2019 Bullitt Tuner?

[sdiver68]

Not here to argue but... Are you suggesting that the 18-19 GT gives nothing to the Bullit?

This isn't a "mine is better than yours" post. I actually had a pp2 gt on order when this bullitt came available to me.

Yes I am suggesting that exactly. Simply, until proven otherwise with data. Like you said, I dont care about mine versus yours...only the search for facts.

If Bullitt mods are proven to add HP...those items become viable potential upgrades to me. But the experience and dyno numbers of those who have added those exact mods in search of power strongly suggest otherwise.

Here is TGGT’s dyno results for an E85 Cobra Jet 2018+. I haven’t seen any E85 Bullit dyno tests yet. It will be interesting to see what the GT350 CAI/intake/throttle gives up. https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/dyno-numbers-finaly.109545/

Cheers,

Fyi his mods are: 1 7/8 jba long tubes, Corsa Extreme with maganflow 12469, no cats, cobra jet int, twin 65mm t body, cobra jet cai, 4:10 gears , Lund e85 tune.

Pretty strong numbers.

Well I would assume you’d agree that it’s been proven repeatedly that a cai and tune is a viable upgrade to a standard gt (claims of 30+hp is the norm if I’m not mistaken). the Bullitt has those as well as the gt350 manifold.... why so hard to believe that there’s more horsepower?? I’ve driven a standard gt and I can tell you first hand there’s a lot more crackle and pop from the exhaust on the Bullitt; which itself suggests a difference in breathing and tune.
I guess that at the end of the day it’ll all be proven once we see a few races between the 2 cars.

Yep I agree, if the Bullitt tune is already more optimized theres a possibility that's where 20hp is coming from. If that's the case it takes away from a tune adding very much more, excepting e85 of course! Just curious, does the Bullitt require 91?

You had a question on how to add another 20hp. I also read 1 of your posts that you would prefer to avoid a tune since they are easily detectable. If you are open to a 93 tune then that's probably your ticket.

It was blue thunder that said adding a tune would void the warranty... I’m not opposed to doing it because I figured if I had an issue I would remove the tune before bringing it in for warranty. I don’t know if it’s been confirmed that evidence of a tune being used is somehow detectable so I guess it would be smart to get confirmation on that before doing anything.
I always run premium in my cars, but I’m uncertain if the Bullitt actually requires it; there’s nothing suggesting that on the fuel fill however so I’m thinking it’s tuned for regular?
The car is impressive stock, and realistically another 20hp isn’t likely going to do much for the seat of the pants so it may not be worth it in the end.
I’ve been down the road of spending big dollars on horsepower in the past and am fully aware that any significant gain will almost always come with a compromise in reliability or drivability. I guess in asking the question I was just looking for an answer that nobody has yet (since the car is so new to the market)... if the answer was a no brainer, and a proven 500+hp was a click away I’d probably be in.
As it is; I’ll just leave well enough alone and enjoy the hell out of this amazing ride.

The gt350 manifold will carry the power higher and farther than the 18+ manifold. That vmp test is cancer.

Also, the "fresh air intake" won't flow as good as a pmas or jlt.


PMAS and headers, I'd be willing to bet a Bullitt will make 500whp
