2020 5.0 N/A Build Potential / Recommendations

[s550.bullitt]

Hey everyone,

I have a 2020 Bullitt basic bolt ons right now with a 93 tune. looking to do a full out N/A Build for max power.

Current Mods:
Kooks 2" Long Tube headers Catted
Corsa Extreme Cat Back
Ported GT350 Intake manifold
93 Tune


Besides Engine Mods what looking for ideal suspension route y'all would recommend see if it matches up with what I've been thinking about for good handholding street / strip.

Sitting right about 487 to the wheel right now.

Looking to get to mid to high 500s on an N/A set up what has everyone seen so far? What would you guys recommend next or the route to go? Definitly next upgrades are going to be Billet Oil pump and Crank Sprocket.

Cobra jet intake. Cams. E85. Off road headers. Regear. Weight reduction. Or boost

In before the landslide of FI responses....

If you don't already have a cradle lockout, it would be at the top of my suspension mod list.

I would highly suggest our Bread and Butter Sequel kit for a suspension setup that is track proven to work. We have had customers cutting 1.2s on fairly mild builds with this very package and you can dial it in to hook up on the street just the same. Cams also would be a good finishing touch obviously for your build, those are some solid numbers. if you have any questions, feel free to shoot me a PM anytime. https://www.lethalperformance.com/b...g-bread-and-butter-ii-the-sequel-package.html

Thats a pretty decent setup you have already power wise. To get a little more power out of it you could swap to an E85 tune if it is readily available in your area along with a set of cams.

Suspension wise one of the Steeda Stop the Hop kits or a BMR suspension package would be a great option to pair with a lowering spring. Even a Viking shock would be a killer option to give you some adjustability street/ strip.

Lastly, a sticker tire will help as well.

Hit me up and I can get you dialed in with any route you want to go.

Feel Free to DM me or call with any questions.

I think a fuel system would be a good next mod for you. Make the switch to E85 you'll notice some great gains. We sell DivisionX fuel systems which are the best on the market and are true plug and play.

Gt350 manifold over stock ported manifold? That’s interesting, I have a ‘21 gt and ported my stock manifold. I wonder if the 350 would’ve netted me anything…also for dyno numbers sounds like you were on an air density dyno. Most guys pushing 500+ N/A w/ out E85 have achieved it via a mustang dyno

I think mid to high 500s seems like a tall order N/A, unless you do cams, head work. The easy way is some sort of power adder (ie, blower, turbo or my favorite, nitrous). Your numbers are very respectable btw. I basically have most of the same mods that you have and you picked up about 18 more hp and 7 less rwtq than me. I’m also on an E85 tune. Now with a 150 shot of nitrous, I picked up 170 additional rwhp and 168 additional rwtq. Looking forward to see how you squeeze more out of your Bullitt.
