The Beast Is Back, Woo Hoo.....

WOO HOO

What Builder do you know that swings by your Job to show you
"Your New Lightning". Of course I wasn't there (&@$%*@(^$(*@$#%*@^$
but everyone else got to see it (LOL)

(was on one of my late lunches, oops.... sorry Sal)

WOW does it feel GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREAT to
be back in the saddle. AND MAN OH MAN DOES THAT SADDLE
FEEL LIKE IT'S MOUNTED ON A WHOLE NEW HORSE, WOO HOO....................

Hats off to Sal and PSP, this thing has far past all my
expectations already, (Bow) (Bow) (Bow)

You can not tell the motor was ever out (Thumbs Up)

The frigging thing idles UNBELIEVABLY SMOOOOOTH
(Thumbs Up)
(idling at 500 RPM smoother than I have ever felt it before)

The Power is just like WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
(1/4 throttle and it's all over the road) (Thumbs Up)

The Magnum Powers is just music to my ears,
YOUR A GENIUS CHARLES, this S/C is just simply amazing,
(Bow) (Bow) (Bow)
The Sound, the Power, the sound, the response, the
sound, the torque, the sound. HOLY I NEED A NEW BOOST
GAUGE LIKE TOMMORROW BATMAN......
AND EAR PLUGS : o )
Finally I got to actually drive and hear it, and man oh
man is the difference night and day, WOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
My Hats off to you Charles, Magnum Powers ROCKS
(Thumbs Up) (Thumbs Up) (Thumbs Up)
(cant wait for the first WOT, WOO WOO WOO WOO)

As for this Factory Tech Forged Billet Total Domination
Converter OH YA, THIS IS THE REAL DEAL BABY
(Thumbs Up) (Thumbs Up) (Thumbs Up)
WOW is this a whole new experience ; o )
It's a totally new truck, and driving it is a totally new feel,
I LOVE IT.
THANK YOU GREGG, THIS IS WAY MORE THAN MY WILDEST EXPECTATIONS,
Woo Hoo.........
And wow does this converter work exactly as stated,
even in ice cold 30 degree out there, (on bald F-1's) I was actually able to stall it to over 2500 RPM.
WOW THIS GOING TO BE AWESOME

Now the REAL SHOCKER
The frigging exhaust is soooooooooooooooo quiet, "you
would not belive it" The Bad Boy PSP Custom Headers are
going into Custom Made Hi Flow Cats, 3" x 2-1/2" and then
back into the STOCK Cat Back. ""YES STOCK""

WOW DOES THIS MAKE FOR ONE AMAZING EXHAUST SYSTEM
You can totally enjoy the whine of the Magnum
(and we all know I Looooooooooooooove my Whine, AND
NOW IMPROVED)
And even when you hit it, it's just this great sound that
I'm never quite heard before. So so much quiter than I
expected, AND WOW IS THAT A RELIEF.

AMAZING JOB SAL, THIS WAS A VERY DELIGHTFUL SURPRISE

Thank You Sal
Thank You Denny
Thank You Charles
Thank You Gregg

Now I have to shut up, post a few Pictures
AND GO FOR ANOTHER RIDE.............................................

If I read your post correctly Rob, you seem kind of happy about how the truck turned out. Could you tell us how you really feel?

Sorry peeps the pic's came out like real crap tonight
BUT WHO CARES,
I'M DRIVING MY LIGHTING, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

THANK YOU SO MUCH SAL AND PSP,
AND RACE TESTED, MAGNUM POWERS, and FACTORY TECH

WE DID IT, we saved 100% on the build
The truck idles and sounds just like a sleeper,
EXACTLY WHAT WE WANTED
The Power is just sick (and only on a 14 degree break in tune)
and it drives more comfortable than EVER before

AND I'M GOING TO GO DRIVE IT AGAIN RIGHT NOW : o )

That's great Rob, I'm very happy for you. I am surprised on the exhaust though, because I tried LT's, 2 high flow cats, and a factory cat-back twice before; sounded very bad, like a boat! My wife even came up to me asking what was wrong with the truck, sounded very funny! But if yours doesn't that's awesome!

Congrats Rob on your beast.

Guys I guess we will have to wait for Rob to but some mile on his beast and then have it retuned. And then get tuned for NOS then we will really know how Rob feals about his beast.

Now go Rob but some mile on your beast.... I can't wait to see your dyno numbers.

I say 550/650 on motor and 700/900 on NOS.... Your gonna see Robs taillights Gator....

My hats off for Rob and Gator for their new beasts.
