Ok, i've was bitten by the mod bug some time ago, the affects never wore off. I have only had my truck for 15 days and it has almost 700 miles. How do you people drive your Lightnings with so few mods for so long? I am wanting to get to around 3,000 to 5,000 miles and then start the modding. The waiting is killing me.

 

Self control and a lack of funds.... I still have my 1994 lightning also and I only installed a bassani cat-back on it because the other muffler failed. Timing has never been touched. I think having my blown stang at the same time helped a little too. I just turned 4500 miles on my '02 and like you I am starting to want to mod the truck. Starting with a cold air chip, pulley, etc... are all in the future. Looking for the cold air first any ideas?

well then what are you waitin' for???
Let the mods begin

 

Don't wait too long. My 02 has 7100 miles on it and I am just now adding the chip, pulley combo. I wish I had done it back at about 1000 miles because I will probably be selling the truck at around 10,000 miles later this year. DON'T WAIT, MOD NOW!!!!

 

hey 2020is I was going to do the home link mod to my 2002 blue L also was it a direct plug in mod or where there any modifications... what was the cost of the visor if you do not mind me asking and what was its actual application? did it come off of an expedition I mean

 

Ya what are you waiting for. I had my 02 less than a week and it was already chipped for the first time (now on 4th reburn). By week 4 the Cool Air Induction, by week 6 the Boost By-Pass, and Crankcase Breather, this week it was the new Dial-Ur-Boost Upper Pulley and a fresh re-burn on the Diablo. Next will be probaly the Single Blade Throttle Body and a 2" lowering kit. Just hit 4,000 miles this week. WHY WAIT ???

 

Why wait........I had 900 miles on mine when it went in storage for the winter. I modded all winter long and by the first race of the year I was running 12.5's

Once you get the Mod bug there is no stopping it. Its like our version of crack we are all addicts hehe .

 

svt4rd: got any pics of the two lightnings together?

 

When I bought my 01 I had it on the dyno getting a baseline with less than 250 miles on it. I was back the next weekend with my chip & filter. No time wasted over here

 

Tell me about it, that is excactly why my previous truck ended up being a supercharged V6.

But if all of y'all are wndering why i'm trying to wait I want to wait for the brake in peroid then I intend to dyno the truck in stock form and go from there. I am also trying to build my bank account back up from the monster down payment I had to make to get this truck, which thats going to take a few months.

 

Hey good things come to those who wait. I waited 13 weeks for my rims and i couldnt be happier . As for dynoing the truck stock then again with the mods that sounds like a good idea as you can actully see what the mods have done for you. Also im sure alot of people including me would be interested in what numbers you get.
