Sad I don't have the wallet to support it, it's on the wish list but will not happen.

No offense but numbers seem pretty low for a boosted 6.2...

Lightnings with a 5.4 can pull those numbers with a ported factory blower and a 6lb pulley. Those numbers are way low or the dyno isn't measuring correctly. Not trying to bash, but I hate to see the price that was paid for those upgrades considering the poor numbers.

...what are the numbers supposed to be? We read rear wheel horsepower on our dyno not flywheel which doesn't account for about 20% drivetrain loss etc. lets also take in consideration it's a base roush tune not our tune, pump gas, and the temperature being 90 plus degrees out and a bone stock raptor with no exhaust or anything so if they make 410 stock flywheel it's only making 325 to the rear tire than that's pretty much on. Also in regards to the lightning comment good luck getting any longevity out of a lightning with stock internals past those #s honestly, we like to keep trucks on the road not blow them up from running them on the ragged edge unlike a good amount of tuners especially in fl heat.

Ok so in that video where it made the extra 40 you don't think it had anything to do with the smaller tires they put on to make the higher #????

Nice job on the install, but Just regarding your comment I'd feel far more secure with a lightning motor vs a 6.2 boosted. Forged internals on a lightning... Pretty sure the only forged on a 6.2 is the rods

I agree only thing is with the lightning is that you can't go o high on the boost with the stock rods they like to fly out over 400hp sooner or later lol

Mine Lightning has made 400 hp/500tq at the wheels for several years now [since 2005]. It's pulled 16' trailer with a 90 GT Mustang in tow from St. Petersburg, Florida back to central Al. on the same tune. I've gave the truck several reasons to ''let go''. I'm sure running a Cadillac with a Northstar while dragging said car wasn't hard on her. If you're proud of those numbers and the customer is happy that's all that matters. I'm not familiar with the 6.2 or the trans behind them, but I'd hope both could take more than that. I just not impressed by those numbers for that much displacement with a supercharger.
