Here is a pic of JBA's 05 Mustang that's going to SEMA next week. The car will have JBA's headers and complete exhaust system, a Vortech after-cooled supercharger and custom wheels tires, brakes, and more. I'll have pics from the show next week.

The hood makes it look weird. It looks like there is something missing at the windshield. I think on other cowl induction looking hoods there was a lip on the raised portion of the hood at the cowl and it kind of angled back up and toward the windshield.

dude, it's JBA, calm down they aren't releasing the hood, the supercharger or anything like that, all that matters is the headers back to the exhaust tip.

NewPony05 - you are right! "all that matters is the headers back to the exhaust tip."

Sweet! Personally I like the car... but the flames need to be cut back and the rims might want to be less 'bling.'

If you got rid of the JBA grafix I would paint my car like that I think the paint focks. But to each his own. Back to topic they should make a good exhaust their headers for the -2004 f-150s made like 40hp or some redicouluds number. Good quality stuff.

Here are some pics of the JBA 2005 Mustang at the SEMA show last week. You can see that it's a little different from the rendering. It showcased JBA's new long tube headers, h-pipe and exhaust system. It was also outfitted with Vortech's new supercharger system, 20 x 8.5 and 20 x 10 SAF forged wheels and Toyo Proxes, and Vogtland springs. More pics to come from the show..

I am just sick and tired of the Mustang being turned into a "rice-o-roni" mobile. It is american muscle and should stay that way. Other than the paint job this is one of the few modified versions that looks half decent.

Here is a better shot. I agree, some of the other Mustangs at SEMA didn't do the car justice.

Man, some of you guys need to chill. It's rolling advertisement, and it looks cool. Lose the JBA and other logos, and keep the tribal flame job, I'd drive it anyday.

I wonder if the exhaust system would work better if the long tubes were 1.50" instead of 1.625".

Based on the engine size, compression, power and expected upgrades like superchargers and nitrous oxide the 1.625" is the best size. If anything - the new 3v engine may be capable of running 1.75". Only testing will show for sure.
