Any guesses on what a newer Lightning with cat back, intake, TB, and a tune would run? And how about one that has also been pullied? I'm trying to gauge if I can keep up with you guys while staying N/A... I doubt I can take one without some heads or LTs and E-fans, but I'd like to see if I can run side by side with my current set-up.

 

With what you just listed, low 13's probably.

With pullies, it depends on the size and the tune. Anywhere from high 12's to low 12's, sometimes 11's if they're setup right.

 

wow nice, thx Cree... I guess I'll have to spray to win

 

You spray ho...............LMAO!!

 

^^^^^^????????

what are you sayin?

 

I'm assuming he's refering to me when I said I'd spray to win, instead of staying N/A on them.

I think he's just jealous though

 

I saw 401hp and 482trq with a 4# pulley, CAI, cat-back exhaust, race tune with 20* timing 104 octane and an a/f of 11.8, and built tranny with stall, and was around 8.2 range with 28/10.5/16 Hoosier slicks, it really desn't take much to get an L to that mark, but the 7.99 or faster starts to take $1,000+ mods

The exhaust on a 99-04 L's flow really well, without long tubes, cat-backs are for sound, most see no gains except in the "seat of your pants" dyno

Without the help of a pulley the other mods really don't do much for power. With cat-back and CAI I saw 343 hp and 413 trq


I agree, but it also depends on traction, I have seen 12.7-12.9 in the 1/4 with the listed mods, 4# pulley and drag radials

 

a power adder is a power adder mechanical or chemical so you have to spray to keep up with a supercharged truck. Just watch out for bottle fed lightnings a 50 shot once it is compressed through the blower will add closer to 100hp

? would a NOSzles system for a mustang 4.6 work on our trucks so you could control the amount of nitrous better. i think a nitrous kit on my truck would be cool

 

That's interesting because I thought about going to a bottle.I never thought of that.

 

the more boost = more air and nitrous if used packed into the cylender if the nitrous is added on top of the blower it will compress the same as the air if it is added below the blower it is easer to controle the shot. it will still have an aditional + of coolling the air charge if you add a dry shot start small and push your injectors full rich then back down you may wish to have a flip chip so you do not run excessively rich when not using your nitrous and remember lean is mean but rich is safe
