A leader in Ford Mustang performance over the past couple years has to be Evolution Performance with their mind boggling performance numbers from the GT500 among other cars.  This time is no different as they got their hands on one of the first 2011 Mustang GT's and took it straight to the track with one goal in mind.  That goal was to get the new 5.0 Mustang into the 11's and be the first to do it.  They started by making a few runs on the stock tires which resulted in mid 12-second quarter mile runs.  Next EP stepped it up with a set of Bogart racing wheels and Mickey Thompson ET Street tires giving them the results they were looking for, an 11-second run with no modifications to the motor.  Their best pass was an 11.82 @ 118 MPH.  Check out the video below for a baseline dyno run and all the quarter-mile passes.

    Bad stuff?

  2. Got to love affordable performance like this...if 30K is considered reasonable amongst common folk, this keeps up with, if not beats the costlier competition. Great article.
