MaDMaXX's Bullitt

Post by MaDMaXX » Fri Nov 05, 2010 5:00 am

Not much to put in here right now, a couple of pics from when i bought it (not taken by me) and a few vids for exhaust note reference before i fit a nicer sounding pipe ;)

It's a 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt, limited edition, number 4013.

90k miles with a 4.6 litre V8 engine and a manual gearbox.

:shock:

Lovely looking car and a manual too.
What plans do you have for it other than a new exhaust?

Erm, other than maintenance, like sorting out the squeaky tie rod next tues, taking it to Ford this morning for an injector test as well as COPs.
The left rear light cluster has leaked and damaged the reflectors, so i need to replace that, but right now i can't really do much as money is very limited and not coming in. Once i get a job, i'll see what i fancy :)

Because it runs two cats, the exhaust i'm replacing it with has mandrel bends and no cats...

I'll post vids when i'm done, trust me, you'll like it better, but you know me, it'll only be a subtle.


OK, turns out injector #1 has failed, so i need to replace that real soon, 14 mpg isn't really helping things :( PS fluid is black death along with the brake fluid and very low front pads. Remember that's US gallons, so, hmm, lemme convert that, ok, that's 17.5 MPG in English.

Haha, living in an apartment is odd, i don't get the chance to clean it as much, i've literally not bathed it since i got it 1 month ago, i have done some servicing though. To that end, i've not taken any of my own pics :(

I'm awaiting a BH shipment ;) Got some things that really need cleaning on it.

The 3rd vid does sound very throaty, i think it's the angle the cameras at, also, it doesn't usually sound like that. The fault with the injector i believe is causing it to pop more and it should if at all.

I'm replacing all 8 injectors with some recon upgraded versions, should give a tiny bit more power and more efficiency :)

BTW when you change your zaust dont let them keep the cats, cats are worth a lot of money these days Dave, they contain precious metals, just in case you didnt already know. ;) Look forward to hearing it again.
