I think I might have an unhealthy addiction to the Coyote motor. Strangely enough the first Coyote powered Mustang I drove and reviewed wasn’t a S197 platform car but rather the newer S550 platform.

On the day I reviewed this one that changed. I finally know what my car could have been had the Coyote been around in 2005.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

It feels more mature, way beefier and the potential of bolting on a centrifugal supercharger to extract 600whp is mighty enticing. What is your opinion on the Coyote powered S197's?

Well I have a black ‘14 GT premium so my opinion is very high. The one thing that made a huge difference easily for me was a throttle response device to take away the fly-by-wire rev lag. Oh also the gt500 axle back exhausts are what should have been stock.

I love the look of the quad exhaust on the ‘13 and ‘14 GT500's! Definitely a mod I would look into myself if I had one of those. I have seen them on the first body style but they always look off unless you go ham and buy a rear bumper kit for it.

Aww now I feel like I’m letting you down, but I was referencing these:

I guess they’re really GT500-style. But they are incredible. Just enough to sound like the 5.0 should, but not loud enough to be a disturbance. Single biggest compliment generator.

Since I have a 14 RS3 Mustang, my opinion is that they are very good!

Oh no, not at all! That means you get a nice sound without having to cut into the bumper!
