[@johnnyjohnstone9404]

Gotta be one of the best-looking vehicles ever made!

[@bonniewatch8463]

The R had no torque under 4000. The mach has more torque down low so on the street it feels faster.

[@JesseAndMike]

Love that car! Awesome video!

[@justmat28]

How about showing us the difference between the Mach 1 handling package suspension vs the GT PP1 suspension and what the difference is that allows HP Mach1 to run a 10.5 wheels in the front.

[@saleen367]

The Mustang GT PP2 has the same size since 2018.

[@6ixspeedstang186]

@@saleen367 correct…. My pp2 has the same set up only difference is it doesn’t come with 315s in the back. It comes with 305s on all 4.

[@tommyyancy3902]

That car is spec’s exactly the way I wanted one. Definitely one of my dream cars.

[@steedaautosports]

You have good taste! -Chris

[@smitty858]

If you are going to daily drive, you can opt for downgrade tires at no charge or buy a second set as you stated.

[@seanmccarthy6992]

man the Mach 1 is a sexy looking car especially in black

[@JerryCecco]

too bad customers need to buy a "special" Mustang to get a working manual transmisssion. My 2012 Boss 302 MT82 was crap for the money

[@seanmccarthy6992]

I know how you feel I had a 14 5.0 and I hated hated the MT82 trans

[@mustang8206]

Such a beautiful car with the black and red

[@historickeeper]

10 days and I will have one on my drive already have the steeda hpipe and pro Ali coolant tank from steeda UK can't wait for more parts to be added.

[@McCray_Racing]

A ceramic spray is great advice for the enthusiast with hard to clean wheels!

[@yoganlates7775]

What about the fender flares? It is missing those.

[@Smokintesla]

Thanks for the review, is there a difference between magna ride suspension between the Mach 1 with and without the handling package or is it the exact same suspension?

[@erniemckinnon8991]

According to Car and Driver mag. I would say you are wrong on the brakes. The car obviously doesn't have the top speed or better maneuverability of the Gt 350 so I would have to say the brakes were the discerning factor on VIR track as it was faster than the gt350 in lap time.

[@gordydexter2615]

I like your video, awesome feedback. I have heard your X-pipe. It is definitely an improvement. Does Steeda now make a double X-pipe like Corsa? Thanks!!!

[@nothere928]

Yall saw the Shelby American facebook post about the suprise coming on Dec 15? Its obviously a GT500 under the tarp but my guess is its the Super Snake package everyones been waiting for.

[@wimbrow1]

nice video as always. i know you were focusing on "handling " but you didn't do the no lift shift. one of my favorite things about the tremac. cheers, tom

[@steedaautosports]

A bit leery doing that in a customer car, but once we get our hands on one in-house, we’ll be sure to test it! Thanks! -Chris

[@mikehawk120]

This Mach 1 is the GT we have always wanted.

[@ClickbaitMotorsports]

The GT350 was the beta testing platform for the Mach 1 HP. All perfection, none of the flaws.

[@mikegay8511]

I'm ordering one next year.

[@justinhill6474]

You better go-ahead and put in an order I've been waiting 6 months and they have pushed back my build date 4 times each time a week to a month

I thought all mach1 and 500GT orders was canceled, till next year. Due to not having parts. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@JuanSalazar-fy9do]

So would you prefer the manual or automatic?

[@Koishishibaman]

I have a 19 bullitt with a h pipe, and magnaride. Forgestsr cf5 wheels. Added the M 9602 M ford racing suspension kit to it. For me, perfect. Loud, fast on the corners. The only real problem is the excessive weight of the car. Need to diet to about 3500 lbs or less😂 My 79 full race vw scirocco was less than 2000 lbs. Stupid fast on a twisty road.

[@MogulFarmer]

We are lucky that Ford builds the Mustang at such a reasonable price point. A well maintained used stock GT, 2015+, with a modest amount of drive train and suspension modifications can hang with cars more than twice the price. Add a supercharger and the tables turn.

[@marktarascio4766]

That's true and the 15 through 17 engines had oil squirters underneath the Pistons to keep them cool .So you can up the horsepower even more than the 18 and and not burn a piston.

[@isrstrategies]

for residual purposes only way to buy the car down the road you'll get your money back especially because they couldn't provide as many handling package as we're ordered in 2021. Look at what a 2012-13 boss 302 are bringing with lower miles almost or in some cases what they were new. I will say that never happened with a BMW m4 I owned from new when it was even three years old with low miles, limited fords good investment especially in future with v8s and gasoline going away in 10-12 years

[@spitfire9610]

Compare stock PP2 vs stock Mach 1

[@TheWhiteCometOfZion]

Mach 1 is better in every way. Just look at the specs.

[@nissanbrown6144]

I have a 2022 mach 1 10speed auto with handling elite package

[@captainrawn]

I just bought a 2022 equipped the same way and also in Fighter Jet Grey like yours. Should get it in a week or so! How has the ownership experience for the last year?

[@TheVikingRL]

Would like to see this one dyno'd with the x-pipe. And definitely one with aftermarket headers if possible.

[@gordydexter2615]

@Gary Hitchcock: Do you still have your 2020 GT? If so I was curious if you are driving it as a daily car with the 800 hp? I ordered a Dark Horse and I will either install the Whipple or go centrifugal w/ESS GX3 plus headers. My goal is 700+hp. Your thoughts please?

[@matts9289]

You do the Whipple Supercharger yet? Do you think a strut brace will fit on this combo?

[@jesusm2159]

Is the windshield decal good against sun rays?

[@TheWhiteCometOfZion]

I'm fortunate enough to have been able to afford one of the rarest Mach 1 HP's in its sticker configuration.

[@pazsoli9695]

👍🏽 I want a spring and sway bars combo for my 23 Mach1 it comes with the handling package already I want a lower more aggressive stance with performance

[@steedaautosports]

We actually just came out with our Nurburg Package for the Mach 1s. Front and rear sway bars paired with our Dual Rate Handling Springs -> www.steeda.com/steeda-555-2155-mustang-mach-1-nurburg-package

Throw it on the Dyno!

[@erniemckinnon8991]

Would love to know if you had tried out the handling package vs. no handling package on the mach 1 on an actual hot lap??

[@steedaautosports]

We'll see what we can do! -Chris

[@SuperSeanCasey]

Can I get a revised magnaride tune for my 21 pp1.

[@Vffr1]

Mach 1 is much faster in the 1/4 mile (and streets) vs the GT350. Now you know.

[@TheWhiteCometOfZion]

And as fast or faster on a twisty road or race track because I ran away from a 350R in the twisties.

[@JerryCecco]

wheel weight?

[@crsquirrely73]

Hey I got a question for you I have a 2020 Mustang GT performance pack with a stage 2 Whipple and headers running E85 making about 800 horsepower to the wheel but My question is if I were to buy your suspension parts like you're bushings and you're stop the hop package would you guys be willing to install them at your shop I would pay obviously for the stuff you guys could use my car in one of your videos

[@steedaautosports]

Hi Gary, Yes, we could definitely do the install if you had your car come in. As for the rest, I'm sure we could talk something out to get that organized too.

[@juhsztn]

this video was LONG overdue 👺

[@marktarascio4766]

This review of a handling packages kind of strange because on the regular Mustang GT handling package Steeda provides all the components to Ford

[@sirgaming3813]

Does the Mach 1 have an oil temp. gauge?

[@steedaautosports]

There is a gauge on the digital dash, but not a physical one like the GT350.

[@sirgaming3813]

@ Which gauge? Because my Mach 1 only has the cylinder head temperature and the differential temperature in the digital speedometer (no gearbox temperature because I have a manual one) . the cooling water temperature is also displayed, but nothing more

[@Vffr1]

I'm getting 1.

[@NormalShock]

Did you get any baseline impressions / times before slapping on all the parts? Seems like a marketing basic, to demonstrate the improvements.

[@steedaautosports]

We did on our Mach 1 when we first got it

[@NormalShock]

@@steedaautosports It seems there is a general disconnect in the automotive world; there is the Mach 1 then there is the Mach 1 with HANDLING PACKAGE.

[@steedaautosports]

We didn't get the chance to with this one as it was a customer car. We'll see what we can do about getting some before/after comparisons in the queue. Thanks for the feedback!

[@alnfong1228]

Yours is missing the front wheel lip molding!!! They also missed mine when I picked up my Mach 1.

it comes in trunk of car it's because a shit tech prepped it, did they install them ?

[@isrstrategies]

how could you miss them when taking delivery and paying for car and doing paperwork

[@alnfong1228]

I didn't even realize it until I showed my Mach 1 to a friend of mine. He spotted that out right away. So I contacted my dealers, a few days later they call me up and said the part is in and They installed back it .

[@thejlay14]

What does this look like ? I got handling pack mach 1 want to make sure mine has them you can’t rely on dealerships anymore to know anything

[@CrossfireGamingNetwork]

Anyone get the recaros and daily drive with them? I'm tempted to spec one with the recaros.

[@steedaautosports]

They’re not as bad as you might think. I had them in my 2018 GT and loved them, even on long trips. If you don’t mind bypassing the heated/cooled option. I’m 6’ 2” and 225 lbs for reference. Hope this helps! -Chris

Wing/Spoiler… are goes under and over!

Love these in black. Remove that red stripe from the hood. Remove that extra extended spoiler. And remove Mach 1 badges. Then paint correct. Perfection.

[@kevinbreese5739]

Nah, it looks perfect as is. The retro Mach 1 badges look great and show off what the car is and make it unique. Same with the stripes. It's a special version of the mustang and should be kept as-is other than maybe lowering if someone wanted to do that. Either way, looks awesome as is to my eyes.

[@5.0Lorenzo]

Might as well go buy a bland ass mustang gt in black then if you’d remove literally all the Mach 1 aesthetics
