This Restomod 1965 Has Twin Turbos AND a Supercharger

Vicious

This fire-breathing beast is all about absolutely unforgiving power and performance. And what better visual to represent that insane power than the original American muscle car. But while this crazy project did begin with a beat up 1965 Mustang, almost every element of the Vicious Mustang has been modified or hand-fabricated.

Custom Everything

The modifications all around the V-Stang make it truly unique. To an untrained eye, this might look like a regular Mustang with some bodywork. But taking a closer look will reveal that almost every body panel has been custom fabricated specifically for this build. Which gives this powerhouse an aesthetic that can be described as retro-modern.

Under the Hood

The bodywork might give you a hint as to what sort of power hides underneath the hood of this beast. But popping the lid will unveil the real crazy part of this story! The Vicious Mustang is powered by a reworked Ford 5.2-liter V8 motor, which is aided by a pair of turbochargers, AND a Magnuson supercharger on top!

Pure Performance

That monstrous combo is capable of putting down over 1,000 horsepower. But it can go up to 1,200 horses with a simple tune! And all that power is transferred to the unlucky tires through an EMCO CG46 sequential 6-speed transmission. And a racecar transmission is only appropriate given the nature of this build!

Fiery Red

Take a look inside the V-Stang, and you will see red. Literally! Every interior surface of this restomod Mustang is covered in red. And this thing is meant to provide as raw of a driving experience as there is out there. Creature comforts are practically nonexistent, and very little sound deadening or head insulation is used.

$1 Million

With a great suspension and brake setup to match the power, we can only imagine the pure joy and adrenaline involved in driving this bad boy. This build has been a massive undertaking. With the thousands of man-hours and an unthinkable amount of money gone into it, the Vicious Mustang is a $1 million project. Why would you buy an exotic hypercar when you can experience the insanity of the V-Stang?
