New 788 bhp supercharged Mustang Dark Horse

London-based high-performance vehicle specialist, Clive Sutton, has launched the ‘CS800DH Mustang’ a 788 bhp version of the Ford Mustang Dark Horse. Featuring enhancements to the performance, handling, aerodynamics, plus the exterior and interior appearance, the new model is one of the most powerful and comprehensively enhanced new Mustangs available in the UK.

The Clive Sutton team fit a Ford Performance 3.0L Whipple Supercharger to achieve a 76 percent increase in power output of the five-litre V8 engine, which grows from 447 bhp (453 PS) to 788 bhp (799 PS) at 6,700 rpm alongside 61 percent higher torque – 642 lb-ft at 4,750 rpm. The CS800 DH also features all-new bespoke carbon fibre enhancements including a 1,580 mm-wide raised rear wing, larger diffuser, distinctive double-sided bonnet, front splitter, and side skirts.

Boosting style, performance, and driving experience further, the Sutton team pair new Vossen wheels clad in Michelin Pilot 4S tires with lowered and stiffened suspension, and a Borla ATAK quad-tip exhaust system with custom H-pipe. Inside the cabin, driver engagement is enhanced with the addition of a MGW short-throw racing shifter. The team also installs adjustable racing Recaro sports seats with full heating and cooling functionality.

Crucially, all the enhancements are made in line with the Ford Performance specifications and guidelines, meaning that the full three-year / 36,000-mile Ford Warranty remains in place, with the Sutton team adding their own three-year / 36,000-mile warranty  to cover all their modifications. Additionally, all performance enhancements to the engine, exhaust, and suspension maintain full functionality with all factory drive modes and settings.

Sutton’s team also transform the interior, offering customers the option to reupholster the entire car from headlining, seats and dash to door cards and steering wheel. Amplifying the bespoke finish, customers can opt for a broad spectrum of leather and Alcantara colours, in addition to swapping out the standard seats for racing Recaro seats. Where the base car has heating and cooling fitted, the Recaro seats pair seamlessly with the technology guaranteeing all-season comfort alongside high-performance support.

The CS800DH Mustang by Clive Sutton is priced from £135,000-£165,000 and includes both a Ford Performance and Clive Sutton comprehensive three-year warranty on the vehicle and its enhancements. The new model will make its public debut at Salon Privé (Blenheim Palace, 27-31 August) alongside a new build ‘67 Mustang GT500CS, Sutton’s VIP Mercedes-Benz V-Class,  and the latest 2025 Cadillac Escalade.
