| 2010 Steeda Q550 Streetfighter |
Steeda Autosports chose the 2009 LA Auto Show as the forum for the world debut of an all new ultimate street performance vehicle, the 2010 Steeda Q550 Streetfighter Edition. Destined to reign supreme in the pony wars, this high performance muscle machine is part of their continuous evolution of building some of the best performing Mustangs available. Conceived as the ideal Mustang that can be comfortably driven daily, it has all the necessary equipment to be a weekend warrior on the racetrack/drag-strip without worry.
Equipped with the most extensive amount of standard suspension upgrades ever included on one of their production vehicles, including our Watt's Link Suspension system, this performance Mustang can easily pull 1.2gs on the skidpad. With the broad range of brutal power it has on demand, it can rip off 0-60 times that are less than 4 seconds with quarter mile times comfortably in the 11 second range. According to Steeda, "There is simply no other serialized Mustang available today that offers the performance, styling, and performance attitude that this Mustang has".
"The Steeda Q550 Streetfighter achieves its massive power output from the Ford Racing/Whipple Supercharger assembly. We selected the Ford Racing/Whipple supercharger application because it provides its power reliably over a broad rpm range on 93 octane fuel and is fully 50 state emission legal", commented Dario Orlando, President of Steeda Autosports. "Delivering smooth power throughout the power curve is what this power package provides and it is a perfect power source for the Steeda Q550 Streetfighter Edition. When mated with our unique performance pulley system and our other engine performance enhancements, this package really delivers the mail!
Jamie Allison, Ford Racing Performance Group Manager said "Dario Orlando and the entire team at Steeda Autosports have been a longtime and valued partner of Ford Racing and have many aftermarket offerings to choose from. We are excited and proud that they chose the Ford Racing FR550 supercharger (which produces 550 horsepower) to power their new Q550 Streetfighter Edition". The Q55 also features a custom engine calibration and Steeda's belt drive kit.
Engine power is just part of the success story about the Q550 Streetfighter. While the exterior shares the same aerodynamic body modifications of the Q350 with the unique Steeda front fascia with openings for front brake duct cooling. Additional exterior enhancements include a Steeda rear spoiler tuned for maximum down force with the least amount of aerodynamic drag, and a unique vented hood.
"The real beauty of this performance monster lies underneath the vehicle. That is where we deployed every performance handling trick we have in our arsenal" commented Steve Chichisola, Master Technician at Steeda Autosports. "We have integrated the knowledgebase we acquired over the last 21 continuous years of building high performance Mustangs, more than any other Mustang aftermarket modifier, all into one fully cohesive package where all the parts are perfectly tuned to work in harmony towards delivering maximum suspension performance." The suspension modifications include Tokico D-Spec shocks and struts, Watt's Link, and billet lower trailing arms. To bring things to a crawl after a run down the 1320 Steeda included special 6 piston (front and rear) Baer brakes.
The interior is yet another area where this vehicle speaks performance. Inside you will find it's interior to be very sleek, athletic, and totally ready for aggressive driving. The Streetfighter's interior features many additions including Safecraft 6 point safety harnesses, a thick, Alcantara wrapped steering wheel, and body hugging, leather covered, carbon fiber backed Steeda Sport Seats.
The Steeda Q550 Streetfighter Edition will be available in the 1st quarter of 2010 from select Steeda Autosports authorized dealers. Look for additional updates in the near future regarding pricing and availability of this limited edition performance vehicle.
