Modding

I'm thinking of modding my Bullitt a little. I already did the 8-inch shorty, and I think I'm going to do the SHR Flush-Mount Window Louvers. I have an appointment to get tint on Friday. I don't want to do a drop just yet. The car is brand new, so I'm going to wait until the suspension breaks-in.

I want to do an off-road x-pipe. Can you guys recommend anything?

Thanks,

Josh

I think Pypes makes one, you can also try SLP. There's tons of mod sites so you could look around

I've only found AmericanMuscle.com. I didn't find any other mod sites that looks decent to me. Do you have a list of other good ones?

I have personally used and have had fantastic service from these sites

brenspeed.com-Brent is awesome, if you want good advice, go here
americanmuscle.com-Love these guys, got my wheels here among other things
lmperformance.com-A very large amount of mods, especially suspension and exhaust
silverhorseracing.com-Marcello is a great Mustang freak that sells great mods, some made by him.

I have probably used other sites, but these come to mind first.

You can spend alot of money at these websites, so be careful. Only enter them if you dare. It can really clean out your wallet, and having you asking for higher credit limits on your credit cards.

Hahaha, thanks for the help man. I appreciate it. I'll hopefully be starting a modding thread soon on what I'm going to do to my car.

I've got a Bullitt, so the stock muffler and tips are staying. The sound alone is enough to make you jizz yourself. I've made 4 girls wet since I got the car... This was them saying it, too.

Yeah. That's about the best description of the Bullitt exhaust I've ever heard.

Hahahaha, thank you. I was picking my buddy up from a dealership yesterday, and he had a girl friend of ours with him. She hadn't seen my car yet, so they told me to hit the loud pedal. They were about 50 feet away, and the look on both of their faces was enough to make me giggle with pride. She came right over and I thought she was going to get on her knees right there... She was excited. To say the least.

Start a new thread in GT Performance mods asking that same question. You'll get lots of informed responses.

You are my hero for saying that

The new Bullitts are growing on me oh so much. I played with one on the highway a few weeks back. Obviously he can tear me to shreds performance wise, but he was cool about it. It was pretty awesome to have two Bullitts cruising down 280

Precisely. I was told by a girlfriend of mine that if she wasn't dating her current boyfriend, she would be blowing me from the passenger seat... I told her I didn't mind if he watched. She is the notorious friend that hooks up with all of her guy friends. I'm the only one that she didn't get to hook up with. The reason I didn't do it is because I didn't want to be involved with her in any way besides a friend. I knew if I hooked up with her she'd be calling me for anything and everything... She already does that enough now.

Hahahaha, thanks. I try to say hi and possibly toy with regular GT's, but all I get is dirty looks. And then when they **** me off with those looks I put my car in neutral and rev at them while moving... They really hate that! Hahaha.
