Turbonetics Releases Mustang 4.6l V8 Turbo Kit

Use “V8” in a Ford Mustang GT sentence and everybody will think about the new 5.0 liter that delivers 412 hp. However, the previous 4.6 liter V8 model (this was used on the 2005-2009 ‘Stang) still receives attention from the aftermarket developers.

The latest goodies for the unit is something the 300 hp powerplant really needed: a turbo kit. Coming from Turbonetics, this raises the output to 550 hp, while being street-legal in 50 states. The turbocharger kit can be yours for $7,399.
