This is what a 50% increase in horsepower looks like

Racing my cammed and stroked 2007 Mustang GT (4.6 3v) against the stock version of itself to see how much of a difference naturally aspirated mods actually make. We also both race a Porsche 911 and the results are surprising!

They aren't sponsoring this video, but this stuff has been kind of magical. I will never not ceramic coat any of my vehicles from now on. See my previous video for detailed info / instructions:

Yes, NA builds are expensive. No, it’s (generally) not worth it, but something something eye of the beholder…

Rough breakdown of costs:
- *Cams* $1, 000 (127600 + phaser limiters)
- *Stroker Kit* $4, 000 (4.9L, but only ~9.6 compression ratio [for eventual boost])
- *Exhaust* $1, 500 (Kooks LT, catted x-pipe)
- *Intake* $2, 000 (CAI, TB, Manifold)
- *Trans* $6, 500 (includes clutch, driveshaft, and axle gears)

And special thank you to those who watch the video all the way through 🙏

I’m not even a mustang guy but i like these videos just bc of how educational and how well edited they are. Keep up the great work

[alemdomedo]

I definitely love this channel. Please, never stop to making content like that.

[vincentchauvel]

THANKS for not making a 25min video for a simple concept, straight to the point, no extra, very cool video

[mikey]

Dude has more quality content in a 6 minute and 25 second video than almost every other car-focused YT channel I've seen. I'm not even into Mustangs, but I love this kinda stuff. will be watching more of your videos for sure!

[adamspivey]

That has got the be the cleanest and best sounding S197 that I've ever seen. Very crispy!

[eugew]

Can we take a second to appreciate Zach's insanely clean and beautiful stock S197? Wow is that a nice looking car.

[luckyth]

I love how non clickbait, fact based and how competition was handled in such a friendly manner. dont see much of that on YT these days

[shaunybonny]

Several years from now after the conclusion of this series this is going to be one of the best on YouTube IMO. Some young men will find this and be able to enjoy it start to finish in one sitting, I’m happy for them. Thanks 👊🏻

[wusthof]

For all the newbs for this channel, this guy has put 10s of thousands of dollars into his 2007. Love seeing how far an S197 can go. Keep it up!!!

Love the comparison with a stock 3V stang. Huge difference. Must be that ceramic coating 😊

[Nekroman]

The quality of editing, the attention to detail, and straight to point yet informative points is refreshing. I don’t even own that type of mustang but i’m a car guy above all. I always loved this body type and i always root for the underdog. I own a 69 mustang with a stock (for now) 302w. I hope to be able to keep up with my 07 srt8 6.1 (a bit modified nothing crazy but it’s quick). Love that you also have a Mopar to have both cars compete. I had to share how impressed i am and i immediately subscribed, hello everyone reading this.

I’ve been doing this exact same build almost for the past 2 years! So nice seeing other people appreciating this car! Mine is a2010 grabber blue, but the main differences are that I swapped the front end with a 2014, rebuilt the 5speed to be more appropriate, and did a mcloud clutch. I have mine setup for drift instead of drag, but idk how I didn’t find this sooner! Can’t wait to see it as it goes!

[ctoacu]

Absolutley love this channel. The idea of pushing platforms to their limits and testing them is always fun to watch!

[roger]

Always explaining things the right way and not being boring 👏

[matteightytwo]

UK viewer here. Not usually a US car follower but they way you approach issues and show your findings makes for a really good watch

[ringo]

I had a 2007 Mustang GT many years ago in college and that was my favorite car. Amazing video. The quality of your editing is excellent!

[Rockit]

I was wanting to see what a high comp NA build could do to begin with, glad you've also decided to find that out before going boost!

[fossilfueled]

That Mustang sounds absolutely godly. Love what you've done with it! Honestly though I wouldn't go further. It just seems so perfect the way it is. It's got the right power, and amazing sound and response without being too crazy. Almost seems a shame to mess with what looks like perfection.

[PedlMetl]

The build has come so far and there is still so much room for improvement. Cant wait to see
