? for Mike about Superchip for 02 HD Screw

Mike,
Do you have a program for the '02 Harley Screw? If you do, will the chip make that much of a difference with the supercharger?

Hi BigIke,

Yes, we do have Superchips for that vehicle, and yes we do pick up significant power gains, just like we always have in the Lightnings. Figure a minimum of 30+ HP.

A vehicle having a supercharger on it does not mean that we cannot make nice power gains; in fact, in many cases it usually means just the opposite.

Basically, the '02 supercharged Harley is pretty much a 4-door version of the Lightning that has been detuned, down to 340 hp from the Lightning's 380 HP.

Congratulations on your Harley model, & please feel free to give us a call to go over the details!

Hi hirting,

Just as the last poster mentioned, Ford is not goign to allow the Harley model to have as much power as the Lightning, as that would hurt Lightning sales and anger a *lot* of Lightning owners who bought them for their exclusivity and because they have the absolute highest power output of any F-150.

However, nobody should worry about that, as the Harley model responds very nicely to modification, and can easily be made to make as much power as any Lightning can make!
