I finally got to the track after 2 failed previous attempts. What a blast! Adrenalin has to be the best "juice". Made 5 runs, 2 good ones, 3 stunk. Broke traction, tached, shifted, and then it grabbed on one run. Had NO BOOST on 2 back-to-back runs. A non-supercharged Lightning will run about 16.2@87MPH or so. I know someone else posted this happening to them too. Have to call SVT and see what causes that. Anyway...the best run was a 13.573@101.08. Other numbers were:60':2.048, 330':5.699, 1/8:8.724@81.19, 1000':11.344. Oh, on the second run with no blower about 1/3 of the way through I kept letting off and hitting the gas and after about 5-7 times the blower came in, helluva difference 100+ HP makes . Gonna hafta go again .

Hey 4D,
I had that problemand had posted it here. Haven't been to the track to try again. If SVT has anything to say on it, let us know. Don't forget to check your reservoir for your intercooler. I lost a whole reservoir in 2 weeks now, seems to be getting worse.

the repair manual says the bypass valve actuator may not be closing or sticking, and to also check the stop adjusts.for 20 bucks the lightning supplement to the repair manual is a worth while investment.

 

Thnx GP. Checked my resevoir right after your original post PFA, been full every check.
