Harrop Engineering Supercharged Mustang GT

When too much excess is never enough

- 

“THIS car ran 10.5sec at about 145mph at Heathcote.” It’s early and my foggy brain can’t quite comprehend what Harrop General Manager Heath Moore has just told me. I asked Moore to quickly run me through the basic specs of Harrop’s supercharged Mustang when he dropped that little factoid. Okay, it was running E85 and drag tyres at the time, but trap speed is a pretty good indicator of ultimate horsepower and I’ve never driven anything this potent.

In contrast to its relatively modest atmo package, Harrop’s supercharged monster has the works. It’s a Mustang burger with the lot; not just a substantial power increase, but also a raft of mechanical and interior upgrades. In Moore’s words: “[It’s] really for the customer who doesn’t have to compromise.”
