I'd find a better place to spend your money.

Maybe some UDP's?

+1

your Mach1 pretty much has an excellent stock system with that Shaker. UPDs are a good use of 90 bucks

Don't do UDPs on a mach 1. They have supposedly (or allegedly) caused multiple oil pump failures. That is why out of the thousands of mach 1 owners on the registry- only about 20 of them if that have pullies. What I would look into is a the budget JLT Ram Air intake, and the PHP Intake spacer (great mod for the money) and call the intake good!

The cheapest one is the best one for a intake on our cars

dont get udp's on a mach 1. everyone says get the jly rai. from my expierince it is a p.o.s. me and my friend messed around with this thing for over an hour and it seems like it is impossible to get the whole from the filter cover to line up with the hole in the fender to put the screw in. and its all plastic and rubber, very home-made looking. if money is not an option get the C&L cai with 85mm maf. intake spacer also helps a lot low end.

+1 on the C&L... I saw noticeable gains on my SOTP dyno, looks pretty good too. And also, I've heard horror stories about UDPs on Machs. Check out mach1registry.org you'll see tons of posts about my engine exploded cuz my oil pump failed. That's definately not a mod I will ever do. It's not worth the gains for the chance you take.
