Hello. My name is Adam. I currently have a 2010 GT500 with a fair amount of mods and making 690whp on 93 octane. So far, the car has been bomb-proof. No problems. I've looked at MANY YouTube vids and read articles about the 2020 GT500. BUT, I'd like to get some feedback from owners here...

Hello. Thanks for the valid questions/comments. I plan on keeping the 2010 GT500 and like the current config, performance, etc.. I didn't really have a goal with it other than to experience a pretty bada$$ street car, forced induction, loads of torque, brutal acceleration, etc.. On the...

Hello, After buying a new 14 Mustang GT, I got into a clean, low miles 2010 GT500. I added VMP Gen 2, intake, throttle body, injectors, long-tube headers, overdrive crank pulley, heat exchanger, KB BAP, work/tunes by Horsepower Solutions in Newport News VA, … 690whp and about same torque...

Just a quick update. Drove the car a few times. Wow!! The power and speed? Crazy!! I know there are faster, better handling cars. But I can't imagine what they must be like to drive. These GT500's with a relatively small amount of money spent on modifications are monster street cars!!

Hello, I don't post often, but I thought someone may be able to use some info on my latest performance mods. First, many many thanks to Josh at Horsepower Solutions in Newport News VA. He's done most of my mod installs and all dyno tuning. Great guy, great work and great customer service. My...

Hello, I'm trying to learn about engines and performance levels. I think I'm just starting to get to a point where I need to be smarter about making "safe" horsepower and torque. What exactly causes an engine to fail ("blow up")? I try to read all I can here on the forums and I understand...

Hello, I have a 2010 GT500 and recently me and my best old buddy put a VMP TVS on the car along with idler, colder plugs, and 56# injectors. That made a BIG difference in my "seat of the pants" dyno. When I first got on it after the install it actually scared me. Just added ARH longtube...

Hello, I'm trying to get the TVS Gen2 ready to go on the car. For earlier cars (mine is 2010), VMP provides a an aluminum tube w/ 90 deg bend that goes in evap hole. We can't get it to go into the hole fully. It is stuck about a third of the way in. Any info on what we can try? Thanks for...

Hello, happy 4th of July! I've only posted a few times, but do a lot of reading here trying to learn as much as I can. I have 2010 GT500. I'm crazy about that car and it is a blast. I've driven it stock for a while with only a VMP tune. Like many, I wanted to take another step in HP/TQ. I...

Hello, I've been reading/learning on SVT Performance for quite a while. Joined when I got my 14 Mustang GT. I traded my 14 for a stock 10 GT500 a little while back. I really liked the 14 GT, but this GT500 is on another level (my opinion). I was trying to decide on keeping the stock...

Hello, my name is Adam and I'm a new owner of a base model 2010 GT500. It is black with matte black stripes and black interior w/ 16K miles. It is an awesome machine! I traded a 2014 Mustang GT 5.0 It was great, but this GT500 is on another level. I was going to supercharge and mod the 14...

I was driving to work in the early a.m. My commute is pretty much open road/highway. I'm at the light of a multi-lane road. I didn't even look at what was beside me in the other lanes. I know the timing of the lights, so I let my foot off the brake (A6) and start to idle forward. I guess an...

I have a 14 Mustang GT (Auto). After exchanging several emails, I drove up to visit Mike Rousch at Mid-Atlantic Performance in Richmond VA. He set me up with a tune. Big difference! Better throttle response, more torque, better shifts. Mike is great. He answered a bunch of my questions...
