Ct.TOPGUN said:Lightnings are very responsive to mods at first. It takes very little to get them into the 12s. As you try to go quicker the mods get more expensive, and the gains smaller.
On a stock block mid 12s is a good goal. Many push harder and run quicker, but at great risk. To go mid 11s or better a full buildup is needed. For a 10 sec truck expect to invest approx 20K. 9s may not cost a whole lot more, but upping the boost and/or nitrous makes breakage a big possibility.
I am spending about 5K this winter to get down into the mid 10s. To do it legally (no cage yet) and reliably (BTS Trans) I will still need to invest another 7K or so.
Enjoy your truck with a good tune and a 4# pulley for the best bang for the buck. God help you if the mod bug bites!
