A global platform with V8 power and independent rear suspension means the 2015 Ford Mustang can compete with expensive European sports cars

By replacing restrictive factory components AEM is able to increase horsepower, torque and acceleration of 2015 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L V8 models

The sixth generation 2015 Ford Mustang has broken the mold of what consumers expect from Ford’s classic Pony Car. The sixth generation 2015 Mustang has been designed on a global platform intended for world-wide export as left or right hand drive and 2015 Ford Mustang models feature a fully independent rear suspension. This new independent rear suspension brings Mustang handling, and road manners, up to par with the far more expensive cars it must compete against throughout Europe. Also, for the first time in nearly thirty years, Ford is offering a turbocharged inline-four cylinder engine in the Mustang. Luckily the 5.0L V8 Coyote motor still remains as the 2015 Ford Mustang GT’s go to power plant. The 2015 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L boasts an incredible 435 peak horsepower, yet 2015 Ford Mustang owners are able to easily increase the 5.0 V8 engine’s performance with an AEM air intake system.

Most often, the factory air intake tubing, stock air filter box, and disposable air filter is a significant point of restriction in modern fuel injected cars or trucks. The 2015 Ford Mustang 5.0L isn’t immune to this restriction in factory trim, so AEM has developed an air intake system that eliminates the restrictive factory intake tube, sound baffling, and air filter box. By replacing restrictive factory components with a charcoal gray powder coated mandrel bent aluminum air intake tube coupled to an open element AEM Dryflow synthetic air filter and protected by an application specific air filter heat shield, AEM is able to increase horsepower, torque and acceleration of 2015 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L V8 models.

Installation of the 2015 Ford Mustang air intake can be easily completed using basic hand tools and by following the included step by step directions

An oval tapered Dryflow synthetic air filter was developed to maximize airflow for the 2015 Ford Mustang intake

The 2015 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L AEM air intake system is designed to deliver as much unrestricted air as the engine can use quickly and with the fewest bends possible. An AEM Dryflow air filter’s pleated design, along with the mandrel-bent aluminum intake tube’s smooth inner surface, helps to reduce turbulent airflow to promote more efficient combustion and increased power. The increase in airflow and reduced restriction of the AEM 2015 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L air intake is combined with an application specific powder coated heat shield which seals against the car’s hood to help blocks hot air rising off the exhaust manifold from entering the air filter. Cool, dense, air also aids in enhanced performance through improved combustion.

In-house dyno testing shows that AEM air intake system 21-745C improves horsepower and torque output of the 2015 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L across the entire RPM range. The meat of the RPM range commonly used for any type of acceleration or passing, between 4,000 and 6,000 RPM, is where the AEM 2015 Ford Mustang 5.0L air intake really shines. Peak estimated horsepower and torque gains came on at 4,500 RPM when installed on an otherwise stock 2015 Ford Mustang 5.0. At 4,500 RPM the AEM air intake 21-745C was shown to provide an estimated additional 12 horsepower and 14 lb-ft of torque at the rear wheels. This is an even more impressive number when you consider that power losses incurred through the drivetrain yielded just 310 of the 435 stock ponies making it to the wheels.

The AEM 2015 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L air intake is designed to fit like a factory part and last a lifetime

Owners of 2015 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L models need not worry that increasing performance with an AEM air intake system will put their car at risk.

The AEM cold air intake tube for 2008-2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger models is available in charcoal gray powder coat or a bright mirror-like finish

AEM cold air intake systems trace their roots back to 1994 when AEM began selling its first packaged cold air intake system for the Honda Civic CRX ensuring AEM’s success in the import tuner market from the very beginning. Over the course of more than 20 years AEM has worked to understand both the practical and theoretical side of engine performance by combining street experience with technical savvy. During this same time most auto manufacturers had shifted toward front wheel drive cars with very few V8 engine options. Thus an AEM cold air intake became the performance upgrade that many import car enthusiasts sought out first.

AEM offers a 50-state street legal cold air intake system shown to produce an estimated 24 additional horsepower on an otherwise stock 2009 Dodge Challenger 6.1L HEMI V8

In 2005 Dodge made a bold, but successful move, when its engineers used many Mercedes-Benz components to create the LX platform based Dodge Charger and Dodge Challenger. Fortunately, the principles behind increased performance apply to modern V8 Mopar muscle cars just the same way it applies to smaller import cars. The biggest difference between engineering an AEM cold air intake for a Dodge Hemi and a Honda VTEC is that there is huge potential for even larger power gains from a V8 engine. AEM Induction Systems engineers design cold air intake systems as a fully integrated component of the vehicle. More airflow is only part of the power equation. Reducing air intake tract restriction, turbulence, and reducing inlet air temperature allows an AEM CAI to increase power for better acceleration.
