    Mach 1 Your first test drive in a Mach1

    Where did the heat come from? Good questions, I am not the best at the technicals, but I know what I feel. My experience in n/a mustangs is limited to 4 models: a 1995 GT 5.0 slowboat, a 1998 Cobra with roughly the same horses as the Mach (also a 32 valve double overhead cam), my 2002 modded...

    Mach 1 What people paying for a new '04 Mach1?

    Paid $26K Flat, and still don't regret it I don't know what kind of area you are in, but a lot depends on the mustang mania in your area. North Carolina seems to have a lot of mustangs on the road, and I lived in Fort Worth for a while, there were a ton of stangs in Texas. This may translate...

    Roush Saleen customer service is awsome!!!!!

    Good Service From Saleen? Yow! That is great news!! I have heard some horror stories, maybe things are turning around. I have done ok with Saleen, haven't had any problems with the car, but wanted to know some vitals about N/A so I didn't screw something up. They patched me in to someone...

    Mach 1 Mach Exhaust Improvements

    So what does everybody think about exhaust improvements on the Mach? I listened to a few different set-ups on MustangExhaust.com, but wanted to hear your opinions before I spend the $. I liked the Borla Stinger with Magnaflow catalytic-X, but can't tell if the sound is what I am looking for...

    Mach 1 Buyer's Remorse

    Hang On Stone, good to here it is going better. My family has a zen approach to mustangs: no such thing as a bad one, some have a little more character than others. We buy, we tinker, we have some successes, we screw up, we have fun. The forums have been great to identify tech issues to...

    3.55 gears in the mach1 and 05 mustang

    3.55 on Mach 1 I have had fun with this comparison: My wife has a 2004 Mach 1 with the 3.55 gears. My '02 GT has the 3.27 gears. The difference in the 3.27 to 3.55 is noticable, but not what you might want or expect. (The most noticable difference is that the wife/Mach combination trashes...

    lowering springs

    Steeda Sports! I am also looking to drop an inch or so. I heard Steeda Sports were best combination of ride and handling....don't know from experience. I am looking for the same thing for my wife's 2004 Mach 1. It has Tokico shocks and could use about a 1.5" drop. Do I need to replace...

    Tire Rack sucks

    Tire Rack: Use 'em for the surveys, buy 'em if you know they fit. Yowwwww...I use tire rack for research but a lot of you hit the answer. Different widths and squared shoulders make for a different measurement. Saleen rolls fenders?? Help me out here. I'm in my garage and my 02-382 Saleen...

    Roush Are all Saleens tuned to California emissions?

    I had coveted Saleens for many years until coughing up the bucks 2 years ago for 02-382. I need help with a few basic questions. 1) Are all Saleens tuned to California emissions? 2) If so, is the Saleen muffler, performance exhaust, and x-pipe costing me hp? I can't go with off-road...

    295/35/18 rubber isnt cutting it, what should I upgrade to?

    I have about 500 miles on Goodyear F1 GS-D3s that replaced the stock Pirelli's on my Saleen. The GS-D3s are sweet. Smoother ride, better launch and not as much whiplash in the pavement seams like I was getting off the Pirellis. Best price is from Tire Rack. I had mine ordered through NTB and...
