Re: FYI on exhaust systems
a tune is best described by a read of all information on your specific car. i would recomend one after an instalation of any performence part. it helps that part to perform at its maximum potential

Re: FYI on exhaust systems
Great thread.
I'm buying an 03 with a shifter, brake work and a K&N. Is exhaust the next thing I should do? I'm not looking to build a drag car, just want to boost the performance a bit. Is there a natural progression for the bolt-on mods? |

Re: FYI on exhaust systems
so with ceramic, basically the only difference would be less heat in the engine, but more heat in the exhaust? am i understanding it correctly, or is there more to it such as benefits or downfalls?
thanks |

Re: FYI on exhaust systems
i had a few uestions about mach 1 upgrades to my car. when i was at the Ford Nationals this past june and walked through the Mach 1 registry showfield section and talked to a guy who own a black '03 Mach 1. i cant remember his name but he was very informative. i told him that i have a black '04 Mach 1 and we were talking about the upgrades we did to our cars. one thing he was talking about that caught my interest was exhaust upgrades. i currently have flowmaster exhaust with what i believe to be the factoy h pipe on it, he showed me that he had borla exhaust which sounded amazing. he said they come in three intensity levels. i want the loudest. i cant remember what he said as far as if he had a bassani x pipe or some other manufacturer h pipe installed. what would you recommend as far exhaust upgrades in combination with borla exhaust? i want to achieve that deep powerful throaty intense muscle car soun that is more fitting to the Mach 1.

Re: FYI on exhaust systems
im looking at Borla's exhaust catalog. should i be looking under the 99-04mustang GT section or the 99-04 mustang cobra section. i was under the impression that the cobra and the mach 1 had the same motor. they also offer different options such as Cat-Back system "touring and Cat-Back system "S-type". Im also wondering if i buy the MRT h pipe and the Borla exhaust system will they match up correctly when i have them installed at the show?

Re: FYI on exhaust systems
ok this is a dumb question, im new to this so any guidance and advice would greatly be appreciated. the 03 04 mach 1 and 03 04 cobra are contemporaries and there was even an article comparing the two. the cobra has independent rear suspension. does the mach 1 have independent rear suspension?

Here’s one with an off-road X: https://youtu.be/QHw7p-HeNhs Sounds very similar to a chambered muffler set up, more specifically Flowmasters. Pick your poison. |
