Mustang Mach 1 vs GT

**1sty** · 09-21-2003, 05:27 PM

What makes a Mach 1 mustang more powerful then the GT?

tonkabui · 09-21-2003, 05:34 PM

the mach 1 uses a DOHC version of the 4.6L engine and has higher compression than the standard GT. it also requires premium fuel as compared to regular 87 octane for the GT. the GT comes in at a measely 265 horsepower whereas the mach1 comes in at 305 horsepower. isn't the cobra something like 395 horsepower?

**1sty** · 09-21-2003, 05:41 PM

Yeah, the new cobra is way the hell up there.

Midnight22 · 09-21-2003, 05:43 PM

the mach 1 also has the shaker hood scoop, which is a ram air type of thing, not sure, but same principle, so it has 2 ways for air to get in, it also has the suspension of the cobra, the mach 5?? audio system, some name 4got tho, has 1000 watts, itz basically a cobra with out the gas guzzler tax and the supercharger

tonkabui · 09-21-2003, 05:46 PM

it's also supercharged. i don't get it... mercedes always uses superchargers. their new super car, the slr uses a supercharger. the mustang uses a supercharger. why can't more people make a supercharger for us? if they can put it in a mercedes 2.3L four banger, they can put on in for our car. our engine's been around longer anyway. that sucks. damnit... now even the friggin matrix gets a supercharger. man, i hate mazda. well, actually, i hate ford for being such a big part of mazda. no more mazdas for me. just kidding. wait, what was the point of this post? eh, i don't remember anymore.

edit: i'm talking about the cobra having a supercharger.

Midnight22 · 09-21-2003, 05:48 PM

mach 1 dosnt have a supercharger cuz then it would be a cobra, and the orginial mach 1 didnt have a supercharger, the ford team wanted to make the mach 1 again, so thats y the shaker hood was added, but no supercharger...

tonkabui · 09-21-2003, 05:49 PM

sorry, i was referring to the cobra when i started my pointless rant.

Midnight22 · 09-21-2003, 05:50 PM

ooo, ok, my bad

ZiO · 09-21-2003, 06:41 PM

Man i want a Cobra now.... think that will be next for me in a couple years... then I will raceyou MSP bastards... and run you into the dividing wall since all you ever say is "yeah, but in the twisties....'..

before my mazda i owned a 97 Firebird and a saleen S281 pulled up to me on the right side on a street where the lane ended in so many amount of feet. i hate when people do this just to get in front of u so i wasn't going to let him in front of me. when the light turnd green slamed the gas and shot out in front of him. then when he found out that i was racing him he too floored it and i didnt have a damn chance in hell of beating him. i was going as fast as possibly could, he then lets of the accelarator for a split second just to look over at me then he handed me my ass. man that car was fast, and thats olny the S281 what about the S351

Does this Help, LOL Http://www.car-videos.com/peformance...id1=226&id2=83 also look how the Mach1 get's destroyed by the NSX-T in the 1/4mile and definately topspeed http://www.car-videos.com/performanc...id1=226&id2=74

tritonheat1 · 09-23-2003, 03:40 PM

also if anyone has kazaa, go to it and go to search and type" (Street racing) and a whole list of car's come up and look for the 03 Cobra vs. turbo sentra and just watch the vid, and you'll be suprised. The senta just dominates the 395Hp cobra. Also the cobra is a high 12 to low 13sec 1/4mile car, but they start from a roll both times.

BTW is there anyway to post a video on here from kazaa.

The mach 1 is baaically an older cobra that has been restyled to look like the old mach one. The mach 1 also has the independent rear end like the cobras.
