Getting My Mach Back! - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

oxfordwhitemach · 02-17-2009, 04:28 PM

Well, after 5 months I will soon be getting to drive my car again. I blew it up at the drag strip and waiting way too long to fix it. Boosted Performance built a longblock for me and they will be putting it back into the car next week. After that, I will get a driveability tune, break it in, get the final tune, and enjoy my new high compression motor. I can't wait. I will be sure to post up videos of the first startup as well as the dyno tune. Wish me luck!

Can't wait to hear her run again!

Congrats on the build.

Now bring that bad boy to Birmingham in April for the 45th Anniversary Show. We'd love to see it along with about 2000 other Mustangs.

Again, congrats on getting your car back.
