Cervini CT-5000?

Does anyone have one? Or even seen one? I'm considering buying a non s/c'd version, then putting a whipple on it. What do you guys think?

i think the ct-1000 is the one your talking about and is a great deal and basically a new body style L(minus the s/c)

Waste-o-money. You might as well buy the saleen S331.

Well the saleen is second on my list, but I have always loved the concept lightning, and since that isn't coming out, this is the closest thing to it. Also, I like the fact that the Cervini truck is a regular cab as opposed to the saleen being a supercab. It's lighter, and looks better for this kind of truck IMO.

actually just checked their site and i think your best option would be to get the body kit its 6k then lower the truck and put a s/c on it

That sounds good, quick question though. How much do you think it would cost to get all of the parts painted, since they don't come painted and that's part of their package?

Does anyone know?

Also, I need some opinions from you guys. Would you think it would be a better idea to just supercharge my truck? I have a Roush Stage 1 Supercrew. Pics are in my gallery. The main reason I want the cervini truck is because of the regular cab since it's better looking IMO, and also lighter/faster.

depends on where you go and how much prep work and massaging the parts need. could run cheap like 1200 or could be upwards of 3000.. it really all depends on how mach prep the parts need

You guys actually think that is a good deal?
"Bring your F-150 to Cervini's and our trained profesionals will paint and install all components of the CT-1000 Body Kit (part # 9044) including: painted Door Handles, Tailgate Handles, and Side Mirrors. We also lower your truck (3" front, 5" rear), install functional Side Exhaust, and Cervini's Custom 22" Wheels and Tires."
Copied from their website.
If that's true.....who would spend 19.5k just to have all that done?

Does anyone have any idea what kind of 1/4 mile times I'd be looking at with this truck with a whipple?
