Default Poll please answer!

I have a 98 f-150 with exhaust, intake, bbk 75mm tb, bbk underdrive pullies, and a hypertech max energy programer. Only running a 16.2 1/4 mi. I have considered dropping in a 5.4 and putting all these mods on it. (they work on both 5.4 and 4.6) but how much better would my time get for an easy 3,000? what do the 5.4s run with these mods? I have also considered bolting on a supercharger to my 4.6. But for an easy 5,000 would it be worth it? What do the 4.6s run supercharged. And last but not leaste i have considered saleing my truck for about 4,500 and putting it down on a lightning but then i would have a car note....Which way should i go with this? i am really considering the s/c on my 4.6...any one got some times? Please help me out!!!

Get a Lightning. They are cheap right now due to the economy. It will be newer, probably in better shape, could already be built, plus now you have a Lightning and not just another F-150.
