    Mach 1 K&N AirCharger Kit for Mach1 Review

    I ordered the C&L kit from tach9 over at Mach1Mustang.org. But I bet you can also get the kit from RPMOutlet. The part number is CNL10699M1P which currently goes for $340. This includes everything you need for an awesome CAI setup. A word of warning, I have never had any trouble with...

    Mach 1 28's vs 31's

    I absolutely love them. In my opinion, there is a lot of truth to the don't fear the gear expression. I would never go back to the stock 3.55's. And I think the gears are the best performance mods available, aside from power adders. They are the best bang for the buck too. They really wake...

    Mach 1 28's vs 31's

    I respect the approach you are taking towards spending your money on upgrades. However, I don't think you're ever going to get a satisfying answer to your question of how much an aftermarket 28 spline axle can handle, simply because there are just too many variables involved when an axle does...

    Mach 1 28's vs 31's

    It's probably true that aftermarket 28 spline axles are sufficient for our stock power levels, but if you're going to do the rear end work yourself, and can afford the extra parts, you might as well make it bulletproof and go for the extra performance while you have everything apart. This way...

    Mach 1 Post Pics of your Mach

    kylew5, your Mach1 looks freakin' awesome. It's too bad your bumper does say "Cobra" instead of "Mustang" or "Mach1" though. Ford should have given us a "Mach1" bumper. What kind of differential are you going with for your rear end rebuild? I highly recommend you go with a clutchless...

    Mach 1 28's vs 31's

    All I can say is that if you plan on serious launching with slicks, you would be very smart to upgrade your axles to 31 spline. And since 31 spline axles are the same diameter as 28 spline axles, the upgrade shouldn't be too painful. You will need a 31 spline differential and possibly new ABS...

    Mach 1 Just built the wood ramps from Mustang University

    I like the idea of having those ramps, instead of taking a chance with the jack and jack stands. I always get nervous when I place the jack stands under the car while it's supported by the jack. I do my best to make sure my torso isn't under the car while putting the jack stands into position...

    Mach 1 K&N AirCharger Kit for Mach1 Review

    Please be advised that I removed my K&N intake a long time ago and replaced it with the C&L unit! In my honest opinion, the C&L unit is far superior, in terms of looks, fit, and performance. Also, the C&L kit offers a bigger MAF housing which uses the stock MAF. Just so no one is mislead...

    Mach 1 what are your shift points

    My car was tuned by Swanson Performance and they used an SCT chip. I think this is perfectly normal for power curves. I think perfectly smooth power curves are just made this way depending on the software that plots all the data points. Since my power curve shows minute variations, I'm...

    Mach 1 what are your shift points

    I see what you mean here, but depending on your power curve you might go out 500 RPM or so beyond your peak power point because you're only making like 10 or 15 less hp. For example, click here and check my power curve out. When I accelerate in my car from a dig, it seems to work out better...

    Mach 1 what are your shift points

    I'm no drag racing expert, but I think I've learned enough to know that you do not shift the instant your engine power begins to decline. If you did this, then you will be way out of power range when you shift into the next gear. I would think that you would want to take the RPM's some...
