Ford Mustangs come straight from the dealership with 800 hp for $40k
That's a hell of a deal.
Lebanon Ford, for example, likes to supercharge its Mustangs.
In 2016, the Ohio-based dealer could put a customer behind the wheel of a
727-horsepower Mustang, one that definitely rivaled anything
Hellcat-badged from Mopar. This year, there's even more power courtesy,
and the sticker's a reasonable-sounding $39,995.
Lebanon Ford starts with a 2018 Mustang GT,
which they have priced at $31,785. A three-liter Whipple Stage 1
supercharger kit comes on top, giving you five bucks in exchange from
$40k. The end result is 800 horsepower at the crank, and they have the
dyno sheets to prove it. The Whipple blower extracted 775 crank
horsepower out of a test car, and further tuning got it to an even 800.
For any fine tuning needs, a Whipple Tomahawk handheld tuner tool is
included.
There are a few caveats: the supercharger kit kills the Ford powertrain warranty. For a little less than a grand, you can specify a three-year Whipple warranty that covers it. The rest of the car's parts
are still warrantied from factory, Whipple'd or not. Builds begin in
less than a month, with the orders open already. Lebanon Ford says their
"LFP" packages could extend to cars other than the Mustang in the
future.
