Transforming my Mustang into a Supercar (Road to 700 - Stage 1)

- Join me on a journey to transform my 2007 Ford Mustang GT into a Supercar. The s197 three-valve is known to be an underachiever out of the factory. I am on a mission to change that. Future upgrades include headers, heads, cams (eventually), boost, and significant suspension improvements.

I am just starting on my 2006 Mustang GT....extreme amature...I ordered the same air intake you have...but need to get a tuner but have no idea how to use one. They said that the intake can run with or without tune with the attacment provided, but i read it dont perform half as good as tuned...any advice?
@@SinnersWay Just get a canned Bama tune for the CAI. After that, save up for a supercharger, like a procharger. You can buy a complete kit and bypass most of the headache and expenses.
If you want to help your brakes even more change the brake lines to braided
Hands down my favorite body style Mustang and my Fox bodies is the other
I love you're car but honestly you get too 700hp with ease with a 07 09 GT 500.Same body style lol way stronger motor and same with the transmission.I know a GT 500 even the 07 09 is a lot more expensive than a GT.I have a 07 Shelby GT and I love the car but too try too get it on the level of my GT500 or my 2 super snakes would take tons of money and it isn't worth it.But whatever floats your boat.The 07 09 right now are at the cheapest prices out there but trust me they will go up.So but now
Six years on, that this content is still absolutely solid, mate. Starting my own journey with an '07 GT, and your experience and perspective have already saved me a significant amount of headache and wasted cash. Cheers!
Just starting my own journey with my 06’ GT, would appreciate any advice on where to start after installing the cold air intake.
@@nickjames3569 Depends on your desired outcome. I don't do track days, quarter mile times, or street drags. I want my ride to look good, sound better, and be fun to drive. So, I've added Pypes high flow cats and the Ford Performance Hotrod cams, but that'll likely be the extent of my "performance" mods (until I can afford long-tube headers).
im about to buy a 07 mustang aswell, and i always come back to these videos
You're significantly easier to watch compared to any other Mustang youtuber I've seen to date, keep it up
Good Editing Too👏👏
Why though?
1:22 the subtle flex of pulling off your glasses to reveal.... ANOTHER PAIR OF GLASSES
6 eyes right there.
🤣
Planning on getting an s197 from 2005-2009 and I'm going to put a Roush Phase 2 supercharger, and a Roush cold air intake
How did your roush phase 2 supercharger install go? Worth it not worth it?
You got potential for a TH-cam channel, you really should upload more often.
Nice to see another 3V build! I'll be watching your progress.
I’m binge watching your channel lol good stuff
I thoroughly enjoyed the creativity, deversity, and clarity in this video. You've got a beautiful S197 GT; you're more than merely inspiring some of your subscribers. Best of luck to your future upgrading agendas; I'll be along for the ride, undoubtedly. Keep up the excellent work.
I really like how you added in the dyno sheet overlay as it was getting dyno'd! I like how you're doing this build, gonna keep up with it
S197 07GT over here.....I'm sold....def upbringing and going to watch this build!!!
Great content and personality! Subscribed and going to watch this road to 700!
Absolutely loved this video. Super high quality content. Hoping you make more of these videos in the future!
Love your videos! Looking forward to more of them. The S197 GT is the best looking Mustang ever made in my opinion.
Your spreadsheet seems very well put together and reasonable, and the cost of each stage seem accessible, I'd love to do this myself one day.
I like your car. Nothing wrong with that engine at all. I would love to have one. My dad had a Porsche928s that only had 280 hp. It was built in 88 and that thing was an amazing cruiser.
Great Video, really enjoyed the structure and the idea of various stages in the way you have it documented. Hope the other videos of the various stages are done as well.
Thanks Richard, that's the plan.
subbed, looking forward to seeing the process of this build
great driving. Getting mine tomorrow
Much love to the 3V, I love mine. Really excited to come across this build, will be following in depth.
Thanks Andrew ✌
I really like your vids! I wont be going the 700 hp way, but your initial bolt on mods are good. Keep us informed. On run two, u would have gone sub 6 but for the wheel hop. My 2008 GT was doing that until i got BMR rear upper and lower control arms amd frame mount. Hooked up better.
Love you man, you deserve more subs
Dude you are pretty cool. I just purchase my first Mustang last week (2007 GT, 4.6). Looking forward to watching your transformation.
Luv the build so far
Bro I'm watching this video again...quality stuff man...the scenery is real nice out there...the ending drive and music...😎👌
Excellent quality videos you have earned yourself a new subscriber
nice ..about to start my build also ..so I will stay tuned ..
Nice video and great content. Can't wait to see more.
Drawing inspiration from this. I'm going to be building mine in stages as well, but haven't got much of an idea in presenting them. Cheers for that :)
Already you’re on my top 3 list for car TH-camrs
If you want a real throw you back in your seat feeling, 4.10 are an option. I put them in my 2006 GT and it takes off. You might lose some top end speed though, but it's not very much, and the 0-60 pick up is worth it in my opinion. Again though if you prefer top end speed over quicker acceleration, then you could go 3.73 or stay with the stock gears. All in what you want out of your car. Sick ride thought. I like the set up. I put long tube headers and an X pipe, with Borla Stingers and it sounds amazing.
Just bought my first car, 05 mustang 4.0L so excited to pick it up on Wednesday. Gonna put a supercharger on it, and a whole bunch of other mods.
Im not gonna lie but dam that mustang is clean af
I am just now watching the first episode and I love it. I am debating on doing this when I get my mustang. I really appreciate how much time and energy you put in this and I will watch the whole series
Thanks Jonathon ✌️
I had no idea that was your first video, you put it together very and the commentary was spot on. It's nice to see a mustang video by a guy that isn't a D-bag
Just seeing this now . dude you did a good job with the mustang. Don't say negative things about your personal car and project. It is a muscle car now
Not a muscle car
Nice vid man, wating to see the stage 2 vid
Great video. Keep up the nice work. I'll keep following the page👍🏻
Mac Mufflers and Off Road Pro Chamber. . Sounds great on my 3v .... thanks for the video
Nice vid clean ride..0-60 and 20-80 was cool will be looking for more... 09 roushgt stage 3👍😎
Great video! That NV state route 341 looks like a fantastic driving road, especially in a car like yours!
For someone who really wants to get into cars and an 05-09 mustang gt was a childhood dream car, this video series has me absolutely hyped
I am glad i found this channel !
Nicely done! I hope to see more soon. I have an '06 stock GT.
Cool Vid. will watch the rest. 05 3V here!
Thanks - they get a lil better each time I hope.
I have a 07 mustang gt as well! I’m watching you to gain inspiration to build mine!
These are some of the best looking mustangs. If this body style has the new interior quality it would be perfect
I love seeing 05-09 s197 builds man! I’m currently so myself I have a 08 GT Vista Blue with LT’s,O/R h pipe,c&l intake,SR TB,flowmaster American thunders,BMR LCA,both adjustable panhard bars,h&r coilovers.Put down 303hp,308tq with temperature correction (Florida).cant wait to see the rest of this build brotha!!
Nice. Any clips of it?
Four Eyes yeah I do have a clip sadly it’s only on my phone from the dyno
man ... awesome roads there
Great Editing Man🙌👏👏
haha the sunglasses, yup need glasses too.
Ah the O.E. brakes, yup almost nothing...
Got a Focus St loaner while mine was in the shop and the brakes were night and day...
Was having fun with the Focus it felt like a tron cycle...
Got back into the Mustang and definitely noticed the lack of brakes...
Great looking car even now. Ford always had pretty good sounding V-8 exhausts imo. The SVT Cobra is still one of my favorites.
Just saw both of your videos and I just want to let you know that your video quality(video edits, camera angles, video information, etc) is great! As your first video, this looks like something a TH-camr who'd have years of experience with 500k subscribers would create. It is amazing what you created here! I know this channel will grow within a matter of months.
As for your modifications; those were perfect for Stage 1.
First mods should always be what you showed us in this video. I saw your google sheet and I must say, you are heading the correct direction. I would suggest Ford Performance 4.10 Gears as well, but perhaps you have a reason behind not upgrading them? I am just curious, maybe a gear upgrade will not work with your future mods or something. Let me know, I will happy to hear from you back, bro.
Greetings from South Texas!
Really really appreciate your comment. You're exactly right about the gears, once I get the turbo installed, I'd be rowing thru the gears so quickly w/ 4.10s that the car wouldn't be realizing the full benefits of forced induction. I remember seeing a comment by nola504boy1 who experienced this issue on his Mustang. If I were looking to build an N/A drag car, I would defs go with 4.10s. The overall goal is to make this stang really well rounded... eventually.
Again, thank you for the feedback.
@ 19:32 the silhouette of the car on the wall was a sick shot 🔥👌🏾
Can't wait to do this
Like another commenter said, this quality video is up to par if not better than most you tubers. Great job. I'm from Miami fl and I'm exremely jealous of those winding roads and scenery. Love my old 3v and look forward to seeing this series. I read the mod sheet and I'll suggest aftermarket camshafts if you want to take advantage of your other planned mods. Especially the aftermarket heads and fr intake manifold! If you stay n/a 4.10s if you do end up fi your stock 3.55s should be perfect.
Thanks man! These comments go a long way for me, sure appreciate them. At least in Miami you are at sea level, but yes we have some challenging roads up here in the Sierras.
Still looking for a camshaft that provides just slightly more lift and duration, because I've read that at my altitude large cams can destroy performance below 2k rpm and cause the car to often die when idle. Also 100% definitely going with boost.
I'm in the middle of editing my next video, dropping next week. Thank you for subscribing.
I know how ya feel Tony, IM in Jacksonville and it's flat here. I miss Tennessee Roads
Little biggest city pride.. beautiful machine
Nice ride I'm happy for you.
Oh, and I and happy new year.
awesome vid my man like the car, one day you will see me in the 700 club ...
Cant wait to start my build. Good looking car man. 06 GT Windveil blue.. lol fastest color they make
Nice man i am working carefully on my 06 stang gt since 3 yrs.. choosing parts and building the engine after studying and reading about stroker engines.. my project will be custom twin turbo it should put arround +800 wrhp..
I'm actually getting stage 1 done right now and will like to see your updates as I go through the stage plans I like the way you set it up
Watching this man Videos becsue next year as a 17 yr it’s game on for me 🖤 gun metal grey coming
Underrated channel
Stage 2 stage 2 im ready to see the build
3 valve is life, my car is fbo with around 350whp but going b326 brenspeed stroker iron block with a procharger f1a
excellent video! good job!
Thanks Brian ✌️
Absolute badass.
Subscribed!
My Stage 1
Staggered wheels: 18x9 255 18x10.5 285
BBK cold air intake
Bama tune
Muffler and Cat delete
Ford racing 4.10 gears
And Hurst short throw shifter
Did you delete all cats or just rear ?? My car only has the front cats and is straight piped back no mufflers
Awesome video thanks your video s help me with my 05 GT mod decision I agree with you there lacking alot of power when they made the 07 5.0 coyote after
I drive a Coyote. I like this a LOT. The engines change over time but who is to say that one isn't good? They're all awesome and were designed with these intentions in mind. I LOVE a built mustang! This guy is doing it right and thats why we've all got this reputation. NICE CAR MAN! Okay now I want one. You really can't have too many of these. I think you're too down on it dude.
yeah fo sure getting one of these you made me want one just super clean
that was a smooth as transition from sunglasses to regulars.
Great job on the information and the editing in the video. Very professional! You earned a subscriber and I’ll be happy to chime in any info if you need some. 👍
👍🏼 beautiful car
Good luck on your build... YepI i watched the video from start to finish. I like your music choice at the end.
That A-Spec Acura TL at 24:10 though. Lol.
Super sick build man. I just found you and this was the first video I've watched. Can't wait to get caught up. Great production value and the 3v is definitely one of the best sounding V8's ever!
thanks man 🙏
Nice to see someone else staggered wheels at 18 and 19. This is exactly the setup I'm planning to do.
Is it 19x10 on the rear?
I'm torn between 10 and 11. Probably go with 10, just cause it keeps the weight of the wheel lower.
High quality fuckin content, love the videos man I have an 05 gt
Looked at your build sheet. Head porting is not necessary with forced induction. I would however invest in a decent set of turbo cams. Also with the on3 turbo kit it requires you to remove the front sway bar which will drastically alter your handling characteristics. Not 100% sure if the sway bar relocation kit helps.
I didn't know the sway bar had to be relocated / removed, will have to look into that. As for the heads, combustion engines are basically big air pumps, the more air that goes in and out, the more power. But you're right they're not necessary to exceed 700whp with FI. I am aiming to break 400whp before boosting, and to do that I'll need less restrictive heads. I'll address cams in the next video. Thanks for the comment.
Szakara GT will let you know from experience it takes a lot of $$$ to break the 400hp n/a. Do your best to prep for boost. Fuel system, if you decide to go Centri blower (Vortech, Paxton, or Procharger) do headers and exhaust. If you decide to keep with the turbo route invest in a good set of turbo cams. You won't gain much n/a but it will be really efficient under boost. Any questions just hit me up...
Like the videos keep it up
Lmao the double glasses thing got me 😂
Quality video, I'm interested to see what you can get out of that 3v since most do an engine swap for that kind of power. I do have a couple of suggestions however. In the spreadsheet you mention forged internals in stage V. If you go that route, it would be wise to get a forged 5.0 stroker kit, unless of course you want to keep it at that displacement so you can say you have a 700hp 4.6. Also if you're putting that much power in the car, might want to upgrade the breaks sooner rather than later. It's one of the things often overlooked when building a fast car. Looking forward to see what you do with it.
Something about "five-oh" really rolls off the tongue. I think I am going to go with this: www.modularmotorsportsracing.com/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=4_7_54&products_id=354
I'd love to upgrade the brakes, but for a really bamf set, they are as much as boost. But I'll definitely go overkill on them at some point. I have my eye on these Brembos: www.carid.com/2007-ford-mustang-brakes/brembo-gt-series-2-piece-curved-vane-type-iii-brake-kit-45042907.html?parentsubmodel[]=SUBMODEL|GT
Good choice. 5 liters will give you a bit more to play with to achieve 700 hp. There's no replacement for displacement. You may also want to consider the Ford Performance hot rod cams. I've seen other 3v builds with these and the sound is incredible. About as close to an old school v8 sound as you can get with a modern engine. It will really compliment your axle back exhaust and they're good for +30hp on a stock engine. I would wait until you upgrade the heads before fooling with cams though. No sense in pulling the engine apart any more than you have to. There are also much cheaper upgrades you should do first that will yield more gains.
Here's a link to the cams: www.americanmuscle.com/ford-hotrodcam-0509.html?Engine%20-%20Camshafts%7CFord%20Performance&AMM%202005-2014%20No%20Years&T5_Var3=blue&T5_Var4=24073&intl=0&gclid=CPnizPmemdkCFbabswodqYAPmQ&gclsrc=ds
Nice vid
the 05-09 3v are the best sounding muscle v8 ever made.
Loved the Brrrr... mimic. jajaja
Oh man, I know I’m late but let me tell you how good this series is! The end drive is simply soothing, could you tell me the name of the song?
Good luck
If you wanna make 700+ whp, look into a forged crankshaft and H-Beam connecting rods. Trust me, it’ll save you a ton of money down the road.
Already got 'em picked out: www.modularheadshop.com/i-24493423-excessive-motorsports-1000-hp-4-6l-3v-rotating-assembly-eagle-forged-crankshaft-manley-4340-h-beam-rods-and-manley-3v-specific-pistons.html
Going have to build bottom end
Great and beautiful.. ! and very informative your videos to me, cause i'm from Finland :) , and have my first Mustang 05 3V GT ..Thanx.. :)
Thank you Jorma ✌
That's cool
17:00 so where is that nice place, buddy? looks amazing yoa! awesome GT btw.
Geiger grade (Nevada State Route 341) towards Virginia City. It's a wonderful road; it should be in racing games.
soo just to say if i got a v6 camaro pushing 300 horsepower does the same thing with different stages apply?
I know you tried a ford performance intake but can you run the plates underneath that intake ? Like a stock one
Must be nice having all that money for all those mods! GIVE ME MONEY TO MOD MY SHIT! hahaha sick ride bro! I love the quality of the video! and the content is pretty dope keep it up!
nice
Bro really felln video bro good wprk frst vid i seen of urs
Thanks meng.
How the hell do you only have 124 subs?!?!?
Wow he gained 10k in one year
