holy shit... i'll trade!
you didn't mention anything about the '05 though... do that, and then you'll get some opinoins

Mach Boy · February 27th, 2011, 01:05 AM

It'd be a downgrade in power on motor, but that's about it. The FRPP Thumper cams sound amazing and the interior of the S197s blow the SN95s out of the water. I'd trade in a heartbeat if I were you.

00mustang92 · February 27th, 2011, 02:11 AM

I got the 01 bullitt it ain't a sn95..... But yeah the interior is a lot nicer still.... 03gtmonster it says bout 3 lines about the bottom that this is bout the 05... I'll try make it a little easier..

00mustang92 · February 27th, 2011, 02:13 AM

With gas going up like it is, my car at its worse gets 17 mpg and on parkway I can get 24... Heard that cars with bigger cams are a lot harder on gas but guy thats got car says it ain't?? what do yall think.. I just can't handle to get down in the 15 and below range

Serlin · February 27th, 2011, 08:03 AM

ya, I'd trade.
The S197 is better all around platform.

Newsflash... It is an SN95. All Mustangs from 96-04 are SN95s and there is a subgroup of that from 99-04 called New Edge.

As for the cams, the Thumper cams aren't that aggressive just like the FR500 cams in 4Vs. The 05 is only making 320rwhp which isn't that far off from a S197 GT with just bolt-ons.

00mustang92 · February 27th, 2011, 10:53 AM

so don't think its gonna mess with the gas mileage much at all?

00mustang92 · February 27th, 2011, 10:59 AM

And do the 05 have any common problems...

Mach Boy · February 27th, 2011, 06:35 PM

It won't mess with it as much as a supercharger. Again it's only 20hp difference between what you're looking at and a full bolt-on GT. As far as I know there weren't any big problems but I'm not a good person to ask for that. Try the 05-09 forum it gets more traffic.

03gtmonster · February 27th, 2011, 08:14 PM

oh shit i'm blind...

Bullitt5339 · February 27th, 2011, 08:17 PM

The Bullitt is a limited production car, 05 GT's grow on trees.

Keep what you have.

bullitt1680 · February 27th, 2011, 11:33 PM

We all know that Bullitt Mustangs are junk

00mustang92 · February 28th, 2011, 02:09 AM

My supercharger don't hurt my cars gas mileage a bit..... This 05 is a slick car though.... But yeah I don't gotta think that I got one of 1818 cars like mine...I'm leaning toward the 05

KV007 · February 28th, 2011, 02:12 AM

ehh, get the 05. newer body style. more reliable and something new

00mustang92 · February 28th, 2011, 02:16 AM

yeah thats what I'm thinking.. The bigger cams don't make it more prone to tear up does it?

Mach Boy · February 28th, 2011, 08:28 AM

Assuming they were installed correctly the only thing that should make it more prone to wear and tear is your right foot.

rk_2000_Z/28 · February 28th, 2011, 10:04 AM

If it was me, I'd make the swap. You're getting an all around much better platform. The supercharger is really the only thing that would make me hesitate, but they make superchargers for 3V's also. You do have a somewhat rare car, but really, how does that benefit you right now? Now maybe if you plan on keeping the car for 40 years and selling it when it's a 'classic' than maybe, but in 2011 you're car really isn't going to demand a lot of money. Especially with that many miles and mods

00mustang92 · February 28th, 2011, 11:26 PM

The only thing that is holding me back is that mines limited production and its got bout 40 more hp... Besides that I'm all for this car...wish had a link I could show you car is so nice.. Probably one best looking 05 ups ever seen

Let me ask you this, and I'm being for real here, not trying to disrespect your Bullitt, but how does your car being a limited production vehicle benefit you? I understand having a cool vehicle that is rare, but honestly 95% of the people you see on a daily basis wouln't even know what you have. So other than the fact that it says Bullitt on the back and the 5% of the people that understand and appreciate that, it's really not much different than the other New Edges on the road.

Now the extra 40 horsepower I understand, but you can make that up with a few more mods to the 05.
