Ford performance parts available in Australian Ford dealers

never said I was ordering an ecoboost

If you think the ecoboosts lack power, then you haven't driven one. Also many people are doing engine mods on ecoboosts.

Oh what car did you order?

The ecoboost doesn't interest me, a muscle car needs a muscle car engine in my opinion.

mine is not till september/oct 2016, couldnt order until i knew my finances were secure. Since having the ecoboost for 10 weeks, I havent wanted anything else more than this car.

Figured he ordered an ecoboost after having one for 10 weeks and not wanting anything else. Guess not.

It would be nice to see competitive pricing from local distributors so we didn't have to order from the US. Surely if they can get a good supply deal and bulk shipping the cost should be lower than 1 person could import? Sadly it doesn't seem to be the case at this stage.

Even with the bad exchange rates, it's still way cheaper to source it ourselves from overseas. Even after I paid the duties/taxes/postage via FedEx, way cheaper.

You would think that buying in bulk, as you said, would mean better deals for us. But it seems dealing directly with US performance parts shops saves more coin.

Props to Lethal Performance for such great service, and after sales. 4-5 day delivery via FedEx.

Haha... sorry buddy. Wasn't trying to stop any customers from buying from you guys. I'll wish you guys the best in sales etc.

All in all, at least someone is doing stuff locally, better than no one at all

Ford Oz to sell 500kW Mustangs

http://www.motoring.com.au/news/2015/sports/ford/mustang/ford-oz-to-sell-500kw-mustangs-100071

Appeared on motoring.com.au today, anyone know any more?

"Roush Performance kits for Mustang and Mountune-fettled ST hot hatches to be available via Australian Ford dealers
Ford Australia and its dealers are preparing to offer officially-sanctioned aftermarket performance kits for its Fiesta and Focus ST hot hatches and the upcoming Mustang, in which they will deliver up to 500kW.

As we reported in May, a range of Ford Performance Racing parts – including a mega-output Roush Stage 3 supercharger kit revealed under the bonnet of the King Cobra concept at last year's SEMA aftermarket show in the US – will be available here for new Mustang, which arrives in December.

As we revealed then, Roush's HSV GTS-killing Stage 3 kit for the Mustang GT will be available for as little as $12,000-$15,000 from Australia's official Ford Performance Racing distributor, Herrod Motorsport, who is also an official Roush Performance agent.

Herrod Motorsport will also offer Mountune performance kits for the Fiesta ST and Focus ST, in which power increases from 184kW/345Nm to 202kW/400Nm courtesy of a larger alloy intercooler, high-flow air-filter and new ECU mapping.

The Roush kits are available through all US Ford Performance dealers and the Mountune kits are offered via European Ford dealers – both with a full factory warranty.

The same situation now appears certain for Australia, where Ford is believed to be on the verge of announcing the availability of all three performance packages through its official dealer network."

Apparently the decision hasn't yet been finalized, but is expected some time in the future.

They've been working on Mountune for 3 years just to give you an insight into how slowly the wheels turn there, so don't set your expectations too high on the stuff being available immediately as soon as you take delivery of your Mustang.

Happy to be wrong, but myself and a bunch of others were continuously in touch about Mountune for the Euro Fords and for the past 3 years the answer from them has been 'we are unable to confirm at this time.'

If you haven't yet spoken to your dealers, do so now. My dealer got an email last week announcing the Roush upgrades for the Fastback.

Which dealer ? Dealer fitted or third party workshop?

Do you have any more details on this quick duck?

 

[Aussie MustangGT]

My dealer principal is going to email me a pile of information about such things as a complete body dress up kit (about $4000 odd dollars), the Roush supercharger kit, etc.
I should have it by tomorrow. (Hopefully!!)
Ian.

sorry I never got anything about it, not going down the Roush trip, I was talking to a different sales person so we didn't go into huge details.
