Ultimate Performance Mustang: Steeda Reveals The Q850 StreetFighter
Read the full story on The Auto Wire Ford tuner Steeda has released its take on the S650 Mustang, called the Q850 StreetFighter. According to Steeda it's 'the most advanced performance Mustang' it's ever released, thanks to 37 years of tuning pony cars. It's also designed for road or track use. That's some big course, Steeda backs that up with some big improvements to the S650 Mustang GT. It starts with a Whipple supercharger bolted onto the Coyote V8, pushing peak output to 810-horsepower and 640 lb.-ft. of torque. That's enough to get the pony really galloping. But as they say, a lot of power is useless if you can't control it. For that, Steeda developed a completely new G-Trac Fully Adjustable Suspension/Chassis Package. The company claims that adding just that to a stock Mustang shaves 7 seconds off the lap time at Sebring. Nice. Included in the package are coilovers up front, shocks in the rear, bump steer correction kit, billet aluminum subframe support bushing inserts, IRS subframe bracing system, adjustable sway bars with CNC billet ends, and front chassis bracing. All that is supposed to tighten up handling and increase responsiveness, helping the Mustang to corner much better. Plus, there's a Stage II G-Trac Fully Adjustable Suspension/Chassis Package for customers looking to really get serious about handling. Another offering for the Q850 StreetFighter is a carbon fiber package. Parts included are the race wing, lip spoiler, mirror caps, vents, and door sills. We're unsure how much curb weight that sheds, but the parts look cool. Customers can also get an upgraded brake system, four-point roll cage with rear seat delete, six-point safety harness, a leather and carbon fiber steering wheel, and a race-inspired leather upholstery package. Buyers can also add bespoke upgrades to their Mustang, for a price. Steeda says it used both Sebring International Raceway and the Nurburgring Nordschleife in the testing of the Q850 StreetFighter. That's impressive and quite the testament to the company's development process. Images via Steeda Join our Newsletter, subscribe to our YouTube page, and follow us on Facebook.

Steeda Supercharges 2025 Ford Mustang GT to a Staggering 810 Horsepower
⚡️ Read the full article on Motorious Steeda, the renowned aftermarket modifier, has unveiled its latest creation: the Q850 StreetFighter package for the 2025 Ford Mustang GT. This new offering transforms the already powerful Mustang into an 810-horsepower beast, positioning it as a top contender in the high-performance sports car market at a price point that undercuts major competitors. The 2025 Mustang GT, originally equipped with a 5.0-liter V8 engine producing 480 horsepower, receives a significant boost with Steeda's modifications. A key element of the upgrade is the installation of a 3.0-liter Whipple supercharger, elevating the Mustang's output to 810 horsepower and increasing torque to 640 pound-feet. Steeda's Q850 StreetFighter isn't just about raw power. The package includes comprehensive drivetrain and chassis enhancements to handle the increased output. This includes a Steeda Tri-Ax short-throw shifter kit for manual transmissions, severe-duty half shafts, and a billet oil separator. The Mustang's handling is refined with Steeda's G-Trac suspension package, featuring Pro-Action adjustable coilovers, adjustable rear shock absorbers, and various other performance-focused modifications. The visual stance is equally aggressive, featuring Steeda Trident lightweight wheels, sized 19x10 inches in the front and 19x11 inches in the rear, wrapped in Nitto NT555 G2 high-performance tires. This setup not only enhances the Mustang's aesthetic but also its grip and handling on the road. Priced at an additional $36,995 on top of the Mustang GT's base price, the Q850 StreetFighter package offers a compelling alternative to more expensive models like the Shelby GT350, making it an attractive option for enthusiasts seeking extreme performance without the premium price tag. As Steeda continues to push the boundaries of aftermarket Mustang performance, the Q850 StreetFighter stands as a testament to the company's engineering prowess and dedication to muscle car culture.
