Making a mach1 a HP mach1

[MACHtobers Very Own]

I wish somebody would just throw together a kit or something close to it. I feel bad for the people shopping later after the Mach 1 wrapped production. I peruse used listings just to keep an eye on market and always a shortage of HP it seems.
Hp and fighter jet grey is what sold me on the car. 3500 for the hp package when it launched

Hence my disclaimer At the bottom. Not a statement of fact, simply a
search result. However, it would make complete sense that at least the USA mach 1 would have the same parts, and that Ford’s MBA’s were smart enough to know they can (if they are) make “different“ part #’s with software rather than stocking a zillion different racks.

I would highly doubt there's any thinking involved, apart from initial inventory numbering scheme set up, when a part gets a number. From my experience, when the inventory system has been configured, a numbering scheme is set up to follow specific rules. From that point onwards, any change, including a minor one, would trigger registering the same item under new part no. Sometimes change of the supplier for a specific component of the assembly, e.g. gasket or valve or a motor, etc., would trigger new part number in the system. So what you are saying seems very much plausible to me, that is same thing different number.

@Rhyanski ill get you those part numbers tomorrow, lots of liquor at the moment my European friend

Want the “other“ steering rack?

Now, back to your bolt ons…..Y’all.

This is a great find, I honestly was thinking today that someday it probably will be 0 issue to change the software if not already. I actually have a vin from a vehicle someone was selling on here, only difference between our cars is the HP. All other packages are the same, security package, elite, etc. I hear sometimes you need all those to align for the as built data to work correctly.

@Rhyanski I found the parts you are looking for but I forgot you need RHD so I’m not entirely sure they make the Mach 1 “colored” trim in RHD since you guys only got them without the gauges it sounds like. I could probably find one that’ll work for the gauges but it’ll be a different “color” if that’s alright with you?

I guess this means Ford needs to include a USB with the HP Mach 1 “Kit” they’re not smart enough to offer.

At this point it really makes no sense. We’ve seen it can be done via the software with the magneride handling pack.

We got guys hooking up 2015-2017 EPAS into 2009 Mustangs though in coyote swaps haha, it can be done I’m 99% sure.

No, Europe drives normally, only the UK folks drive on the wrong side, LOL ... We drive LHD so the numbers must be exact match. I will order the dash trim from the US, because in Europe they don't have the same numbering here, or at least not for all spares. Whatever is "US Market only" does not list here on the catalogues for the official dealers. Anyways, I would like to have the exact coloring scheme for the mach 1, as I don't want to change all panels and I want to keep it as close to the original scheme as possible.

Okay perfect lol excuse my incompetence on the subject let me get you those part numbers

@IPOGT I had a thought and chased it down a bit. I thought, how much should the actual EPAS matter for different wheel and tire sizes? Well, I thought about how a Shelby Super Snake begins life as a GT and becomes what it is. If you look, a super snake comes with the EPAS STE806 (LR3Z3504S) which is the same one we have. It then runs upfront and in the rear 20 inch wheels. I’m assuming 20x11, they have 20x9.5 on the Shelby website and label the 20x11 “rears only”. I believe that warning is only for regular GT’s wanting to buy the wheel, because if you look at any super snake listing it runs a square 305/30/20 upfront and in the rear, which would not fit on a 9.5 wheel, only 11 in this case.

@Rhyanski 99% sure your trim panel PN is: KR3Z6304338LC. I will double check tomorrow, having trouble finding gauge PN.

That really seems to be THE one! Thank you so much! How do you manage to figure it out? I was browsing rockauto and levittown ford parts website for days without ANY luck on figuring it out!
This number seems to be both the trim and the gauges all in one, shich is perfect.

Really? That’s great news! I didn’t even know it came with the gauges as well, was thinking otherwise we can track those down too. The way I find parts so accurately is I use parts.ford.com

I have my vin of my loaded 2023 Mach 1 and I also bummed a loaded 2023 Mach 1 with the HP from a user here, so I can really find anything you guys need! I figure down the road it’ll come in handy having both (especially for messing with as built data, etc.)

 

[Mach 307]

I kept researching and this is what I came across. I ran two 2023 Mach elite pack HP cars as built data versus my 2023 Mach elite pack non-HP cars as built data. I found 5 differences of code. Front and rear TPMS threshold, front and rear tire circumference and wheel ticks/rev bundle so I’m assuming that’s like the Speedo. Other than that there were no differences whatsoever. Any other differences weren’t shared between the HP cars and differ from my non-HP car, so they’re not HP exclusive differences. So really it seems the only differences in programming is about tire size and TPMS, unless there’s something I’m missing here.
