    Mach 1 trans help

    I would definitely go with the transmission that comes with the Mach 1 engine. They build up those things tougher to stand up to the new HP and Torque. The stock GT auto tranny will definitely not hold up to a Mach engine. I found out that it doesn't even stand up to a lightly modified GT, when...

    Mach 1 Borla Catback vs. Borla STINGER Catback

    Ive been looking around the internet at Borla catback systems for my car and on the exhaust section for Mach1s at the RPM outlet they have a page with two different kinds of Borla exhaust. The Borla Stingers and just Borla. The thing is that the Stingers are $100 cheaper than the Borla. What is...

    Mach 1 What kind of mileage does a Mach 1 get ?

    I didn't really calculate it out exactly but when i first got my car in Ohio and drove it back to Texas(long ass trip) I averaged around 25MPG or so on the highway doing around 70MPH the whole way. I was pretty impressed.

    Mach 1 Anyone raced a C5?

    Nice.....thats badass that an old guy was willing to race. Good kill, man. You have alot more stuff done to your car than i do, so it kinda makes me wonder how I would do with me being basically stock. I guess i'll run across one someday.

    Mach 1 Anyone raced a C5?

    I've been wanting to run against a C5 for a long time, but I can't ever seem to find anyone driving a C5 that is willing to race. It always seems to be an old guy in his 40s or 50s driving around real slow that won't even get it over 2000 RPMs . I know someone out that has to have raced a C5...

    Mach 1 04 Mach 1 times

    Yeah, I've been wanting exhaust for a while on my car, and I know exactly what I want but I don't have the money for the full exhaust system. I want a Borla catback system with Bassani catted X and later on BBK headers, but I only have money for the Borla right now and I didn't know if I should...

    Mach 1 04 Mach 1 times

    Ok.....two questions.......what were you launching your car at when you were stock? My best time was 2.118 and I launched right about 2000, maybe a bit more. And my last question, i'm curious as to how your car sounds with the borla catback and stock H-pipe on there. Does it sound really good...

    Mach 1 what are your shift points

    Yeah, I ran that time at the Amarillo Dragway. Thats the only track i've been to so far. Some buddies of mine wanna head down to Dallas this summer and run at the track in Ennis. That would be pretty nice and i'm sure I could probably run a low 13 down there, like you said, with my car like it...

    Mach 1 what are your shift points

    Yeah, the Mach is a really good running car. The only thing i've really lost to are fixed up LS1s and an '04 Cobra that runs 11s. I just ate up a black LS1 Ram Air Trans Am today from a light.....Well if you ever make it up here, just look for me out sometime. I'm the only red Mach here with...

    Mach 1 what are your shift points

    Yes, I was referring to a fairly stock car with the stock 3.55 gears. I don't plan on messing with gears anytime soon, if ever. 3.55s are fine for me, especially since my Mach is my everyday driver.

    Mach 1 what are your shift points

    Well, I think I figured out that I probably need to shift a little bit sooner. Sucks not having a dyno near cause I can't see what kind of power my car is putting to the ground. Oh well, thanks for the input guys.

    Mach 1 what are your shift points

    We all know the Mach has a 6800RPM redline and 7200RPM rev limiter(for the 5-speeds). When I first got my car, I'd wrap it all the way up to a little over seven grand before i'd shift, but it didn't take me long to realize that after 6500 or so there isn't really any more power to be had...

    New Wheels what kind of Weights

    No definitely do not let anyone pound clip weights on.....I work at Discount Tire and the best balance you can do is an Alloy II balance on your wheels. That's what I did on mine. They put tape weights on opposite sides on the inside of your rim. It is a big pain in the ass to do this kind of...

    Need Pics...Anyone with 17X9 Bullitts and 275 tire

    [COLOR=DarkRed][FONT=Verdana] I have 17x9 bullitt rims with 275/40/17 tires all the way around on my Mustang and they fit perfectly. As for the rim color, i'm not sure. I'd say that the colors would match but i've never actually compared replicas to OE rims in real life. I have black bullitt...
