2000 Lightning performance??
A friend of mine just got a 2000 Lightning. What a badass truck!
But were having a hell of a time finding mods for it. I assume the best way to go would be exhaust, MAF, and probably a smaller pulley to up the boost and a chip. Anyone got any ideas? Or know where to get stuff for em? Skyler

I can't help with the where to buy parts question,
But I was at the track today and there were 2 lightnings there. One was a silver 01 and the other was a beautiful blue 02. I believe they both had smaller blower pulleys and some sort of cold air induction setup. I only paired up against the silver one, and he whooped my ***. I had a bad launch and ran a 13.8 to his 13.1. Ouch The other ne (the 02) ran a 12.9 on street tires which made me about **** my pants. Then he slapped on a set of ET streets and ran consistent 12.50's. It's just not fair that a 5000lb truck can be just slightly modded and whoop the hell out of my car hey, atleast its a Ford! (and I'll own one someday )

MM/FF has a 2000 Lighting known as "the fridge". You should pick up some back issues.

Believe it or not the newer Lightnings have, I think around 20 more hp. A guy i know who also owns a couple stangs and a 427 ac cobra has one. And he was pissed as hell cuz his was a year earlier then those with the 20 extra horses. Heh, i got to ride it in before and he jacked the $hit outa it. I don't remeber if he had mods, but he had the tires spinning all the way into 4th gear. What is that $hit? hehe..i wish my car could do that from stand still position.
