Hot products for ’05 Mustangs
According to import specialists, the 2005 Ford Mustang remains the hottest-selling new American car in the UK at the moment. It’s also a model that is ripe for modification, and USAutomotive Ltd, this country’s premier supplier of aftermarket components for American cars, has many items available to enhance both the performance and the looks of this highly desirable vehicle.Steeda GT High-Flow Air Kit
Steeda products are available exclusively in the UK from USAutomotive Ltd. The highly respected company’s High-Flow Air Kit for the ‘05 Mustang delivers an impressive 38 extra, dynamometer-proven horsepower compared with the stock intake system. This is achieved by reducing restriction and increasing surface area in order to flow more air. The kit is an easy bolt-on for the garage mechanic, and includes a re-flash tool, which is essential to reprogramme the induction metering unit.
Steeda 4.6L Underdrive Pulleys
Steeda Underdrive pulleys for the ‘05 Mustang return some of the power and torque drained by belt-driven accessories – in fact, as much as 8-10 free horsepower! The pulleys lower the speed of driven accessories by about 25 per cent, thereby both reducing engine drag and improving fuel consumption.
BORLA Cat-Back™ System
BORLA’s massive range of award-winning exhaust systems is sold exclusively through USAutomotive Ltd in the UK. For ‘05 Mustangs, Borla has developed a Cat-Back™ system, which not only unleashes hidden horsepower, but also sounds amazing, with a deep, burbling engine note that is totally different from the stock Mustang system. Each exhaust is produced from premium, Aircraft-Quality, T-304 stainless steel to provide the absolute best in performance and durability. Ultra-smooth mandrel bends ensure maximum flow and power, and precision, computer-controlled CNC manufacturing ensures consistency of production and accuracy of fit. BORLA’s belief in its quality standards is such that every system comes with a Million-Mile Warranty.
Haynes 2005 Mustang Workshop Manual
USAutomotive is a major stockist of Haynes workshop manuals for American cars. The latest title to hit the shelves just in time for Christmas covers the 2005 to 2007 Mustang models, including V6 and V8-engined variants, but excluding the GT500.
American Racing Wheels
USAutomotive is a key UK agent for American Racing wheels, a long-established company whose products have long been a favourite with Mustang owners. The timeless, five-spoke Torq Thrust wheel is still a popular choice, although larger diameter derivatives of this wheel, and many others, are available to accommodate the current, ultra-low profile tyres fitted to ‘05 Mustangs.
Street Scene Equipment
For those ’05 Mustang owners seeking more radical body styling, USAutomotive is a UK agent for Street Scene Equipment’s Gen 1 body styling package. This kit transforms the Mustang’s looks with a urethane front bumper/valance, matching side skirts, rear valance and optional rear side widow grilles that emulate the look of first-generation Mustangs.
General Service Parts
Finally, while it’s easy to become preoccupied with the tuning potential of the ’05 Mustang, its worth remembering that USAutomotive’s core business is the supply of service components for American car owners in the UK. With this in mind, the company stocks spark plugs, filters and all of the other fast-moving parts to keep ‘05 Mustangs, and their still much-loved predecessors, on the road.
