The folks over at GeigerCars.de’s have successfully managed have successfully managed to fine tune the mammoth 5.2 litre V8 engine of the Mustang GT 520, and the result is a staggering maximum power output of 520 hp / 382.7 kW, up from stock 300 hp / 220 kW. With 563 Nm of torque (Woow!) available at 4,730 rpm, power is all yours! It can do a 0 – 100 km/h in 4.2 seconds and reach a top speed of 178 mph which is around 287Km/h. Gee! that's shatteringly heroically fast. Along with that it's got high-performance brake system as well featuring vented and cross-drilled 355 x 32-mm brake discs and four-piston aluminum calipers on the front axle.

The Mustang GT 520 has got the heart and soul of the Mustang GT. In a true Mustang way, it gets a multimedia sound system from JBL that was custom-tailored acoustically and visually to the interior of the Ford Mustang coupe and also features an integrated real 5.1 surround system. I for the one wonder the wisdom behind this though as I would rather prefer the 5.2 litre V8 roar than music coming from all those Hi-fi systems.

Mustang-Saleen-S7-Twin-Turbo-Design-Sport-Car

Saleen knows all about power. As in S281 Mustangs, N2O Focuses and the S7, America’s first (and still the only) mid-engine exotic supercar. When it went on sale in 2002, the S7 was the only street-legal car in the U.S. with more than 500 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque. The media and S7 owners have raved about the car since it first smoked the rear tires in anger. And it has been recognized by numerous automotive magazines as the fastest production car in the world. But during the past three years the automobile marketplace has witnessed an explosion of performance with models from manufacturers including Ferrari, Lamborghini, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and Chevrolet touting power numbers above the once magic 500 level.
Designed by Saleen engineers, the S7's engine and drivetrain incorporate the latest in modern racing technology. The new all-aluminum V8 engine casting was engineered and tooled by Saleen to displace seven liters. Redline is 6500 rpm. Space age materials and engineering are used throughout, including stainless steel valves, titanium retainers, beryllium exhaust valve seats, an aluminum throttle body, Saleen designed aluminum CNC-machined cylinder heads and stainless steel exhaust system. An exclusive Saleen-designed Front Engine Accessory Drive (FEAD) system results in an extremely compact engine, allowing for better packaging and overall weight distribution. The V8 incorporates a unique Saleen-designed side-mounted water pump, a belt-driven camshaft drive and a Saleen-engineered dry sump oil delivery system. The engine's mid-chassis placement optimizes weight distribution and center of gravity, making room for an unusually tall engine that allows for a very efficient induction system. Air enters a roof intake, passes through a 90-mm mass air meter and feeds into a carbon fiber plenum. From the plenum the air is routed to the twin ball bearing turbos, is pressurized to 5.5 psi max and then passes through an oval-bore throttle body into an aluminum intake manifold with eight individual runners.
