  • 2014 Mustang GT – Warrior Edition

    2014 Mustang GT – Warrior Edition

    #20 out of a total of 50 made, CT’s Warrior edition 2014 Ford Mustang GT is one rare beast. Developed by Ford Racing in partnership with Military AutoSource, only 50 of these units were produced and sold exclusively to members currently serving in the Armed Forces in Afghanistan. While serving a tour in Afghanistan at that time, Military AutoSource reached out and offered the car up, an opportunity he couldn’t turn down. CT procured his Warrior in 2014 and immediately started planning additional modifications, even before he was back stateside.
     
    Originally delivered to Diehl Ford in Bellingham, WA, the car didn’t stay stock for long. As soon as the car was delivered, CT got together with Diehl Ford to turn it up a notch with a Roush R2300 Supercharger Kit, Roush body kit, and supporting modifications.
    At the same time, H&R Special Springs, LP. got word of the car, and offered to rework the entire underside, installing H&R Street Performance Coil Over suspension, front and rear Sport Sway Bars, and H&R TRAK+® Wheel Spacers. Once the package was complete, CT took official delivery of the car and has had it since.
     
    While the car was fun for a few years, CT looked to us for a new tune, one that would allow him to thoroughly enhance the driving experience and enjoy the car without the fear of any issues down the road, all the while releasing some extra ponies!
    With the S197 in the shop, John strapped her down to the rollers for Vlad to perform a custom calibration via HP Tuners . With 93 octane in the tank, Vlad increased the Gen-I Coyote to 666.39whp & 570.63lbft! Solid numbers that sure made CT grinning from ear to ear!
