Vid of 5.0 11.82 run !
"They started things off slow, when the car was basically stock right down to the stock 19" wheels and tires, which netted them a 12.88 (fairly close to Motor Trend's results). After that, the old shoes were kicked off for some Mickey Thompson ET Streets, and some tweaking under the rear end was done - including a set of aftermarket upper and lower control arms. With just some minor suspension tweaks and good tires, they took the car out to Cecil County Dragway, where they were able to make a best run of 12.49 at 112 before nightfall put an end to the fun for the evening.
The guys over at Evolution knew there was more in that setup since they weren't leaving extremely hard shown by the 1.8 60 foot time, but they were anxious to get working on the off-road cat-less X pipe and modified Borla cat-back exhaust to have a sweet rumble and also unleash a few horses. Along with the exhaust, they popped in a K&N drop-In filter and an in-house custom tune using SCT software.
The results speak for themselves - Not only did they bump the dyno numbers jump up to 405 horsepower to the wheels, but they thundered this 2011 Mustang down the quarter mile in 12.04 seconds, hitting the traps at 117 MPH. Also, a tenth was shaved off their 60 foot time. Evolution is positive it'll go 11's without any more mods to the car, but they realized after about a dozen track runs, dyno time, street fun and such, they've gotten all they can out of the stock clutch for now. Not too much of a disappointment, after all, it's an excuse for more modifications now, right? Stay tuned to see what else Evolution Performance has in store for this 5.0.
Pulls of the 2011 Mustang in stock form making 368hp. They picked up 42whp with simple bolt on mods... not bad."

I can't wait to see how an '11 does in true 'full bolt on' trim with a little weight taken out.
