Whats up everyone. I am currently looking into getting a 2003 Mach1. Although I have some q's. I know most people like to keep them stock, which I will for the most part, but what kind of mads can be done? ie: programmer,gears etc... Besides the obvious exhaust. Thanks in advance.
 
Anything you can imagine. Gears, exhaust, suspension, supercharger, twin turbo, cams, several choices in handheld tuning, body kits .. anything you can think of. The aftermarket for Mustangs is awesome (if not the best) of any domestic vehicle I've ever owned.

Actually it seems like most people don't keep them stock. Gears (4.10 or possibly even 4.30), CAI or drop-in K&N filter, and most definately a short-throw shifter if you are getting a 5-speed. It will likely run lean if you change the exhaust and install a CAI, so a programmer is in order (useful anyway for setting the speedometer following a gear change).
 
The reason I ask is that everywhere I look for my current car parts (03 GT 5spd) which I am trading for the mach, they always state for 99-04 gt 2v or cobra. I know the mach has 4v like the cobra but lets say for example i wanted a new intake plenum and throttle body. would i go for the 01 cobra model cause I am under the impression that the car has the same motor as the 01 cobra. I am planning and LT's,hooked up to high flow x with flows and gears. what tuner would be recommended?
 
When your buying stuff for the Mach 1, it will either be Mach 1 specific, or be bunched in with the GT. So far, I have'nt seen anything where they mix the Cobra and Mach 1 together. I've got the Predator tuner, but if I was to buy a tuner now, I'd get the SCT 2 Excalibur I think it's called. You can get tunes downloaded from your computer with the use of a USB cable for each mod you do to your car, then just put the program in your Mustang's computer. That's what I've heard anyway.
