S650 DARK HORSE Mustang ON THE DYNO!!!! | Six-Speed Manual Dyno Results!

The S650 Mustang GT is a HOT topic with the Ford enthusiast community wondering what this new version is all about! We were lucky enough to dyno a stock Dark Horse, the most powerful S650 currently available, for our friends at ‪@tripleseven.‬! This Vapor Blue Darkhorse is equipped with a Tremec Six-Speed manual and well over the break in period with over 1000 miles! We've seen lots of Dark Horse dyno numbers with the 10-speed auto, but nothing from a stick shift car. This car is rated at 500 horsepower...will the dyno number match?

This shows the difference between atmospheric conditions, cars and dynos. The RevanEvan channel got 438 in stock form with 93 octane and doing the pull in fourth gear. With the carbon trap removed and filters it made 455, with a fourth gear pull. Torque also jumped up on the last pull to 383 ft pounds. The car they tested only had 26 miles on it.

I’m not hating on it but 3rd gen coyotes made 420 hp stock also. The fact the new gen is putting out similar numbers as the last gen leaves much to desire and when you factor in the price, and added weight as well as lack of tuning, I think that’s where people are starting to stray away from it.

The only reason people are calling it a dud is because the performance does not justify the price. Not only does the car weigh more but it only makes 20 horsepower over the previous generation to the wheels. Save your money and buy an s550 or a Mach 1. Dealerships are charging 10k over msrp on a 70k car. At that point you could buy a c8 corvette Shelby gt500 or gt350, or even a hellcat. Or supercharge a s550. Heck even a tuned s550 stock would smoke This car.

[@mooosestang]

something whistling after you took the carbon traps out. Middleton motorsports got more power by leaving the airbox lids off than removing the traps. They hit 450hp with no traps and no lids, but it was cooler than 92 i think. They also dynoed in 5th and somehow took it to 7200rpms.

Once I saw the pricing of the recent GT500, I wasn't excited about that either, especially after seeing the interior.

Looking at the numbers on this new mustang. You think they just put the aluminator crate engine in this car. If they did its low numbers but it's built to take more power from superchargers and stuff for the tuners. If so that's not bad being Ford and other car manufacturers had so many recalls.

[@optimumperformance6998]

@Ken individual plenums would not work on a cross plane crank engine. They work on flat plane crank engines due to the equal firing pulses. You need the cross cross bank pulses in the plenum to feed to double bank firing with a cross plane engine. I would have liked to see timing and fuel correction before and after the CT removal, I feel that the gains being realized are simply corrections being made due to the PCM seeing something it does not expect and switching strategies. Flowing these intake assemblies on a bench and reading the curves to calculate actual air mass flow would be the best way to determine and calculate the gain. Running on a dyno with the lids off and the hood open...yeah garbage data. Ford effectively doubled the airflow of the S550 air inlet and the engine grew by what 5CID? Funny how IMSA Mustangs easily make 500+ with the stock GT airbox. Packing smaller molecules in will always burn more fuel. Im also curious if the port fueling strategy has changed. Thats only really there to give more time for mixture motion at high rpm. The drawback of DI, not much time to make a happy flame front at high rpm.

@Jaruzelsk lol so far the track is saying that the dyno's aren't lying. Glad your butt dyno says different though. I'll wait until these things can actually be tuned to change my opinion. Regardless of what your butt dyno says, we are seeing what they can do stock

[@Jaruzelsk]

@@allthevibes46 Lol even if it does change you’re cheap ass won’t pay for the new product. Like I said ,you haven’t DRIVEN the NEW GT ,all you’re doing is watching videos and believing whatever lol.

Alejandro flores is right its a dhhhuud but hey you asked them and they told ya if they could go back they would have bought a mach 1. And you complained about pretty much everything about this car 😢 that only confirms that its a dhuuuuud PERIOD

“Felt like a brand new car” 😂

A drive after a hard reset should have been a no brainer

[@Diddy_Do_It2037]

The brand new car felt like a brand new car? Wow

[@potranco999]

Well, not overly excited. First of all, I commend Ford for continuing to offer a v8 sports car, with a manual. Kinda disappointing that Ford hasn’t made significant changes to the performance. Design wise… not thrilled with the front, the rear is nice. Interior… sorry, I don’t like the big screens.. I know it’s what newer cars are coming with now, but not a fan of them on sports cars, especially big iPad looking things. I have a ‘19 GT350 that I’ve owned for almost 3 years now… engine is bone stock. I still enjoy the design/look, feel, sound and performance. I don’t see myself trading for a S650… especially for the price. Like others have said, for $75k territory, it makes sense to explore a nice C8.

[@stephencarbajal5657]

If reference CJ pony and American muscle they both did dyno pulls with a 2018 GT with manual transmission and they both put down 420-422hp. Two different cars two different dynos. 2018 crank hp is 460 im not sure about the dark horse being impressive.

[@zachaca]

Did ford ever give one away for the naming? I submitted the name dark horse but I'm sure a million ppl did

[@QuickF90]

this car is a complete joke. my gen3 10 speed (2018) made 420 stock on a dynojet, on 91 octane, in 95 degree heat, and ran 11.9@119 bone stock

[@FordSVT1313]

Yeah, I’m sticking with my 03 Cobra lol.

[@joetaylor5113]

So it makes the same power as all the other 6th gen ss Camaros cool.

HP maybe, how about TQ... same as Gen V LT1?

[@stevehrocks]

Did you put the air straighteners back in?

[@colinmeeks1054]

Hard to justify the price tag

[@StormÆLnGoFth]

Whattttt the noises that thing makes

[@seanc6754]

You know i was in high school when the first LS1 Camaros came out and 4.6L mustangs with there 280hp were all over the place and it took thousands of dollars to get a car to make 400 hp to the ground and now they are coming stock with over that and people wanna complain?.. they just dont realize how badass cars are these days. Plus all everyone does is complain anyway. Now the price tag is absolutely ridiculous but that is going to change soon too.. these dealerships have screwed themselves and this isnt covid anymore and people arent going to pay these absurd prices and banks arent rly giving loans out on these over priced cars

[@streetcarmedia660]

Buy a low buck gen 1 do simple mods and you will have the same results. You guys know this.

Well imma keep my 99 gt and my 2013 5.0 mustang darkhorse aint pushing out like that

[@crewdawg16]

15% drivetrain loss through a manual you say?

[@brucewiegand3939]

Dual plenum would be sweet 👍

[@RW-zh7kl]

Well the hp is almost right at the factory rating, but torque is higher soo that def helps. But overall underwhelming for a really expensive Mustang.

[@mikemontgomery8892]

Dual plenum billet intake? ... yes please

[@slowboybk5098]

mind you not they dyno a bone stock 19 gt350 it made 463whp yall better off buying a 2020 gt350

[@cormaro13]

So I can have the engine replace several times nah I'm good 😂

[@cmdrdredd]

@@cormaro13that’s a myth from people who don’t do maintenance and don’t check their oil and go beat the car up on the track going to redline with no warming up and no oil catch can so it sucks in blow by like crazy and then blame ford. I saw a post where a guy brought his car in for noises and they found no oil on the dipstick. That’s a bad owner not a bad car. I own a 350 and it’s as reliable as my GT was.

Nobody wants a heavy @$$ GT that you can't tune!! POWER TO WEIGHT!! Thanks Ford... you gave us a 500 CRANK hp car, added over 100lbs to the car probably close to 200, and made it un-tuneable!! You clearly don't know the people who buy your cars!!

These newer Mustangs looks so similar to the Gen6 Camaro except the sound which sounds so good on the stang.

[@cmdrdredd]

Except the gen6 Camaro was designed after the s550 and the s650 iterates on the s550. So what you really wanna say but you are just a troll on the internet, is GM copied Ford.

Imagine paying $70-80K for a car that performs worse than the previous generation. The 2018+ GT manual made 420-440 on the dyno.

You're either a troll or just grossly misinformed. That's not even close to true

[@ShawnGilbert1967]

Which part Ken? Are you saying the S650 bone stock is quicker and traps faster than a 2018? Or that no manuals gen 3s were doing 420whp? I seem to recall some and around 408ish or so A10?
