NewBullitt Owner with Questions

[blltt]

Hello everyone! First I would like to start off by saying its good to be back... Formerly blkelvs with a 96 mustang cobra which I had to sell a year ago and ended up with a 03 Focus ZX3. I absolutely hated that car, dont mean to offend anyone but it just wasnt me. On Sunday I traded it in on a bullitt with 20k miles on it. So far I love it!

As for my questions:

1. The tranny seems to really wine in first and second when coasting down in the upper RPM's, is this normal for that transmission. (I read it has a different tranny than the GT's or my old cobra)? Its not outragously loud, but a lot louder than my old cobra was...

2. When I am up in the upper rpms between 3-4k I hear a really faint noise that sounds like lifter noise (I know its overhead cam but thats the best way to describe it) dont really hear it when its full throttle, only when its like at half throttle, and its not all the time but pretty consistant.

3. Does anyone know what the 1/4 mile times are stock? Compared to an equal GT?

4. For this car what are the best cheap mods (between $200-$300)

Of course the car is still under warranty but I dont want to take it in if these are all normal conditions...

I guess thats all that I can think of right now, thank you all in advance for the input. I have been out of it for awhile... I just cant reitterate how good it feels to have a car that I love and am proud of again, I really missed that. As well as the commoradery of all the other mustang owners out there!

Anything else anyone can think of that I might want to know about my car would be great. I really dont know anything about the 98+ cars, and especially about the bullitt. Sorry for the long post.
