Here is the latest tuning work from the guys at GeigerCars, based on the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. They are calling it the GT640 Golden Snake since the car now produces 640 PS and 789 Nm of torque from the 5.4-liter V8 engine. It comes equipped with a supercharger, reprogrammed ECU, and stainless steel exhaust system allowing the Mustang sports car to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds, before reaching a top speed of 295 km/h (183 mph). However, that’s not all of the tuning it received, the car didn’t get the Golden Snake nickname for no reason.

The tuners from Loder1899 have released a new performance and styling kit for the compact MPV Ford C-MAX. They described it as turning one of the “unpopular geeks” into “a popular jock,” by adding a new front spoiler, faux rear diffuser, and tailgate mounted spoiler before moving onto the performance. The Ford C-MAX was dropped 35 mm while an assortment of wheels are available ranging from 18 to 20-inches. Under the hood, the car is powered by a 2.0-liter TDCI engine that has been modified with a reprogrammed ECU to increase the output to 188 hp and 390 Nm of torque. At the track, this small Ford car from Loder1899 was able to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.3 seconds, while reaching a top speed of 163 mph.

It looks like the best Saleen cars have come to an end, since the parent company Revstone announced plans to ceise manufacturing the performance Ford Mustangs. A sad day for the tuning world, especially in the states since the Mustang is one of the most popular cars to modify these days. Hopefully, something better will come. They want to focus on other aftermarket performance parts, and will stop production of the S302 come the third quarter of 2011. As seen in previous articles here on Fancy Tuning, the S302 Ford Mustang GT features an aftermarket body kit, sport suspension, and limited slip differential for boosted performance.
