I was recently talking to an owner of a 2001 or 2002 svt lightning. he was a young guy and when i asked him how much horsepower his truck has.. he quickly said 690 hp to the wheels? Is this even possible with out upgrading the supercharger and if so would the stock tranny even be able to handle this. please let me know if this is possible without a new supercharger or ANY internals. cuz i know for a fact he has changed no internals of the engine and no tranny. so at most hes got a cold air intake, new exhaust system and a tuner. can that stuff make that power.. please let me know before i head to the line with the guy!

 

no way, the stock block can handle about 500rwhp max with a really good tune. The most I have seen on a built block with heads and cams and the stock ported eaton was about 500rwhp, so its not possible he is making that with the stock blower. Maybe he has a 250 shot of nos

 

Thanks alot, i knew he was full of it, he has no nitours ,so i should have no problem blowing him away in my 1992 ford mustang 5.0 with a kenne bell super charger, cams, edlebrock heads and intake man. and my fender coldair intake, headers,msd ignition, my 3.73 gears and my 305 weld racing wheels lol thanks for the info still a fast *** truck lol. how are the hook up on those thing cuz i was looking at getting one?

 

his truck at best is a high 12s at 105-109mph... so if you can out mph that, you'll be golden.. assuming you can launch

 

Its a LIGHTNING, you never really know....Until u get your *** handed too you that is........

 

Not likely, unless he's running a 250 shot of nitrous or something like that

 

He doesn't have that much power without being fully built and without having an upgraded power adder (kenne bell, whipple, nitrous, and/or turbo). What are you running? Reason being is with just a tune and pulley change your easily looking at a 12 sec truck that will hand most anything its a$$ on the street. Especially from a dig. Good Luck.

 

hey guys my truck has 800RWHP since i installed my new K&N highflow intake. So yeah its possible.



NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

 

He's probebly a stupid ricer who owns a Lightning somehow, does he hang out with the ricers?

And when you hit the NOS everything goes blurry when your doing 85 mph right?

 

ahahahhahah he does hang out with ricers actualy, and they think the run the streets around here, but im preety sure each car there has now more then 200 hp other then his lightning. O well we'll just have to line em up and see

 

Ya, I know what you mean. We have one of those guys here. He has the ricest looking Lightning I have ever seen.
