How We Made the Ultimate Track Sleeper! | Steeda Q500

[@chisquare5701]

You can't be a sleeper with splitter struts, but man, that "Hurting feelings" edit was pure perfection, not too aggressive, but a goo zinger. Excellent, Steeda! 😂

[@frederickcook87]

Yup 😂

[@mistersecret88]

Total Camaro guy here. But since Chevrolet abandoned us I will be looking into this sweet car.

[@ZZ-ed6wp]

Shame -but Ford , as dumb as they are, is at least still making us a 4000lb affordable sports car.

[@mistersecret88]

@@ZZ-ed6wp and my m4 weighs 4213

[@Neospartacus12]

I used to be a Firebird guy, but when GM abandoned us I went Mustang and never looked back.

[@mistersecret88]

@Neospartacus12 but but but. It's coming back. Lol no.

[@TattleDelta]

@@ZZ-ed6wp The BMW M2, which is a smaller car than a Mustang, weighs just as much lol.

[@race-ist5point0]

I gotta give it to STEEDA. I was at the Legendary ROAD ATLANTA 7/19/24 (storming rain) and I out powered an S550 Mustang GT by at least 300HP and blew him and the other cars away including a '24 M4 Competition on straights, but that GT had your full kit and left me on turns. In the heavy rain! I'll be getting a few parts from you soon👍🏾

[@MustangBMXer]

You guys are awesome. I have a 94 Cobra and I have your suspension and chassis support and it's the best. By the way I daily my Mustang it's my only car and it handles awesome. By the way I drive it in the snow too.

[@NudaMan]

More love for the SN95’s 👍, hopefully pick up a 5.0 sooner or later too & daily it

[@jamaalhawkins5085]

The first minute of the video is so tuff 🔥🔥 give the editor a raise!

[@gordydexter2615]

Hey Scott, great video!! I have a Dark Horse on order so I’m looking forward to replicating what you guys do with your Dark Horse. I have a 911 Turbo S but I don’t daily it anymore since in my previous Porsche I totaled it in a head-on-collision that took me 3.5 years to recover from. So the plan is to daily drive my Dark Horse as opposed to my F-150. I will track it twice per year but will daily drive it. First purchase items for me will be your Steeda Stop the Hop kit and Dual-rate springs; followed by Kooks headers. Thank you for the detailed information on your Q-500. Looking forward to enhancing my Mustang so that it matches my 911 Turbo drive character!!! Cheers‼️👍👊💪😎🐎

[@davidperez3013]

Since I got my Speeda parts im definitely faster on Time Trials (3rd place now) by about 5+ seconds faster per lap. Great quality parts that perform on track.

[@stewart-D]

Good video , I think this is what the average guy wants, get ice cream on Sunday and hit the track once a month

[@OptimusKline-uz1ig]

Love the cars Misha has taken around the Ring! Can’t wait for the big wing!

[@ioannischristou2362]

awesome car!

[@user-bk5ey9ws5g]

Great video yet again Scott. I've been coming to steeda's pompano location since 1994. Steeda's has always been there to satisfy my addiction for speed over the years. I brought my first car a 91 gt , my 2001 Cobra and now my current 2019 gt pp1 10 speed to steeda. My 19 Gt I have pretty much copied your 18 silver bullet mod list minus the circle D, tubular K member and carbon fiber trunk. My car's also silver lol. I just recently moved to Roswell GA and look forward to visiting your location up here and hopefully checking out the 18 silver in person. possibly.

[@marcasswellbmd6922]

I wish NJ had shops like this near by.. It seems like I'm going to have to travel out of state through several states even to get my GT Whippled and tuned right.. I going to need a clutch, injectors fuel, Whipple, oil pump gears and crank sprocket, upgraded rear half shafts, MGW shifter and other stuff too.. You can see how the money add's up fast..

[@mkb1690]

Why do you need OPG and Crank sprockets? Those are needed if you like to bounce off redline, but reputable people say it's not necessary otherwise (unless you're making 1000+ HP). Also, get a tune from Lund, they are the software engineering equivalent of Steeda's hardware engineering team.

[@IMGONEIN60]

Awesome but I would love to see this video on the S650 now👍🏽👍🏽

[@bnight2]

did you ever tested the Q500 with simple linear 800 spring instead of the Dual Rate ? Is the competition bar only needed because of the 1200 rate of the Dual Springs ? Also the IRS Base kit dropped 0.5 seconds off my lap times witch considering the track was 2 km's long was mighty impressive.

[@LongStroke351]

yes, the comp rear bar allows for more rear bite when coming off corners and getting maximum traction.

[@glenv5380]

Yes the higher rate springs required an adjustment in roll stiffness, which is why the comp rear bar was made.

[@bnight2]

@@glenv5380 thanks just wanted to verify that my understanding is correct so if running let's say 800 lbs rear springs the OEM PP1 rear bar should give enough traction.

[@McknightBo]

Amen thanks for this video, can’t wait to install these parts in my 2019 mustang gt premium pp1

[@fvinazdesert]

Great videos, I'm looking to add Kooks long tube headers to my 2024 Dark Horse, I notice while you were talking about the car during the drive it wasn't very load in the car. How much louder is it inside the car with the headers?

[@LongStroke351]

It's not too bad. Actually love the sound of this car.

[@MatthewLeidyWork]

I get that the "Q" comes before "R" and I am down with the thought there. One extra thing I will say could we also add "Quality" for another reason of the "Q". I currently have some of your parts for my 2012 Ford Fusion and I love everything that they have done for my baby. So I can vouch on the quality side as well. Keep up the good work. Hoping to get another vehicle soon that will get your pieces installed on it.

[@matthewpatton5398]

aren't those rotors the slash-cuts are backwards?

[@infamouscraze6059]

My 2016 guard green metallic still has only 24k km on it..peformance pack no mods yet I'd love to turn it into a steeda build

[@infamouscraze6059]

4 years owning this I only seen 1 other one like it but thousands of other stands just don't look the same as my baby

[@tanstorm1]

How did the 18 inch tires clear the brembo breaks ?

[@BOOMER9551]

What’s the spring rate

[@julioalvarado7048]

👍Q500

[@g04tn4d0]

I need to mail my supercharged Dark Horse to you at some point.

[@steedaautosports]

We've got 2 Dark Horse Whipple jobs in the shop at the moment. When you're ready just give us a call 1-800-950-0774!

[@panteraowns2515]

I can't find mmr wheels

[@steedaautosports]

They're actually MRR wheels and you can find them here -> www.steeda.com/2015-2023-mustang-wheels-and-tires?page=1&rb_brand=MRR%20Design

[@TattleDelta]

I swear, the definition of what a sleeper is gets looser each day.

[@marcasswellbmd6922]

It's amazing just how much money can be dumped into these cars without making 1 extra HP of power.. Most stuff is for sucker's.. There are a lot of things from steeda I do recommend, but most of what he has shown so far doesn't really help much.. Don't dare change out your air box unless you got a tuner ready to go so the car runs right.. If you don't live near a track don't even bother with half this stuff.. Get the IRS braces and call it a day..

[@belchbat9955]

sick build but in what planet is a gt500 a sleeper lmaooo

[@MikesVBs]

It’s not a gt500😂 it’s just a 5.0 but still nowadays I would hardly consider a 5.0 a sleeper car

[@frederickcook87]

I like what you guys do but that script about hurting Porsche owner’s feelings is hilarious 😝 trust me… there isn’t one Porsche owner that didn’t graduate from one ☝🏾 of the lower tier car companies so we check in to see what our younger selves used to drive hoping that you guys have found a way to reduce weight and increase performance
