My 1500 HP Shelby GT500 was the same way! When my car ran at the Texas mile we lost traction all the way through 140 MPH and still ran 227 MPH. Definitely changed up the drivability and turned the HP down for the streets. You wouldn’t believe how much faster you can be just by gaining traction over HP.
When stepping up to a big money standalone engine management solution like Motec. The game moves to another level. It was great listening to Jay to a rundown on what it offers especially as far as power management goes.
I'm trying to get a build like this. I fixed up a 2008 GT500, but that won't really do this kind of horsepower so I'm looking for a 2014 GT500 as my base and I'll get started on some of the modifications that I've seen from this channel! I need to find a machinist to help me achieve this goal though by porting the heads/lower intake. Thanks once again for making these videos as I get to see what goes on with the different little bits and pieces that all go together to make a car like this work.
The right build can do this with a 5.4. The world record standing mile ford GT made north of 3,000 hp after John Mihovetz prepared the factory block and heads to achieve that feat. Al Papitto used to build these as well.
I agree with Randy V. My favorite hands down. I WOULD LOVE TO WATCH THIS SMASH STREETSPEED. That would be the best thing to see. There is no better car on this platform, youtube, considering what it is, meaning, perfect in all the ways. Street, strip, cruise etc..
HEELLLLL YEAH!!! NOW ITS TIME TO BEAT SOME ASS!!LOL😂😂🤣👌👌👍🤘🤙🤜🤛 get out there and line up some races . Cant wait to see what that bad boy takes down ❤❤❤❤❤
@@floki1664 its not all about speed my friend. Sure theres a ton of ways to go fast. As a mustang enthusiast, this particular car is just so awesome. That's my opinion though.
Incredible…. Always been one of my favorite cars/ years of Mustang ….. technology today…. It’s a good time to enjoy fast cars… short of the EPA. Your car is cool AF. Enjoy it . I’ll joy watching your follow-up videos
Dude on that one pull, I've never seen your eyes that big, when you said that was your fastest 60-130. You definitely need to set up a run with streetspeed.
Wow it looks like you have your El Choppo able to be street race ready with some personal tweeks and not spin @ 130 mph, this is a awesome setup and make it fun to drive again.
Lmao still remember when you first got it after selling the 03 cobra and saying you didnt want to do much to it cause E85 was a hassle to get lmao look where we're at now
I absolutely LOVE the 15" wheels on the back. I would love to be able to get 15" wheels front and rear for a Mustang, with BF Goodrich RWL Radial T/As on them. That would be one beautiful car. The huge GHETTO REEHUUM/no tire thing just doesn't cut it.
It's so crazy to see this car with such good drivability and actually hookin and bookin! Definitely way safer which is very important too. Happy to see you really enjoying this car. It's been quite the journey and awesome to see👍
I'd love to see a price breakdown video of the motec, install and tuning! I've always been super interested in ECU upgrades for mustangs but have absolutely no clue what that kind of upgrade costs. It seems to to be pretty much the ultimate upgrade you can do to a car.
So your telling me he basically figured out how to make this car act like a turbo car with a boost controller? So you can have a 600 setting, a 800, 1000, 1200, then a 1350 setting? That’s wild.
I thought that was you leaving the other day I work right down the street from real street and you pass by my job is like huh there goes mustang lifestyle
You should do a custom side exit exhaust on that snake or find a Borla, Corsa magmaflow side exit exhaust that would be nice and make it more efficient to receive more power and acceleration and help get all burnt fumes out quicker.
Good evening. That Shelby is BAF. I'm interested in buying a 2013-2014 Shelby GT500 engine and transmission swap for my 1990 coupe. If anyone out there has a lead please let me know. Thank you
Hey I talked to a company in Australia about sequential shifter that will bolt on the tr6060 for my Shelby it’s a little pricey I might try to get on next year
@@gregoryjowers3629 saw a well known drift RUclips lose the on the great escape show because she couldn't get it in reverse under pressure. All the players in the show said it was a good shifter unless you want to go into reverse quickly.
Like I said before my supersnake is 900hp and on the street it's nuts fast and it's hard to hook but 1352hp is just too much for the street. It's like thinking my 900hp plus a Terminator power on top of my 900hp.THAT'S CRAZY TOO THINK.I even think my 07 427 convertable supersnake is fast with roughly 650hp and it is lol the power numbers today are nuts.
Any one wondering who did a fantastic job at building this monster "Modular head shop " respect he got a Chanel make sure to subscribe to his channel 👌💪🤘😎
Great build. I would highly suggest putting 4:10 gears in that vehicle just due to it being a heavier car and the gears being extremely long. Your leaving a lot of acceleration on the table and with that motec it would be a perfect marriage.
@@MustangLifestyleTV it has 3-31 gears from the factory and it’s a double overdrive and your probably doing 120 in 3rd gear. Your are losing boost and acceleration when you shift because they thing is falling off due to gearing. Plus that’s a damn near 4K lb car with you in it. 4:10 gears will give you a mechanical advantage and with that traction control you can take advantage of it. Trust me it will be night and day. It should also put you into the top of 4th gear through the quarter which is what you want. Even with that power you are going to get gapped by less powerful cars not only cause you have a manual but because the gearing and the weight the vehicle. Trust me mine makes just as much power as yours but in a 2990 lbs street car but it runs mid 7’s and cuts 4’s through the 1/8 mile with 3:55 gears through a 4l80e with a manual valve body. And we are still sorting out the setup.

Hello, can you please what you are using for street suspension? Thanks.
Choppo is nasty! Congrats on getting healthy. I’m on my weight loss journey as we speak, down almost 30lbs with a lot more to go.💪🏾
Bad ass ..

I'd like to see him run Naterider. Lmao
is thing can’t hook streetspeed would smash it easily
That should all get together and do a racing tournament including loser bracket
This guy explained motec perfectly, thanks lol
The Motec has really made the car. The investment is worthwhile and nessary.
Dude, you have the coolest mustangs/ shelbys ever. Hands down
Jay is the man, hands down one of the most talented tuners around.
HEELLLLL YEAH!!!
NOW ITS TIME TO BEAT SOME ASS!!LOL😂😂🤣👌👌👍🤘🤙🤜🤛 get out there and line up some races . Cant wait to see what that bad boy takes down ❤❤❤❤❤
Still my favourite car on RUclips, and i watch all the big car channels. Such a nasty build Andrew.

@@floki1664 you truly have no idea what your talking about.
Best video yet on the GT500
dam i literally listened to jay explain that whole motec system, dope video
Traction control by the throttle blade … never EVEN. Heard of that !
Great video !
Yeah I’d love to see this at a race motive event with everyone else
Incredible…. Always been one of my favorite cars/ years of Mustang ….. technology today…. It’s a good time to enjoy fast cars… short of the EPA. Your car is cool AF. Enjoy it . I’ll joy watching your follow-up videos
Excellent video explaining the benefits of the Motec system! Great investment!
GT500 is nasty as hell man congrats
Dude on that one pull, I've never seen your eyes that big, when you said that was your fastest 60-130. You definitely need to set up a run with streetspeed.
I think Street speed is a low four 60 to 130 Andrews got a long way to go
Dang is he really, I didn't realize Mikes car was that fast. I mean I know its fast but dam low 4s 60-130, thats getting it
@@11B_GRUNT it's a vette with well over 1000 at the tire of course its fast.
That shelby is a Fn monster and sounds like the executioner is coming. You handle it like a champ bro... Nice AF.
WWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWW , you can tell by the look on Andrews face that fucker was moving 😂 . Love it bro 😎
Glad you’re enjoying it man! Way better than my old ms3 👀😂
The CHOPP is back! Love it.
Love it, I could see the tunnel vision in your eyes.
Wow welcome back GT500! Thanks 😊
damn that must be an absolute blast now!
Wow it looks like you have your El Choppo able to be street race ready with some personal tweeks and
not spin @ 130 mph, this is a awesome setup and make it fun to drive again.
I'm a simple man... I see El Choppo I click like. Its that easy.
Lmao still remember when you first got it after selling the 03 cobra and saying you didnt want to do much to it cause E85 was a hassle to get lmao look where we're at now
That didn't last long lol
By far the most exciting car on RUclips!!
That reaction was Great! That chuckle, you were having a Blast!! LOL!!
no prep guys would love this new motec traction control
I absolutely LOVE the 15" wheels on the back. I would love to be able to get 15" wheels front and rear for a Mustang, with BF Goodrich RWL Radial T/As on them. That would be one beautiful car. The huge GHETTO REEHUUM/no tire thing just doesn't cut it.
This motec system is awesome Brother!!!
Stuff that is this clean i really dig. Hats off to Motec and real st. This is going to be so enjoyable Andrew . Good luck.
So awesome to see driving the ish outta that thing again buddy!!
Today is the big day turbo bullit
Would love to talk to you about cost/experience with this entire motec upgrade if possible. I’m in pretty much the exact same boat as you with my car.
I would like to know as well. Possibly make a video about it?
It's so crazy to see this car with such good drivability and actually hookin and bookin! Definitely way safer which is very important too. Happy to see you really enjoying this car. It's been quite the journey and awesome to see👍
Miss this car for sure!!
Wow can't wait to see some races with this
Such a sick car. 🔥🔥🔥
Oh god is right, that thing is a MONSTER! I literally laughed out loud man, unbelievable!
So happy for you brotha
One bad ass mustang happy for you dude.
"There's never enough horsepower, just not enough traction"
As another person with an S197, this excites me!

If ya gotta wonder how much then it’s probably to much
@@robertgoodman4430 What a stupid thing to say
About 3-5k for just the ecu. Gonna cost a lot more to actually get it to run
Yes please
@@deanojet2991 There's actually quite a bit of truth to that statement.
So your telling me he basically figured out how to make this car act like a turbo car with a boost controller?
So you can have a 600 setting, a 800, 1000, 1200, then a 1350 setting?

The motech sounds like the way to go
I thought that was you leaving the other day I work right down the street from real street and you pass by my job is like huh there goes mustang lifestyle
Omg it stayed straight el choppo back in businesses boyy
Turbo bullet 2v I can’t wait to get things started
This is fantastic.
I hope to see this car in person some day.
Could listen to Jay all day , very cool
That car is flat out mooovviinn
That beast sounds so nasty, I love it!
Holy shit nice driving man !
Andrew dude you lost a shit ton of weight bruh! Getting ready for that wedding huh?!? Haha I mean race season, yeah race season
Definitely race season haha
@@MustangLifestyleTV what model
Motec did you get?
@@Hayabusagsxr1300 m150
I love this car but I like when they spin
El choppo has came a long way.
Definitely need to take it to TX2K
You should do a custom side exit exhaust on that snake or find a Borla, Corsa magmaflow side exit exhaust that would be nice and make it more efficient to receive more power and acceleration and help get all burnt fumes out quicker.
Do you know how a supercharger works?
You've lost a lot of weight since ur 03 cobra. I'm proud!
Good evening. That Shelby is BAF. I'm interested in buying a 2013-2014 Shelby GT500 engine and transmission swap for my 1990 coupe. If anyone out there has a lead please let me know. Thank you
Send me a text at 407-680-3494. We can get you what you need
Dude. Seeing that look on your face tells me this car is FUCKING SCARY FAST!
Dame it if u have tht much HP u should race strange mode to see who’s got the faster GT 500
Motec would definitely win imo
Sweet ride! nice job bro!
What cams are in your gt500 in this video Andrew??
Mhs stage 3 cams
Tht thing sounds amazing
I think you should get a roll bar and a harness soon.
So the motec would do a better job with a turbo I am taking it.
🔥🔥🔥 FL2K Prep
Going to be lit!
Did the motec run you about $6000?
I wish your old terminator would've gotten the built engine and ecu it deserved 😥
Hey I talked to a company in Australia about sequential shifter that will bolt on the tr6060 for my Shelby it’s a little pricey I might try to get on next year

Very very nice, can't wait to see more
That’s scary power bro lol but once you get used to it your gonna want more😂
Well done car, Andrew.
you need a full cage!

How much has the whole build cost including the motec system?
ONE DAY God Speed Boys
Will this beat a 1400 whp gtr?
When your eyebrows raise because of how fast you were going, haha.
The look on your face!
Would love to watch this race against a plaid
Isnt traction control controlled by wheel speed the best?

Who is your recommendation for MoTec install and tuning in Florida?
I just throw a few sand bags in the trunk 😊
Beast
You need to race that guy from the plaid channel he is real cocky! I love for him to get a taste of his own medicine with a real motor!! 😉
looked fast af at setting #7..gotta be minimum 7k for 1 of them motecs im thinking..
More
Bro you need a cage in that beast!!
It's unfortunate this car really needs Motec and companies like Ecutek can't unlock the stock ECU and give you 90% of what Motec offers.
Can you adjust the RPMs like he was showing on the video on a 2020 mustang premium GT with it being bone stock?
Interesting as hell
Luv tha car💪🏿
Great build. I would highly suggest putting 4:10 gears in that vehicle just due to it being a heavier car and the gears being extremely long. Your leaving a lot of acceleration on the table and with that motec it would be a perfect marriage.
