Don't take it personal, you not the first person to be questioned and you won't be last one either.
By the way after owning a f-150 4x4 with the 4.6L and a manual tranny, and then owning the Lightning I find it hard to believe that a manual tranny will give you .1 of a sec off the times. The throw is just to long and clunky on these trucks to compete with automatics shifts.
Vin - is it me or on that pic it looks like they used a pair of shorty headers for a engine as the intake pipe?

well, one reason why i am questioning is because they don't make the 5.4 manual, for starters.

Slip on the chest waders, it's gettin' real deep.

Let's have a look, shall we?
Holley Thunder System Supercharger- ok, you can get one for a regular F-150
Underdrive Pulleys (Gives 2-3 more psi supposedly from SC)- underdrive pulleys for a blower would give you LESS boost, and if you had underdrive pulleys for the engine belt, the Holley blower crank pulley would no longer fit
NOS Nitrous Boost 150 shot(hooked up to cigarette lighter)- if he's running a Holley Thunder blower with a 150 bag bottle shot, he'd blow the bottom end out of the block for sure. I'm also not aware of NOS making a 150 kit that plugs into the lighter
Cervinis Air Ram Hood- it's not functional, so it's useless for power
ProTorque Torque Converter- be interesting to see how it fits in that 5 speed
JBA HEaders- useless
Gibson Exhaust- useless
Jacobs Electronis Igntion System- Jacobs doesn't make an ignition system for coil on plug
90mm TB- a 90mm TB is HUGE and definately would not fit in place of the stock one
Granatelli MS Mass Air Flow- no problem there
Superchip Inc Superchip- no problem there
Air Aid TB Spacer- umm, ok
Volant Cold Air Intake- riiigghhtt...
K&N Air Filter- ok, you've now listed 4 different air intake parts. The MAF comes with it's own special filter that bolts to th end of it. There's no way these 4 parts would ever fit together.
Oh yea! Its also a 5 Speed Manual so that takes off about .1 of a sec compared to your "Automatics" - well, Ford never put a 5 speed on the 5.4, because they don't have one that could handle the torque. And if the Ford 5 speed can't handle a stock 5.4, you're telling me that it holds up to a blown, nitroused 5.4? I don't think so.
Come on guy, if you're gonna come here with this crap, at least do your homework and come up with a believable setup.

Only reason I did this is to see how smart L owners are about their trucks. My neighbor (TRUE STORY!!!) was thinking about getting a Mustang but really didnt have a clue as to what to do to it so I went on the internet and looked for some products. Just wanted to have fun and did this on one of their forms
Me and him were laughing pretty hard at the responses.
Anywho, I was thinking of doing those Mods to my truck. Some people pointed out some wouldnt fit with other products? Which ones will fit? (The ones starred are the ones I have so far)
Underdrive Pulleys
Cervinis Air Ram Hood (Functional)
ProTorque Torque Converter
*JBA HEaders*
*Gibson Exhaust*
Jacobs Electronis Igntion System
90mm TB
Granatelli MS Mass Air Flow
Superchip Inc Superchip
Air Aid TB Spacer
*Volant Cold Air Intake*
K&N Air Filter
PS : I hope nobody got offended by this

I think i know where you got that idea for the cig lighter nos switch. You must have seen Fast and the Furious Vin Diesel's character in that his switch for his nos was behind the Hazard light button he pressed it then the button slid out so that the nos button was there.

It looks like it to me. There are more pics of that engine someelse on here posted the link to it not sure who you were but heres the link to the other pics. http://65.68.63.130/tc_forum/Forum1/HTML/000392.html
