I dunno – I won’t mess with a Mach with my setup. I think they have me on #’s (RWHP).

I may be wrong but how can a 99-04 GT come up with the Mach 1's assumed 300 HP with just plain bolt ons. That doesn't seem realistic at all.

I think your forgeting something. All numbers are at the engine not the rear wheels. So the GT probally has around 235 or so stock and the mach probally has about 275? 40hp is not that hard to get for a full bolt on GT.

Lol, I'm not saying a 2v is slow. I have a 2v. Bottom line is though that a 4v has more potential than a 2v. Both are great to me, but If u had the choice, you know you'd go 32v over 16v anyday.
