Is there a difference in horsepower between a mach 1 mustang and a Gt mustang?

 

Valid question but you might hear this soon

"Horsepower sells cars, Torque wins races"

 

sorry for not answering your question

Mach 1: about 305
Gt: about 260 stock

Btw: those are at the crank. The big difference between the engines is the amount of valves and compression ratio, something like 10.1:1 against something like 9.3:1. I'm sure ill be corrected

 

wow i thought they would be the same

 

Well you dont pay that much more for some emblems, grille, chin spoiler, new springs, and a shaker hood. They got to improve the engine to back up the price

 

yeah that is very true.

 

so exactly how much horsepower does the new GT come with stock? ford sells it as 300 HP, but i hear thats not the case. How much in a V6 stock?

 

pretty sure the v6 is 210hp/240tq and the v8 is 300/320tq but i am no expert at the new mustangs

 

thanks for the info... may not be the correct thread to ask this, but i have the borla cat back aggressive exahust, and i was wondering about the X-pipe borla offers. Any suggestions? is this a good way to go, or should i look at something else? http://www.borla.com/applications/lo...TX_Pipe/60092/

any help u guys can give would be great.

 

You can never go wrong with borla they are top of the line, if you can afford the rediculous cost. I personally like h-pipes they have a more muscle car sounding exhaust tone. x-pipes have a more european raspy sound, but its all personal taste. I think most people on these boards have o/r x-pipes

 

cool, where can i find a good H-pipe? the muscle car sounding exhaust is what im trying to go for. i like the loud but deep sound. dont get me wrong, the borla cat back def. gave me a much better sound.. but u know how it is, once u go loud, u always want to go louder..lol.

 

yeah lol afterwhile whats loud seems to not be so loud to you

 

I've checkout a few other forums and people seem to have the same opinion on the H pipe over the X-pipe if im looking for a deep V8 roar. Anyone know of a good place to find an H-pipe that would go with the borla cat back?

 

I got my Mac h-pipe (off road) from Brenspeed on ebay. I was like $150 shipped. I'm pretty sure it should bolt right up to your borla catback but I could be wrong.

 

Here's what you would sound like with a Mac ProChamber and Borla Stingers. Sounds awesome imo.

thanks man, i'll look into some... By them being off road pipes, that could make me fail the state emission test right?

 

Yup. Where are you from?
