I love my Mach 1, but in terms of cost-effective modding, it has to be the worst Mustang to start with if you want a supercharger. The block is aluminum making it a weak point, and the compression is high for what boosted cars run. In this case, you'd be better off building up a GT or just buying a Cobra.

On the other hand, if you aren't going supercharged, the Mach is probably the most cost-effective option. In stock form, you get a car that outruns GT's with normal bolt ons.
