Available in a variety of housings and colors, including powder-coated cast aluminum, polished billet, and anodized billet, the Vertex Z6 CD ignition box from Taylor Cable Products is a study in performance, looks, and reliability. Its rotary dial rev limiter is adjustable in 100-rpm increments (2,000–9,900 rpm), and it boasts a sealed cover to keep out water and debris.

Use This Post Clip for Email

The 451-356 AIRAID MXP performance air intake system delivers horsepower and acceleration gains (+16.5 HP on the dyno) for the 2019 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L. The roto-molded replacement air box addresses all the shortcomings of the restrictive factory design, with a premium AIRAID air filter for outstanding air flow and filtration.

This easy-to-install system directs air through a precision computer-modeled air intake tube constructed of cross-linked, high-density polyethylene designed to maintain proper mass air flow readings and calibration. An integrated velocity stack further promotes airflow.

Together, these features create a potent increase in airflow while maintaining proper air-to-fuel ratios (no recalibration needed after installation—just bolt it on and go!). Backed by AIRAID’s No Hassle Lifetime Warranty.

Note: Not legal for sale or use in California.

Features

  • Superior horsepower and acceleration gains
  • Replaces stock intake tubing, air filter, and air box (where applicable).
  • Easy to install using commonly available tools
  • Easy-to-clean, oil-free synthetic air filter
  • Washable and reusable air filter media
  • Installation: 90 minutes with basic tools
  • Warranty: No Hassle Lifetime

Specifically designed for the requirements of very-high-compression boosted or nitrous engines, Ultra Race Fuel Concentrate from Race Gas will generate a racing fuel with an octane rating of 108–112 r+m/2 when mixed with pump gasoline. The formula won the prestigious 2019 PRI Global Media Award, which recognizes outstanding consumer appeal.

Differing from the original Race Gas formulation, Ultra achieves high octane while still meeting the company’s requirements of high chemical energy and oxygen—which is ideal for high-compression engines vs. lower-compression engines or those with lower boost. Ultra-fortified pump gas consistently and repeatably creates the same horsepower and torque as commercial racing fuel under a variety of conditions.

Features

  • For very-high-compression boosted or nitrous engines
  • Produces racing fuel with an octane rating of 108–112 r+m/2 when mixed with pump gasoline.
  • Consistently and repeatably creates the same horsepower and torque as commercial racing fuel under a variety of conditions.
  • Winner of the 2019 PRI Global Media Award
