    Oh. Yes it has swirls. I detailed it myself and I'm no pro. The car was also dirty in most of the shots. Remember these pics were all taken when on-the-go from state to state. I too wouldn't take my car to a body shop to get it detailed. I'm just getting new parts installed and minor body...

    mild turbo to overcome altitude

    Here's some pics I took during my NJ-CA road trip. Some proof of how much altitude affects your car just at idle. 5,000 ft in Zion NP, UT 10,000 ft in Bryce NP, UT My vacum back home (Jersey) is at sea level at 26. I don't have a pic. In Bryce there were times when I...

    Thanks. If you're talking about my old post... Paint Doesn't Match New Car! What to do? - ModularFords.com It's at the body shop as we speak. Nose is getting fixed and doing some light body mods to the rear, not your basic bolt-ons either :D I can't wait to see it...

    I was VERY glad lol. There were places that you did NOT want to break down. Those were the places where I kept the needle in vac. I kept my distance when cruising. It was a promise I made to myself before getting a black car. Even then I still caught a few :mad: Cali was beautiful.

    Damn right on the +1 to PH. This is why I got this kit. This is my only car so a streetable DD was priority #1 when I modded this car. Now my goal is to do the same trip with your 130+ trap speed. Hey, it's ok to dream. Thanks.

    Hi, I just got back from my long road trip. The car didn't skip a beat. Special thanks goes out to PowerHouse for engineering a great turbo kit and TTP for a rock solid tune. I'm just very happy that I didn't break down in some desert :clap: Some of the premium gas in the midwest was only 89...

    08 Turbo Bullitt

    The Bullitt has a diffirent cold air and tune from the GT. And since the turbo set up removes the cold air and does a retune, it's the exact same starting point as a GT. The combo I have now came from my 08 GT that got totaled. The bullitt is a tad quicker because of the 3:73s vs the GT...

    08 Turbo Bullitt

    Well keep me posted on whether or not your wideband has the same problem as mine with the bell going off. The car was properly tuned btw.

    08 Turbo Bullitt

    That's what I was told. Do you have one? If so, does the bell keep going off when you go into boost?

    08 Turbo Bullitt

    Hi, No, it's the PowerHouse Turbo kit powerhouse411.com The wideband I've been using is a dynojet. Personally I'm not too happy with it because the bell is always going off when I get in it. This was with my 08 GT but it does the same with the Bullitt!

    I already joined IMBOC. Just waiting for activation. Good to see another bullitt head. Yes the accident sucked but what's important is that everyone walked away. I got lucky. At least I can say that I came out with something better now :D Thanks. Thanks, I'm looking forward as well. It goes...

    and said: "move your slow ass." Overall, I like the car though. But 15hp just isn't cuttin it.
