This Mustang Can Do It All – 1,300 Horsepower and Streetable

By -

How often can you run 8s in a car with air conditioning?

We can talk at length about a few things here in this video. First, this 1,300-horsepower, twin-turbo Coyote can dominate the strip. Second, 1,300 horsepower from a Coyote is becoming a common thing. Third, you can eke out that kind of power while keeping a streetable S550.

Roll racing has its merits, but it also has its shortcomings, so we’ll let you judge this car’s performance at Orlando’s Street Car Takeover. What can be said is that it puts up a strong fight against everything that lines up against it. Coyote power is now becoming a norm at the drag strip, where it belongs.

One of the more impressive parts of this car is the fact it can still be used as a street car. It might have a roll cage in it, but it still has things like air conditioning, heated seats, and other comforts that you wouldn’t expect from a car that can pull 8s in the 1/4 mile.

We’re glad to see tuners take the Coyote motor seriously, offering turbo kits, and meth injection like this setup. It’s only a matter of time before the Coyote starts dominating everything in sight, while still being streetable.
