Installed my boost gauge today; Now I just gotta wait a few more weeks until the boost is installed to see it work :) Pretty simple install, even swapping the bright chrome bezel off to the satin was an easy task.

Hi 94Gt, I'm about to install a supercharger and would like to replace the vacum gauge for one that also reads boost, like the one you installed. yours look OEM, is that from the Ecoboost one?
thank u!

Love the '69 Mach 1. I feel that year body style really resembles the S550. Looks great even today.
I agree! When I was younger, I was not a huge fan of the '69-'70 fastbacks. But, they grew on me for sure. And, I love how much of those styling cues are present in the S550!

What percentage tint is that, and what's the legal tint % in your state ?

Had new Nitto 555RII's installed on my stock 19's because we put 8,000 miles on the MP4's over the last two months and they are bald. Also washed it to get all of the bug guts off.

Took the car on an 8,000 mile roadtrip over the last few months and had 4 passengers in it 90% of the time. My wife, mother in law and two kids got to ride in the back seat multiple times and no one had any issues.

Averaged 22mpg over those 8,000 miles. Car got a REDICULOUS amount of comments. I've owned it for two years and when we left it was at 12,500.. Returned yesterday with 20,500. Was fun but this will be it's last road trip like this. :)

Wait… (4) passengers?? How’d you do that, 1 in the trunk? There’s barely enough room in the back seat for a single person… 🤣

Ikr? :) but yeah. We left with our two kids in the back seats. My 11 year old actually rode in the front most of the time until we dropped him off in NE and then we put my mother in law in the back for a trip to gulf shores from AR which is about 1100 miles round trip :) my wife slept in the back seat from Dallas to AZ yesterday with her feet in the center console.

Our 11 year old And my wife are about the same height at 5’8” and our 8 year old is 4’6. The passenger seat was slid forward to accommodate but it worked out well!

The trunk was another story cause it was a game of Tetris at every hotel stop!

Nice pics, thanks for posting!

Was that a genuine S550 Steeda McQueen Bullitt and if so, do you recall the build #? Or was it a regular Bullitt with the Steeda McQuen rims?

Wait, you took a Supercharged Mustang on an 8000 mile road trip and STILL managed 22mpg?

If that's not an advert for Roush I don't know what is LOL

I think it's 15%, I didn't ask its what I always get on all my cars. I believe the legal limit is 35..

Had a friend that had a 70 Mach 1. He bought it new he got on hard times and sold it while I was in Iraq! I wanted that car soooo bad! Told him I would of paid a good price as well as let him buy it back when he got back on his feet! Just wasn’t meant to be! Had an 04 Mach 1 he loved it! It always put a smile on his face!
Yeah I had a '69 Mach 1 too! It was gold, with black stripes and that white woven vinyl interior. It was awesome, and unfortunately got wrecked. I would love it right now.

This just made me howl laughing because whenever anyone says anything about my back seats, I always say "Yeah. That's only for people you hate".

It is the same one. CJ Pony Parts had the best price on it. You can also use Forscan to enable it on your dadh also (which is more usable) but the gauges itself looks cooler imo.

Hopefully, everyone's recovered.
