Fuel Economy…Performance – Why can’t I have both? Rest assured – Steeda Listens and now you can have both!
Many people that we have talked to recently have been complaining about the high cost of fuel these days – and everyone at Steeda has been feeling the same “pinch at the pump” as the next guy. The Steeda Engineering Team recently turned their creative resources towards addressing this concern and has come up with a viable solution that makes sense in this in these periods of high fuel costs we all are experiencing . Our new Fuel Economy Paks for the Mustang GT are the perfect combination for the individual that wants both performance and increased fuel economy at their choosing. Extensive in-house testing has shown these packages to be a great fuel saving combination. Our test vehicles gained between 2.5 to 4.5 miles per gallon depending on speed and driving conditions we subjected them to when compared to a stock Mustang GT.
Our secrets? Our fuel economy packages contain Steeda’s long proven underdrive pulley system along, our new Petron Plus Formula 7 friction reducer, and our Industry Leading Cold Air Intake. The combination of friction reduction, rotating mass reduction, accessory load reduction, and improved airflow has proved to be very effective at increasing one’s gas mileage. Not to mention also increasing your available horsepower and torque.
Steeda Underdrive Pulleys
We are the industry leader in underdrive pulley design for the Ford 4.6L engine and the first aftermarket company to achieve full SFI approval of our designs. Our underdrive pulleys are the only pulleys engineered through our unique partnership in Ford Motor Company’s Technology Transfer Program to have the proper torsional vibration dampening characteristics for your 4.6L engine. No other manufacturer can make this claim!
Don’t be fooled by other manufacturer’s and their “state of the art” process claims…Only Steeda uses the latest technology directly from O.E. sources to manufacture our pulleys under strict ISO/TS16949, QS-9000 & ISO 9001 standards. Our crank pulley is a one-piece nodular iron, injection molded rubber design. Not a cheap “piggyback” design like many of our competitors use. Special rubber materials were chosen for their ability to absorb the torsional vibrations and their ability to withstand extreme underhood temperatures and stresses. Specifically engineered to slow down accessory speed by about 25% – the result is a great reduction of parasitic accessory drag on the engine.
Petron Plus Formula 7 Friction Reducer
Steeda’s Petron Plus Formula 7 protects by impregnating metal at contact and wear points to tremendously reduce friction and wear at those points. The products perform well at any temperature, but work best at higher temperatures generated by machinery operation or friction. The penetrating formula does not easily burn, wash, or wear away. Extensive testing have shown that Petron Plus Formula 7 Friction reducer exceeds the performance of all competitors and significantly enhances performance characteristics of high-quality base motor oils and gear oils.
When used as directed, Steeda’s Petron Plus Formula 7 Friction Reducer helps to
- Helps to decrease energy or fuel required for normal engine operation
- Helps to increase horsepower and performance output, even under high load, high performance demands
- Helps to decrease operating temperatures
- Helps to keep lubricant contamination in suspension, thereby increasing lubricant life
- Helps increase the ability of base lubricants to prevent rust and corrosion, resist oxidation
- Helps to increase overall efficiency
Steeda Cold Air Intakes
The theory behind performance Cold Air Intakes is to let your engine breathe better by allowing for a less restrictive flow of cooler air into your engine – thereby improving your engine’s overall performance level. But what most people do not realize is that while fundamentality most Cold Air Intakes may all look somewhat alike, in practicality there are HUGE DIFFERENCES in their actual on-car performance capabilities at different engine speeds. Rest assured that all Steeda Cold Air Intakes are extensively engineered with the latest computer simulation systems, and then exhaustively tested in real world high performance conditions on the dyno, street, racetrack, and dragstrip to be the best you can buy for your Ford performance vehicle.
When your engine breathes easier, the result is an increase in not only performance, but also less drag on your engine to flow air into its combustion chambers. Less restriction + less drag = increased efficiency and increased fuel economy!
You can purchase the Steeda’s Fuel Economy Paks in the following levels
Level 1 – Purchase the Steeda Petron Plus Friction Reducer and reduce your engines internal friction
Level 2 – Add an underdrive pulley system to your car’s engine and greatly reduce parasitic accessory drag
Level 3 – Top it off with the best Cold Air Intake and greatly improve your engines ability to breathe
