Ford will sell you 810 hp for your Mustang, and it keeps the warranty intact
An official 810 hp Mustang, sold by the box
Ford has just made getting 810 hp out of your Mustang GT refreshingly simple. The new Ford Racing FP800S Bronze Package is an official supercharger kit that nearly doubles the standard car's output, and best of all, have a dealer fit it and your warranty survives the process.
Where the power comes from
At the heart of the package is a Gen 6 3.0-litre Whipple supercharger bolted to the Mustang GT's 5.0-litre V8. The result is 810 hp and around 834 Nm, a huge step up from the roughly 480 hp the standard car makes. Ford is clear about the conditions: you need at least 91-octane premium fuel, and cars without the active exhaust make 10 hp less. It fits Mustang GT models from 2024 to 2026.
More than just an engine kit
The Bronze Package is a full visual and mechanical makeover. Alongside the supercharger you get an air-oil separator kit, upgraded Ford Performance half shafts to handle the torque, track-capable suspension tuning, and 19-inch Flow Formed R1 wheels in bronze, 10.5 inches wide at the front and 11 at the rear. Styling comes via an Air Design decklid, rear wheel spats, a modular grille with bronze inserts, and bronze graphics and badges inside and out.
A fuller concept version too
Ford's Custom Garage also lists a more extensive FP800S Bronze MagneRide Concept build, running to 25 separate components. That configuration adds a Ford Performance Extreme cat-back exhaust, a street lowering kit, carbon-fibre spoiler, front splitter, hood vent and mirror caps, Recaro seats with Ford Performance logos, bronze lug nuts and a ProCal tool for speedometer recalibration. Ford has not published pricing or separate power figures for that fuller specification.
What it costs, and the catch
The kit itself is 18,500 dollars, roughly 16,200 euro, and you supply the Mustang. Budget around 5,000 dollars more for professional fitting, taking the realistic total to about 23,500 dollars. Do it through a Ford dealer or authorised technician and the work carries a three-year, 36,000-mile Ford Racing warranty. The catch for us is geography: it is sold through the US Ford Performance network, so European Mustang owners are watching from the sidelines.
AutoNext Take
This is tuning done properly. The single biggest worry with big-power aftermarket kits has always been what happens when something breaks, and Ford removing that anxiety with a genuine three-year warranty is what makes this so appealing. Getting 810 hp with factory backing, for less than the price of a decent hatchback, is remarkable value in a way the ABT and Novitec packages of this world rarely manage.
Just be realistic about what you are buying. This is a straight-line hammer: the suspension and brakes get comparatively little attention, so it will suit a drag strip far better than a demanding circuit. And of course, being a US-only offer, most of us can only admire it. Still, an official 810 hp Mustang for kit money is a lovely thing to exist.
