Airaid didn’t just have their awesome carbon fiber 2012 BOSS 302 intake on display, but one of the 15 available Parnelli Jones Edition intakes. Numbered and signed by Parnelli Jones himself, the 15 intake systems will be auctioned off, with all the proceeds to be donated to Page Jones’ (Parnelli’s son) charity to benefit those who have been affected by traumatic brain injuries, such those suffered by Page himself.

Capitalizing on the BOSS 302′s quad-exhaust feature, Quick Time Performance was quick to design a bolt-on electronic exhaust bypass to mate up to the OEM flanges. QTP also incorporated wireless technology which allows cutout activation from a key fob.

When we stopped by Wilwood and asked them what they had new, they showed us this. While it looks like a standard rotor, it is actually a new alloy that should increase rotor life significantly, combined with some design changes to increase rotor cooling. They will be utilizing the new “Spec 37″ rotors across their high-performance and racing lines.


As you can see, there is a chance the 2012 Cobra Jet might have a Coyote-based powerplant instead of the venerable. 5.4L 4-valve. With the Dec. 1st release date, it’s safe to say it will be all the buzz at PRI.

American Racing Headers longtubes for the 2011 Mustang GT are made from American 304 stainless and feature 1-7/8-inch primaries feeding into a 3-inch collector. They are claiming a 26-30 horsepower gain before any ECU tuning, and will be original equipment on the 2012 Cobra Jet.

When we stopped by Race Star Industries’ booth, the first thing we noticed was the new finish on both their Drag-Star and Super Star wheels. Dubbed “Dark Star,” it is actually more than just a new color. Using a particle vapor disposition process, the new coating provides a unique color along with an extremely durable finish with no electrolysis involved.

Designed for hardcore high-performance applications, the new Pro HD aluminum case from Strange is available in three bore sizes and features an oil-scavenging channel to ensure pinion-bearing lubrication in addition to a pinion support drain hole for overall increased oil circulation.

Not only does the sinister black coating now being offered by AFCO on all of their radiators and heat-exchangers look good, but it actually improves cooling efficiency by chemically bonding with the aluminum and providing increased surface area.

Exedy Racing Clutch has their twin-disc clutch for the 2011 Mustang GT on display. Capable of holding over 800 foot-pounds of torque, it should be able to handle anything a Coyote can throw at it.

Looking for something even better than the billet aluminum compressor wheels which have been all the rage, Turbonetics has developed a new max-effort compressor wheel dubbed the HPR made from billet titanium. While Ti is a touch heavier than a equivalent billet aluminum wheel, titanium’s properties in high-boost situations exceed those of aluminum by a large margin.
