2011 – 2012 Ford Mustang throttle body by BBK06 Dec

  Filed Under: 2011 Mustang,2012 Mustang,Aftermarket,Mustang Tech

Brothers Performance is pumped to announce the all-new BBK Power Plus series throttle body for the 2011 Ford Mustang and the 2012 Ford Mustang.  This piece is a definite way to bolster performance for the late-model 3.7L V6-powered Mustang in under 20 minutes with the use of mere hand tools.  Don’t worry about having to scrounge up supplemental fitment & parts, either–BBK ensures these throttle bodies match up plug-and-play style for an easy installation.  Also, there are no TPS voltage settings to tweak, which means this piece is simply installed and you can hit the street and/or strip right afterward because there is absolutely no tuning required!

Brothers Performance also carries the 2011 Ford Mustang and 2012 Ford Mustang GT and 2012 Boss 302 version of this same throttle body, keeping the new Coyote crowd appeased with miles of smiles.

Be sure to check out the V6 dyno sheet and the short video clip after the hop!

Marti Auto Works Ford Mustang hardtop window sticker

We know first hand a superior Ford Mustang fan and supporter when we meet one, and every one of the fine folks at Marti Auto Works has shown to be the ones to set the bar.  Now, after continuing their data mining & spelunking, they have formulated an extravagant process to reproduce exact original window stickers which were on Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles.  Each one of them has received the focus and data integrity to make them as rock-solid as the cars they once…and now adorn(ed).

Everything right down to the exact weight of paper printed upon, the correct pin-punched holes, and precise manufacturer terminology in options and dealer requisites is completely on-target.

2011 Mustang & 2012 Mustang transmission scrutinized08 Aug

  Filed Under: 2011 Mustang,2012 Mustang,Ford,Mustang Tech

What do you get when you cross the 2011 Ford Mustang and the 2012 Ford Mustang and a 6-speed transmission made in China?  An official investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration based upon numerous customer complaints, that’s what.  Well over two-dozen Mustang owners have officially vented filed their frustrations about unexpected inability to shift into gear on the 2011 Mustang and the 2012 Mustang, regardless of power plant (the commonality: the 6-speed manual gearbox).

What’s the basal impact here?  26,000 units, covering model years 2011 and 2012 of the Ford Mustang.  The government involvement and consumer backlash impact could deal a resounding blow to the Blue Oval; not what we wanted to hear on the eve of ‘Barackalypse Now’, guys.  Detroit has had its fair share of bad PR in the past few years–this one isn’t helping matters much…

AmericanPonyBuilders Project needs your help01 Jul

  Filed Under: Ford,Videos

How much did you spend on soda this week?  Fast food?  Tobacco?  We thought as much.  What if we told you, the Ford Mustang enthusiast masses, you could all have the chance to make a difference and see a good cause forwarded to benefit all Mustang fanatics the world ’round?

Late in 2010, we told you about a Ford Mustang TV show which would bring about a new series focused upon everything Mustang!  The problem here today is getting the funding & backing to make this vision a reality.  The fine folks behind the project have already reached out to every major broadcaster in hopes of getting this bird out of the nest, but guess what…it takes coin…and lots of it.

Inside the Press Release is a way each one of you Mustang fans can actually make a real difference in this project.  Be sure to give this one a close look, as we think this is going to be a pretty cool deal coming to fruition.

And by the way…yes, we’re in.
