  1. 2026 Mustang Build and Price Site Is Up!

    Yep, but much like things like college tuition, Mustang prices have far outpaced inflation. Inflation brings it from $34K to about $43K... there's $30K more unaccounted for.
  2. 2026 Mustang Build and Price Site Is Up!

    I don’t mean to be that guy, but I bought my 2018 GT PP1 brand new for $34K.
  3. 2026 Mustang Build and Price Site Is Up!

    I noticed the 5-spoke carbon fiber wheels are no longer an option for the DH. Must not have gotten many orders for those. Although for $9K you'd think they'd be able to come up with a better design. That Adriatic Blue is pretty attractive and I always did like Orange Fury, but Magenta's...
  4. First production ESS S650 kit has arrived!

    you would not believe how many people at car shows ask if I installed the turbocharger myself 😂 but seriously guys, Brevin is great to work with, hope the kit works out on your cars!
  5. 2025 Mustang GT Gear Install

    Not that easy my friend. As mentioned in my earlier post - it's a lot of labor. Removed the diff myself for my gear guy and it was an 8 hour remove-and-install job, plus the gear labor. I called a number of shops but the two dealers I called didn't want to touch it. And also as mentioned...
  6. 2025 Mustang GT Gear Install

    Lol. Wonder how many folks on this thread have any idea what that means except us old guys 😂
  7. Whipple cost

    As I said, my understanding is that ESS doesn't offer an S650 kit yet but it might be worth checking into by one of you guys to see if they have one in the works. It's a great combination of power and drivability for about half the cost of a positive displacement blower.
  8. 2025 Mustang GT Gear Install

    I went from 3.73's to 4.09's in my 2018 GT, and feel like 4.09's are are the right answer for the MT-82 gearing. Going to 4.09's from 3.55's or 3.15's will really wake your cars up. That said, it's expensive and tuning could be an issue. Lots of labor time and some dealers don't want to mess...
  9. Whipple cost

    I only offer this as a data point, understanding that this is not an option for S650's YET, buy my ESS centri kit including Wengerd tune was $7,800 and easy enough to install myself. Hard to imagine that with their success with the S550's that a 650 kit wasn't in the works.
  10. Cool Daily Random S650 Mustang Pics -- Post Yours! 📸

    A few fresh ones on their way to their new homes!
  11. Procharger

    Have any S650 owners reached out to ESS? Wonder if they’ve looked into fitting the G3 into the 2024+ yet.
  12. How Happy are you Dark Horse owners with your purchase?

    7G will probably start picking up. There is a lot less traffic these days in the what did you do to your Mach 1 today thread! We have become irrelevant 😂
  13. How Happy are you Dark Horse owners with your purchase?

    We miss you over on 6G! 😂 you’re gonna miss all the posts on my ESS install! 😂
  14. Unreal depreciation

    FWIW my wife’s car got rear ended a couple yrs ago and I took it to one of the collision shops approved by the insurance company. The shop kept it a month and I wasn’t happy with the results so I complained to the insurance company. They said take it where I want and have them report any...
  15. Unreal depreciation

    I have a Mach 1, not a GT.
