Recent Work – RTR-X Dyno Session

The Mustang RTR-X sounds as good as it looks – amazing. A 1969 Ford Mustang with a present day Ford Racing 5.0L Coyote Engine – breathing with Kinsler Individual Throttle Bodies and controlled by a MOTEC stand-alone ECU. Which allows the tuner to adjust cam angle through the ECU and uses the Ford’s cam position sensor – instead of just disabling that feature. Built and tuned by Twins Turbo Motorsports in Signal Hill, California, dreamed up by Formula Drift champion Vaughn Gittin JR and designed by Andy Blackmore – the RTR-X is a thing of beauty. I cannot wait to shoot it in action.

Here is a quick video I shot and edited featuring the RTR-X and it’s first session on the dynometer. It produced over four hundred horsepower at the wheels – whereas many tuners quote their power output at the flywheel, this is four hundred to the ground. On pump gasoline. A street car. YEEhaw.
