We dyno tune a stockish bolt on lightning. Showing you accurate gains! Follow us on instagram @alex3lizondo @modulatemotorsports #svt #lightning #ford #dyno #customtune #sct #dynojet
Waiting to take my 02 L with new forged bottom end, stock heads cams. Everything. Just bored .020 over and then I bought maf sct ba 3000, 6lb lower, wide band, and fluidyne heat exchanger. I’m hoping to make around 400. I do plan on getting blower ported soon too though and headers. I also need the sct x4 hand held tuner lol just waiting on more money
First video I’ve found on RU-vid detailing the basics of tuning one of these trucks from the start (fueling then timing). Thank you. Obviously most of your knowledge comes from experience, but any recommended literature for someone who hasn’t tuned before (i.e.- myself 😑). I understand the basics from reading, but want to educate myself about the specifics about my ‘01 Lightning so I can slowly street tune it myself (didn’t know the specifics about the PCM strategy that pulls timing at an IAT2 threshold; looking for more specifics like that). Thanks in advance. Liked and subscribed.
Good stuff. This is the best time with bolt ons. The truck is most enjoyable. 6lb lower and the larger reservoir makes a nice difference. The stock Eaton is a true pleasure to drive wirh great throttle response and predictable control. The kenne bell makes a bit more power on pump gas wirh 19psi but imo ruins the feel of the truck.
Just seen your video.. I'm doing a lighting engine swap into my 97 f150 with t56.. plan on TB, 6lb lower, MAF, LONGTUBES AND 3 INCH DUALS with x pipe..what do you think it will do? Do you do Mail order tunes or just dyno? Just a street truck.goel is 400/500 rwhp My trick came with a 4.6 5 speed .it's a 2wd. I'll be using the stock 97 4.6 computer
Question: How do you get The Lightning to push 700 HP? Because that's the ballpark im looking for mine. Cammed? Smaller upper pulley? Bigger lower pulley? Ported Engine? Any other reasonable mods?
1: money 2: 2.9 whipple supercharger with upgrade cooling system /bigger throttle body Long tube headers Cams Upgraded heads (ported),springs,bigger valves All forged internals Upgraded rotating assembly Bulletproof trans with torque converter and rear end
Throttle body is a waste of money if you want easy power on a lightning. All you need is a #4 lower pulley, spark plugs, cold air intake and a Dyno tune.
