Part 1:

Round 1 for this mustang was just a roll cage and aluminum dash

Part 2:

Cages save lives!

Part 3:

Next visit was a Fuel Safe fuel cell, and firewall, along with a new tank for the Rousch supercharger intercooler. The fuel cell has dual internal pumps housed inside a surge tank so this thing can run very low and still not starve the pump.

Part 4:

An upgrade in traction was next with the install of the Cortex cambered rear axle (1.5 degrees rear camber), along with their watts link and lower control arms.

Part 5:

After burning through Brembos, then Wilwoods, it was settled on to run the AP/Essex racing brakes front and rear and there is no looking back. Hands down, the best brake setup available!

Part 6:

Side exit exhaust had to be built to keep it above the aero that was coming next…

Part 5: Bullet 5

This is how the Aero Kit comes from NextRev..some assembly required.

Part 5: Bullet 5

NextRev comes out and 3d scans the car, then uses CFD technology to design and test the aero components.

Part 7:

We use the 18′ chassis jig table for aero mounting. It has to be 100% parallel to the ground with the car at rake.

Part 8:

After burning through Brembos, then Wilwoods, it was settled on to run the AP/Essex racing brakes front and rear and there is no looking back. Hands down, the best brake setup available!

Part 9:

The wing and diffuser transfer energy into the chassis through the same gusseted rear bar.

Part 10:

The flat bottom is key to making all the other aero work!

Part 11:

All done and mounted!

Part 12:

Most recently, the mustang got a complete rewire. We pulled shaved 32.8 lbs by getting rid of the factory rat’s nest and running only the essentials. To control everything, it got treated to a new Cartek PDM in place of all the old switches and relay/fuse boxes
