BMR Tech's S550 Mustang Build: Street/Strip

[BMR Tech]

I have the 3.15.

As for the ET, hard to say. I don't think the DR made much difference, as I don't think the tires would have spun to be honest.

I did take weight out of the car, but it was due to the fact that I had a full as full gets tank of 87 Octane in the car.

We are slowly making progress on our 2015 Mustang. The billet oil pump gears from MMR are in and the timing chains will be going back on soon. After that its time for the timing cover mods and the rest should come together quickly after that.

Attempting to account for the drag radials...

FWIW... comparing your 330 ft to 1/4 mile time to my 2013 Must GT auto w/ 3.15's... we are practically the same. (it ran best 12.86 111 w/ 2.05 60ft)

'15 Automatic GT - 330 ft to 1/4 = 7.253 seconds
'13 Automatic GT - 330 ft to 1/4 = 7.299 seconds (80 deg F, Cecil Co. MD)

Difference = .046 seconds faster for the '15

Now, if we compare my '13 with the Procal tune...
'13 Automatic GT (Procal) - 330 ft to 1/4 = 7.267 seconds (82 deg F, Cecil Co. MD, w/ Procal - best run 12.73 at 111.5 w/ 1.975 60 ft)

Difference = .014 seconds faster for the '15

Since the procal advertises 16 hp increase...my '13 it theoretically 436 hp...pretty close to '15.

However, my '13 is running with 93 octane... BMR was using 87 octane...???

I had a full tank of 87 octane in the car, yes.

I was simply stating that I don't think the DR helped, as I do not believe traction would have been an issue to be honest.

I will say, if you watch the video I posted - that was an Intake and Tuned 2011+ car - that was also on a DR.

Our 2011 GT went 13.0@110 bone stock, in November 2010. It is a base auto.

X2, I forgot about those.

Meh - they are a little sloppy.

I tried using them at the track, and went [email protected]ed to 12.6@112 just using "D".

Hmm figures. Maybe it will be a little better after a tune...probably not though. Ford needs a DCT trans option!!!

I'd sell my left nut for that!

Dubstep would probably love to have it.

Dubstep would probably love to have it.

My left nut or the trans?

I'm not sure he could handle having one of my nuts. They're quite impresive!

 

[BadPiggy]

LMAO!

The supercharger is on! It shouldn't be long before the car is alive again.

^ Winning!

After some research, I figured it was worth the $90 to save 13lbs with this Deka ETX18 Battery.

^^ Looking good!

$90 for 13lb, that's good math right there! Motorcycle stuff is about $1000/lb!

Did you by any chance note if the intake ports were different than the 11-14's? I read they were, but there sure were manifolds for blowers ready fast!

 

[claudermilk]

Nice. Damn, but the Mustang aftermarket moves fast! So less than a week that there are cars in customer's hands, and we have a blower on one.

There is already one that is Twin Turboed by Hellion though.

I'm looking forward to the aftermarket on these cars. Appearance and performance alike.

 

[BMR Tech]

It is coming along nicely. Just buttoning up some odds and ends. Installed the JLT Seperator, and made the JLT Intake work with a custom coupler.

I can't thank some of these guys enough. Justin and crew @VMP, JC @ ATI, Jared @ Magnaflow, Jay/Lisa @ JLT, The Team @ Lethal Perf...and of course my co-workers at BMR - they have all been a great help in getting this thing together.



Much more to come!

 

[DRock]

Glad to see that Jared at magnaFlow is taking good care of you! Stand up guy right there

 

[moostang09]

Wow, not wasting any time. Congrats on the progress and I look forward to seeing a "finished" product soon. We all know it's never finished. Lol

When are you running it down the strip?
