If you're looking to add serious power to your Mustang, one of the best in the business is Roush.
The Livonia, Michigan-based company late last year came out with a supercharger upgrade for the Mustang GT that lifts output to over 700 horses. Now Roush has unveiled a special edition Mustang dubbed the Jackhammer, which comes primed and ready for installing the supercharger. Roush adds all of the necessary components buried deep in the engine bay, as well as machining the front engine cover, and then hands the vehicle over to the customer's selected dealer to bolt the supercharger on top.
Just 200 examples of the Jackhammer Mustang will be built, each capable of delivering a staggering 710 horsepower and 610 pound-feet of torque when using Roush's 2650 supercharger upgrade. And to make the most of the power, Roush also fits the vehicle with adjustable coil over suspension, Continental ExtremeContact Sport tires, vents on the hood, and a front lip spoiler.

Buyers will have the choice of the Mustang's 6-speed manual or 10-speed automatic transmissions but only the car's coupe body style. They will also have numerous options including Recaro leather seats, an upgraded exhaust package, side body stripes and billet performance pedals.
The cost of all this is $14,765, though you'll still need to supply the donor 2018 Mustang GT and the actual supercharger. For peace of mind, a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty comes standard with the car.
Unfortunately there's no performance numbers but considering a stock Mustang GT with 460 hp can hit 60 mph in under 4.0 seconds, just imagine what this supercharged beast will do with 710 horses.
