Motorcycle vs. Car Drift Battle 2 : Details on the Mustang Cobra!

The mustang has the following mods to help it be the beast it was for the video. All work including paint, and custom welding was done by Car Crafters in Albuquerque, NM by Sean, Luigi and Brian!

The car is now for sale!!!

Quick over view of the car:

Dynoed at 490 hp and 490 ft lbs of torque

Fully customized and modified suspension

4 point roll cage with Sparco seats and 5 point belts

Details:

    

Engine:

a. Upgraded fuel injectors

b. Terminator throttle body

c. Custom x-pipe exhaust - no cats or mufflers, stops just past rear axle making it legal for any drift organization.

d. Custom air intake

e. Port and Polished supercharger

f. Billet pulley system for 12 plus lbs of boost

g. AC compressor eliminator

h. Aeromotive fuel pump with return system for constant high pressure

i. MSD 2-step rev-limiter, cuts the ignition before the fuel, unlike the stock ECU and is much better on the engine.

Cooling:

a. Eliminated the AC condenser for better cooling

b. Big aftermarket power steering cooler 

c. Steeda heat exchanger

d. Big aluminum radiator

e. Dual electric fans for over 2,000 cfm of air flow

Suspension:

a. Full Maximum Motorsports track package, minus cross member, to remain legal for all drifting organizations. This includes their purpose built dampeners, coil-over adders with correct spring rates, upper camber / caster plates, strut brace, all bushings replaced (including all of the rear IRS bushings), tie rod ends with bump steer adjustment. 

b. Custom blocks were made to relocate the front sway bar to allow for more steering angle

c. The front lower control arms were all custom fabbed out of DOM tubing. We had to make two different sets. The first set was very close to the stock arms just with more room but we found that we needed more camber and caster so a second set was made an inch and a half longer and we relocated the lower ball joint. Both sets will be included.

d. Front knuckles were cut and reinforced to allow for more angle and also worked to make sure the bump steer was perfect.

e. The final alignment was done and a lot of work has been done to make it handle great for drifting. On top of the alignment, the car is scaled and set-up for correct ride height, front to rear balance and cross weight.

Interior:

a. All the stock interior has been removed. This includes the heater box, radio, ac, stereo, carpet, headliner, center console, air bags, the stock steering column, etc.

b. The stock steering column was replaced with a solid shaft and a quick release racing steering wheel.

c. The ignition, starter, police lights, wipers, fuel pump, and fans are all on a custom carbon dash panel where the old radio was.

d. The boost gauge, water temp gauge, oil pressure gauge are all mounted on a custom carbon panel.

e. The headlights still operate from the stock switch.

f. The RPM, Speed, and other stock gauges work.

g. Sparco Racing Seats

h. 5-point racing harness for the driver and a 4 point harness for the passenger

i. Battery relocated to behind the passenger seat to offset the weight of the driver

j. 4 point roll cage is in the car currently, this will be legal for most pro-am drifting.
