    rant/vent RPM outlet and Thieves

    I recently bought a catback system from them. The Borla was out of stock and the sales rep I spoke to on the phone was very helpful. I ended up buying the Pypes system and I am extremely happy with it.

    Mach 1 Anybody sell or trade in a Mach lately?

    I am trying to figure what I can realistically get for my Mach1. Wanting to get a new F-150. I see dealers and owners asking pretty steep prices but don't know what they are actually getting. My car has 6,700 miles on it and looks like new in,out and under since it has been kept in dry heated...

    Mach 1 Installed PHP intake spacer.

    Not sure what the da was that day. I can relate to conditions in Texas though. I spent a year at Ft. Bliss when in Army years ago. I ran my 87 GT at El Paso and it was quite a bit slower there as compared to Michigan.

    Mach 1 Installed PHP intake spacer.

    I did make it to Milan Sunday. Only got 2 time trials though. Car was about a tenth quicker and little over 2 mph faster than last time out. But I also added a Steeda cold air kit and catback since last time at track. I was leaving easy on the stock tires to minimize spin (1.94 60 ft.) but I was...

    another exhaust thread

    I recently put the Pypes catback on my Mach1 and LOVE the sound of it. I was going to get Borla Stinger or LM1 and the sales rep. at RPM Outlet suggested Pypes. I am glad I trusted his opinion.

    Mach 1 Diff. Side badges?

    I guess I must be too old to see that logic! Having been a Mustang lover all my life (I'm 46) and having owned 11 Mustangs from a 64 1/2 to my 03 Mach that running horse emblem means "Mustang" to me. I am glad Ford put it on the 03 Mach's as it is a symbol of the great heritage these cars have!

    Mach 1 Installed PHP intake spacer.

    Not sure how many on here have this mod. I had read quite a bit on other sites so was pretty well prepared before I started. Only took about 45 minutes and went well. My approach to reconnecting the egr was to start front bolt first by pulling the egr into place. Started it by hand and ran it...

    4.56 Gears...who has them?

    I have 4.30 gears in my 03 Mach. It is only pulling about 2,800 rpm at 70 mph in 5th if I remember correctly.(Maybe 2,600). I do not put many miles on the car and I make a couple trips to drags each year for the Ford events. I have the stock tires on it and do not have problems roasting the...

    Mach 1 Just installed Pypes catback on my Mach

    Was going to get the Borla Stinger from RPM Outlet but it was on back order and the sales rep. recommended the Pypes setup. He said the quality was great and had a really nice sound. Well I am glad I listened to his suggestion! The system is polished stainless and looks beautiful! Install went...

    Mach 1 '03 tranny noise typical??? should I chance it??

    I had some of the famous tranny issues with my mach after I got it. It would want to grind going into 2nd. in cold weather and 3rd. a little too. It also had the 3rd. gear lockout when driving hard a couple times. I had the dealer do the fix that is out which cured the cold tranny issue. I also...

    Mach 1 I dont know if I should get 4:10s

    I have 4.30s in my Mach and 70 mph is @ 2,500 rpms. For what it's worth I chose the 4.30 gears because I drive the car less than 2,000 miles a year and like to go to the 2 Ford races around here in the summer. With the 4.30 gears and stock tires you are pulling in 4th gear pretty good when you...

    Mach 1 ATTENTION ALL MACH 1 OWNERS!!! I NEED YOUR KNOWLEGE!

    I ran a 13.53 at Norwalk in July. That was with a 4.30 gear and a tune from Paul Svinicki. (1.94 60 ft.) With a little seat time and cooler weather I think 2-3 tenths quicker would be possible on the original tires. A 12 sec. e.t. would be pretty tough to obtain in a truly "stock" (untouched in...

    Mach 1 Exhaust opinions

    I am in the same boat. I want something louder in a cat back. I heard a loudmouth with offroad h-pipe and it sounded almost stock. I am thinking of either borla stinger or flowmaster. My car is stock except for 4.30s and SCT by Paul's.

    Mach 1 Just bought an 04' mach 1

    Prices going up lately? I have an 03 Azure Blue with only 4,600 miles and never driven in snow or rain. I am not selling it though. I love the car and want to keep it till they put me in a nursing home!

    Mach 1 T-3650 issues?

    I had the tsb done on mine. It is better from 1 to 2 now but still will act up when trying to hit third under hard acceleration. It will just feel like hitting something solid. I will try a shifter but wonder how much that will help. I had an 02 GT with the same trans and never had a problem.

    Mach 1 Completly stock...

    Mine is untouched. 3,900 miles and waiting out the winter! I do plan on gears and a chip in the spring. But will not make any noticeable changes. Just want to enjoy this car with cruises and an occasional Fun Ford Weekend!
