Review : Ford Mustang Shelby GT500

This special Mustang is equipped with a 5.8-liter V8 engine that develops an impressive output of 650 hp with a peak torque of 813 Nm and a top speed of over 320 km / h. To understand what this really means, just think that the previous version a power of 550 hp with 700 Nm and reached a maximum of 300 km / h.

These numbers are achieved by adopting a TVS 2300 supercharger, the characteristic variations of Shelby. Almost every part of the engine has been optimized compressor, engine, drive shaft made of carbon fiber, reinforced clutch and transmission as well as the camshaft. E 'was also revised six-speed manual transmission with a new twin-disc clutch

For the more demanding then we will be able to opt for 2 packages: "Performance Package" and the "Track Package" that will offer new adaptive Bilstein suspension, Brembo brakes with six-piston calipers and Torsen limited slip differential. Inside the leather seats are Recaro sports design.
It also seems that the American company is already working on a variant of the Mustang even more powerful, able to develop about 800 hp, but is designed exclusively for the racetrack
