No love for the Aussie only Stang? Hmmmm
If an approximately 700-horsepower Mustang rings Shelby GT500 alarm bells, then you were thinking the same way as us — the GT500 makes even more at 760 horsepower with a different engine. This Mustang is no Australian-spec GT500 from any angle. Instead, it’s a Mustang GT with a 5.0-liter V8 that’s been littered with Ford Performance parts and received a working over by Australian tuner Herrod Performance.

Herrod performance sounds much like a down under counterpart to Roush here?
https://www.roushperformance.com/ Oh..non response is partially because I left the church.

Thanks, but no thanks, I'll take a 15-17 GT with an AMERICAN MUSCLE twin turbo "Hellion" kit for more HP, and less $$.

Peter, if you want it, do it. I would advise proceeding carefully with the massive torque and power though. I'm sure you have the maturity to handle it, but there will be quite a learning curve.
