For my '08 Bullitt I would say wider rims & tires for my first mod and probably a supercharger for the second. I would still want the OEM Bullitt wheels, just wider so it could fit at least 285's or 295's in the rear and 255's or maybe 275's up front.

Mod # 1: duct tape over my husbands lips so he can't say "No", lol.

Mod # 2: hmmm.....suspension and tires/wheels which affect each other, I am sure, so I consider them a single mod, lol.

That's cheating. But I agree with the logic.

supercharger a single mod?

maybe things have changed.


When I supercharged my Mach1 there were many mods that went with it. stock fuel pump and injectors will not cut it and you will probably need a new MAF as well.


Additionally, the stock Tremec 3650 did not hold up. I had to replace it with one rated for more HP. The rear axles started leaking so I have to get new bearings and bushings.


If I could do a supercharger as a single mod I would definitely choose that.

In my supercharger, I include all upgrades as part of that mod.

My two upgrades for my 2011 5.0 would be a Roush Stage 3 supercharger and all supporting mods as well as a Tremec T56 Magnum XL.

That should just about do the trick.
