Project Build
This project started out like any other. I bought the car to save on gas while I drove it as a daily back and forth to work. Once I realized it was faster than the 2010 Mustang GT I traded in on it, I decided I wanted to explore the possibilities of what this platform could do. I had it tuned in the first week and it was on E30 at 1,500 miles. I added a Full Race Intercooler and a Wastegate Actuator shortly there after and kept it in this configuration until a rod let go at 115,000 miles. It made 377 horsepower and 455 pound-feet of torque. Now on to the build.
The goal is to have a 600+ horsepower car that will run in the 10s at the dragstrip and still be drivable. Engineered Motorsport Solutions is putting the car together in Rogersville, TN. You can see the EMS (Engineered Motorsport Solutions) Youtube channel here: EMS YouTube
