Default Mach 1 Terminator Differences

First of all, I searched and didn't find a conclusive answer.

Where can I find a good list of Mach1 and Terminator differences?

I know the basics: S/C, IRS, Tranny, Forged Internals.

If I swapped my motor and got a new tranny (I have an IRS), what else would need to be done to make bring the car up to speed with a Termi?

thanks!

you could just built your engine to make more power than a termi.
differences you already stated, power/drive train and cosmetics with interior differences.

Just forge the bottom end, get a built tranny and boost it and you will be with a Termi. In terms of racing the SRA is easier to mod.

This is funny, Everyone is always so worried and concerned about either being just as fast as a terminator or beating one.

Default Twin Turbo

I have seen what a Twin Turboed Terminator can do, however I like the Mach body style better, so I'm just curious to see what I would need to do to my car to allow it to handle that type of forced induction.

Thanks

After owning both a mach and terminator I enjoy and like my terminator a lot better. I guess its all just personal preference.

I know I could care less about being as fast as or beating a termi.

My main goal when I had a Mach1 was taking down LS1, which is still my goal in my terminator. OP you should worry about being able to take down a heads/cam/n20 LS1 and not a fellow mustang owner haha

I have never had a street race nor would I participate in one. I do live 15 minutes from New England Dragway but I chose to start cornering.
