, said that "with another 5-6 degrees, you'd see maybe 40-60 more horses". Knowing the limitations of the stock blocks, I decided to run her on the gas tune, and not push my luck and end up blowing her to pieces. The SCT tuner comes preloaded with the E85 tune, and gas tune. Also, another tune, that'll help you run the fule pum, in case you want to empty the tank to switch to E85. Just disconnect the feed at the rail, and turn the key. If I were to keep it, the next step would be a forged rotating assembly, and more BOOOST!!!! She drives just like a stock GT, until you plant the right foot to the floor! Even with the stiff SPEC clutch, my wife has no problem driving it.

In the time that I've had her, I have spent a small fortune on upgrades and modifications. Started with suspension and brake upgrades late 2011. Then it went downhill from there! Supercharger, clutch, GT500 conversion, etc. She has Bilstein shocks and struts. Ford Racing 1" lowering springs, and swaybars. Adjustable in the front. DBA gold rotors, and Hawk pads - stops on a dime! Spec stage 3+ clutch. Procharger 1FP214-SCI HO kit. C&L intake. GT500 throttle body. Edelbrock headers. Granatelli 3" stainless steel exhaust. Dual oil separators - 1 on each side. Remote dual oil filter setup, and oil cooler.  (Increased the capacity by 3qts) Plus a TON of other bits and pieces! 

I had an in dash DVD/GPS unit in her. But the unit started acting up, so I installed the stock Shaker 1000 system. I had also gotten upgraded door speakers, Rockford Fosgate 6x8, and Pyramid subs. Since there was an aftermarket headunit in there, she is wired front to back. Battery in the trunk, and 4 channels (2 sets of RCA) run. Also remote power signal, signal for backup camera, camera mounted in the bumper, and video cable for it. Lastly, 2 sets of speaker wires, to hook up for the front speakers, if an amp is trunk mounted. Right now it's running off the stock Shaker amps. Sounds awesome! When I put the stock unit back in, I bought an aftermarket harness to enable me to plug in my ipod/iphone. When I did, the radio resets the time every time I start the car. Comes back to 12:00. Not sure if that's the adapter, or the radio. Everything works fine on it, just strange that it resets.

Last fall I sold off all the stock front pieces, and did a GT500 conversion. Found a used Trufiber knockoff hood locally. Then sourced the rest online. With that install, I got custom stripes cut. Running down the sides along the doors - custom cutout that reads SUPERCHARGED, then CORNFED GT. Up the fender, (Ford Racing logo) curves on the hood, Procharger logo, etc. and down the center. I got enough material cut, that the next owner can continue the stripes down on the bumper, and also for the trunk if he/she chooses. Also painted the inside of the hood, coated with flat clear.

She is coming up on 61K. She had 30K when I bought her. She's been to Boston, Grand Canyon, Las Vegas twice, and Seattle. She shows normal wear for her age. 2 dings that I can think of. 1 on the passenger fender, by the stripe. About an inch long. A bicycle fell over in the garage, and the handlebar knicked the GT. The other on the drivers side rear fender, about a dime size. Tried to take a picture of it, but couldn't get my camera to focus right. Paint is fine there. I try to stay on top of rock chips with a touch up brush.

Comes with the stock intake manifold and stock throttle body. Also available the stock rear taillights. When I had the exhaust installed, also made catless downpipes with V-bands. 5 minute swap!

On Jul-29-13 at 02:02:26 PDT, seller added the following information:

Forgot a couple of things. When I had the clutch installed, I also got a new master cylinder, slave cylinder, and an upgraded stainless steel braided line. This helps with reducing flex in the line, common in the OEM plastic line under high line pressure. Also, the Procharger was installed at at 56K miles. Haven't even had a chance to do the 6000 mile oil change in the headunit. So it's practically brand new! I still have the remaining bottles of oil that came with the kit from Procharger that'll come with the car. Also, I have installed red LED lights for the driver and passenger footwells. Can be turned on with a switch in the console. Discretely lights up the floor. Handy at night if you drop something. Or out cruising, gives it a certain ambiance!

Chip Ganassi Racing switches to the Ford EcoBoost-powered Riley Daytona Prototype

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (CGRFS) announced yesterday at Ford's SEMA press conference that it will field a Ford-Riley Daytona Prototype with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 in the 2014 United SportsCar Championship (USCC). CGRFS is the second team to commit to the new Ford-Riley car, behind Michael Shank Racing (which has already used the racecar to break a 26-year-old top-speed record at Daytona International Speedway).
"Over the last 10 seasons we have been able to experience a great deal of success in Grand-Am," Chip Ganassi says, "and now with the dawn of the new United SportsCar Championship we feel that Ford power will be a key ingredient to writing the next chapter of our sports car program."
In the last Grand-Am season, CGRFS raced a BMW-Riley Daytona Prototype. The team has won seven Daytona Prototype championships, all in the past ten years. Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas return as the team's prototype co-drivers, and will attend their maiden race in the Ford-Riley at the Rolex 24 at Daytona in January.

Monsoon rains disrupt production for Ford, BMW in India

Wed, Dec 2 2015

Even modern production techniques can be stymied by Mother Nature. This was demonstrated most recently in India, as torrential, monsoon rains caused a deluge that forced multiple automakers to suspend production. Ford, Renault, and BMW all halted work at their Indian facilities around the southern city of Chennai, also known as Madras. The annual rains disrupted public transport around the city, preventing employees from making the trek into city's factories. According to Automotive News, Chennai saw 48 inches of precipitation last month alone, which is more than Seattle, WA saw in all of 2014. While Ford and BMW closed things down for all of December 1, Renault just cancelled a pair of shifts at its Chennai factory. This is the second time in the past month that automakers in southeast India have been forced to stop production due to severe flooding, and things aren't likely to improve. According to The Weather Channel, forecasts call for thunderstorms over five of the next seven days, while the chance of rain won't fall below 80 percent until December 8. Ford, Renault, and BMW are far from the only automakers that could stand to be impacted by the rains. The city has been nicknamed "The Detroit of India" for its extreme automotive presence. Daimler, Hindustan, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, and Nissan all own factories in the region.

Ford gives police chiefs tech to surveil officers in their own cars

Tue, 28 Oct 2014

Police officers certainly have a difficult job in keeping the streets safe, but as public employees in positions of authority, there is still a very real need for oversight. To that end, Ford is partnering with a tech company to offer a new system called Ford Telematics for Law Enforcement on its line of Police Interceptor patrol vehicles that could make cops safer, while giving cities a better idea of what its officers are doing.
The system streams live data about cruisers back to the home base to people like the police chief or shift supervisor. That info includes expected things like speed, location and cornering acceleration, but it gets incredibly granular as well, with records of things like if emergency lights are on, or even if an officer is wearing a seatbelt.
Ford Telematics for Law Enforcement "ought to protect officers as much as it protects the public," said Ford spokesperson Chris Terry to Autoblog. Constantly monitoring patrol cars offers cities a lot of advantages, too. First, it reduces potential liability because a department can prove where each vehicle is at all times. Also, officers know they are being watched and may potentially drive more safely.
