🔥 **2016 MUSTANG GT | FULL MANTA PERFORMANCE SYSTEM | BOSS 302 INTAKE | PRO AUTO DYNO CALIBRATION | 437RWHP!** 🔥
**ANOTHER COYOTE UNLEASHED AT PRO AUTO!**
Kim's 2016 Ford Mustang GT recently rolled into Pro Auto Service Centre for a serious naturally aspirated performance transformation, and the results speak for themselves!
The goal? Unlock the potential of Ford's legendary 5.0L Coyote V8 with a carefully selected combination of premium performance components, improved engine breathing and, most importantly, a custom dyno calibration to bring the entire package together.
No shortcuts, no half measures. Just proven performance upgrades, quality Australian made components and the expertise to extract the results!
**THE PERFORMANCE PACKAGE**
🔥 **FULL MANTA PERFORMANCE STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST SYSTEM**
We started by completely overhauling the factory exhaust system with a full Manta Performance stainless steel setup, including:
✅ Performance stainless steel headers
✅ High-flow catalytic converters
✅ Full true 3-inch stainless steel catback exhaust system
✅ Premium Australian manufacturing and build quality
✅ Backed by Manta's 10-year warranty
This isn't just about making the Mustang louder. It's about improving exhaust flow, reducing unnecessary restrictions and allowing the Coyote V8 to breathe the way it should!
The larger diameter exhaust system works alongside the performance headers and high flow catalytic converters to improve the engine's ability to expel exhaust gases, particularly as RPM and airflow demand increase.
And then there's the SOUND!
That unmistakable 5.0L Coyote V8 soundtrack, now with the deep, aggressive tone that only a quality full stainless steel exhaust system can deliver.
**Australian made. Built to last. Engineered to perform.**
🔥 **FORD PERFORMANCE BOSS 302 INTAKE MANIFOLD**
Next up was a Ford Performance Boss 302 intake manifold, one of the most recognised naturally aspirated upgrades for the earlier generation Coyote engines.
The Boss 302 manifold is designed to support improved airflow at higher engine speeds, shifting the engine's breathing characteristics towards stronger top end performance.
Where the factory manifold can become restrictive as RPM increases, the Boss 302's design allows the engine to continue breathing efficiently further into the rev range.
When combined with the right supporting modifications and calibration, it's a fantastic upgrade for enthusiasts chasing genuine naturally aspirated horsepower.
🔥 **ROUSH COLD AIR INTAKE**
Feeding the upgraded intake manifold is a Roush cold air intake system.
Designed to improve intake airflow and reduce restriction compared with the factory arrangement, the Roush system complements the Boss 302 manifold and full exhaust package.
Of course, simply bolting performance parts onto an engine doesn't guarantee they'll work together as intended.
That's where the calibration becomes critical!
🔥 **FORD PERFORMANCE BONNET STRUTS**
Performance isn't the only thing we take pride in!
We also fitted a set of genuine Ford Performance bonnet struts, replacing the traditional bonnet prop rod with a much cleaner, more convenient setup.
A simple but worthwhile finishing touch that improves engine bay access and adds a factory-quality appearance.
🔥 **THE MOST IMPORTANT PART — PRO AUTO CUSTOM DYNO CALIBRATION**
With all the hardware installed, it was time to bring everything together in our purpose built dyno cell.
At Pro Auto, we don't believe in simply fitting a collection of performance parts and hoping for the best.
The calibration is what allows the engine to take full advantage of the upgrades.
Our custom dyno calibration focuses on optimising the engine's operating parameters to suit the new intake and exhaust configuration, including air/fuel ratios, ignition timing, variable camshaft timing and overall engine response.
With the Boss 302 manifold changing the engine's airflow characteristics, correctly calibrating the variable camshaft timing and load calculations is particularly important to achieving a strong, usable power curve.
It's about more than chasing a peak horsepower figure. We want crisp throttle response, smooth power delivery and consistent performance throughout the rev range.
**AND THE RESULTS? ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING!**
🏁 **BEFORE: 343 RWHP**
🏁 **AFTER: 437 RWHP**
🚀 **A MASSIVE 94 RWHP INCREASE!**
🚀 **OVER 27% MORE POWER AT THE REAR WHEELS!**
That's an enormous improvement from a naturally aspirated 5.0L Coyote V8, without the need for a supercharger or turbocharger!
Just the right combination of premium hardware, quality installation and professional dyno calibration.
And remember, these are **REAL REAR WHEEL HORSEPOWER FIGURES**, measured on our dyno. Not inflated flywheel estimates or theoretical numbers!
**THIS IS WHAT A PROPERLY DEVELOPED NATURALLY ASPIRATED MUSTANG PACKAGE CAN ACHIEVE!**
Kim's Mustang now has the aggressive V8 soundtrack to match its appearance, improved engine breathing and a substantial increase in power.
Whether you're chasing a responsive street car, a high-revving naturally aspirated weapon or looking to build the foundations for something even bigger, Pro Auto has the experience, equipment and proven results to get the job done.
**PERTH'S LEADING MUSTANG PERFORMANCE DESTINATION**
From full Australian made exhaust systems and intake upgrades through to complete supercharger packages and custom dyno calibration, we offer complete drive in, drive out performance solutions for your Mustang.
