My Supercharged SVT Lightning Hits The Dyno: BIG POWER!! She Rips!!!

[@lenstage3982]

Silver wheels for the win!

[@Laffs23]

Silver wheels all day here. Black looks sinister but silver wheels really drives home the OEM plus look this things got with all the new mods.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Sums up my thoughts perfectly. Thanks for watching 🤙🤙

[@StoneColdStreamsOften]

Were Chris Sullivan guys, of course we watch within the first 30 minutes!

[@ChrisSullivan69]

🤝

[@sethmargadonna502]

💯!! I even take an early lunch to be able to watch it right away!

[@trentdawg2832]

Just put the playback speed on 1.75/2.00 on your setting then you can watch the full 1 hour video in 30 minutes without missing a beat…..thats just a lil trick i learned to do on these longer videos where i have other stuff i should be doing but at the same time i gotta get my you tube gearhead fix …..

[@jvvarietychannel1601]

​​@@ChrisSullivan69 get a Typhoon or Cyclone next time so you can put all that power to the ground! Or who knows....do somethin crazy like converting that Lightning to AWD!

[@grownforu]

​@ChrisSullivan69 black wheels all day bro

[@petetofani4896]

I like the silver wheels over the black. Soft open tailgate is a nice touch.

[@mcstruble]

Congrats on the recent sponsors! Can't wait to see your channel explode - you deserve it - incredible work ethic!

[@keepup07]

Silver wheels look amazing on that truck

[@JpJp-ks1cz]

Silver wheels are a must on that truck!

[@67stang721]

Didn’t realize how much those silver wheels pop until you put the black ones on. Silver for the win. Truck looks great, nice work Chris.

[@wavelandpd5]

When I saw the black wheels in the shop I got excited to see them on the lighting but after seeing them silver is much better!

[@RICARD01]

💯💯💯

[@jessecoram7453]

Agreed

[@jarrettroseboom2602]

I like the little touch of silver in all that black Chris.

[@cwnarron72]

Definitely

[@94ytelitn]

Silver wheels for sure! I have an '03 in sonic blue, 250,000 miles on her. Still makes me grin every time I drive it, constantly get compliments on it.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

That's so sick! Enjoy every mile. Original drivetrain?

[@94ytelitn]

@ChrisSullivan69 yep.

[@midnight347]

It's awesome you actually drove your sonic and didn't waste it like omg it's gonna lose value omg lol. Props to you brother. Too many of these kinds of cars were wasted

[@Mike-q8n6b]

Black on black looks good as always

[@MrCecilbag]

Nothing wraps up a long work day like a fresh Sully video. Best channel on the internet hands down. Love that Lightning. Makes me want one but I'm already insuring 8 cars and 3 bikes.......huge thumbs up

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Insurance is the worst lol. Thanks for watching!

[@randybooks]

black rims really made that thing look sick

[@Lethal_Venom]

Black wheels on it look much better. Those are some great numbers it put down.

[@toxsik0314]

Chris, if you notice on the final pull, up top it was knocking. You can see the puffs of smoke indicating detonation. Definitely lower the boost or have a degree taken out.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Yeah we pulled a degree out after that. Got a larger pulley on the way too!

[@paulhudgins5120]

Stopping before the dyno, the murdered out all black is so sweet, love that look. Ohh yeah, love this build. Love the idle chop, yeah she is NASCAR open header loud during acceleration, she is a tire melting a beast of a truck.

[@BNDAY79]

Not normally a fan of black wheels but that dos look sic!!!!

[@toddgarfield3521]

Silver wheels for sure. Against the black they really pop. Beautiful job on the Lightning.

[@connormatthew4733]

I had a cammed fox when I was younger. Off road H pipe with dumped flows, so I know what you mean about a little load on the highway lol. Loving the lightning/cobra content!

[@rangelminaya]

Now I have a video to watch today. Excellent. Thank you.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Enjoy!

[@rangelminaya]

@ i always do. Thank you.

[@michaelkearns3786]

I think Sonic Blue would look amazing on that intake tube

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Agreed👀

[@StevePeterson13]

Yes, finally black wheels!! 🙌🏻 Those look soooo much better!!! Now…stay with me here…paint the intake tube red to match the calipers. 🤩

[@tyleranderson6029]

Super excited to see the paint correction on this thing with the silver wheels. Gonna look insane

[@billconroy7647]

Buick Grand National is Dark Vadar's car. That black beauty SVT lightning is his truck. Fantastic work Chris!! Keep rocking it bud!!

[@ChrisSullivan69]

🍻

[@DrewPWebos]

That 3rd pull sounded visicious 😮👌👍 very nice!

[@rickhayes]

Silver wheels for my vote!! Truck looks fantastic Chris!!

[@PapawsDadillacOEMplus]

Silver wheels are just enough contrast that the truck needs in my opinion.

[@glossedauto]

Nice to see a MA company supporting! Maybe we'll see a 1620 Workwear sponsorship in the future.

[@aaronwortmann3777]

I’d keep the silver wheels, once you clean the engine bay and polish the blower and the tanks, I think sonic blue would look great on the intake pipe and tie in with the ford emblem on the grill. Badass truck man! Love this lightning series!

[@mrmilo1971]

That truck is truly Awesome!! When I watch I have to keep reminding myself……..I don’t like Fords, I don’t like Fords 😁😁

[@DrewCoronado]

My client took me for a ride last Sunday on his lighting and man it was amazing, good looking Lighting bro✅

[@ChrisSullivan69]

That's awesome!

[@ARLS1990-ww6zf]

Silver wheels for the win!! The murder vibe is much more common nowadays

[@joeklopp4842]

Sonic blue for the cold air intake tube. Black wheels. That's my vote, great video...

[@lukasztrzebinski3217]

Love my Brunt stuff! What a great company.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

The best!

[@petermessiersway9040]

Love there stuff !

[@carlcameron3524]

That black on black is so tuff💪🏾🇺🇸💯

[@G8rJimbo]

Had that tailgate lift on my Ram and twice, the rivet pulled out for the shock.

[@BradleyGregory25]

I say go for that black metallic you used on the Z06 splitter. Or a red to match the brake calipers. Either way, this baby is baaaad 👌

[@thefactor6909]

Intake Sonic blue might look pretty cool especially with a black truck and engine bay 👍🏻👊🏻 And oh man that truck looks wicked murdered out with the black wheels 😮 !!

[@StickShiftMuscle]

I’ve always wanted a lightning! For now i daily my cammed Firehawk

[@StevenGauthier-p3x]

Chris, I too am a black wheel guy, but the silver just looks better. I have black wheels on my Mustang GT, but my vote is Silver for the Lightning. As always, great video and the truck is amazing.

[@HeinzSmith-zx5ku]

Hey! Chris, don't give it the beans you will be buying tires all the time. Love the channel.

[@roguepowersports3576]

That thing is awesome. As far as the wheels I honestly like the black ones but the silver just give it that back in the day look. You had me rolling when you said the fuel mileage is around 12 mpg and not great. haha I'd love to see 12 mpg with my 03 f250 6.8 v10 and I'm fully stock.....I wish the one company that made superchargers for the v10 still did. 12 mpg ain't bad at all for 600 hp and 20 lbs of boost. I could just imagine how much fun that truck is to drive.

[@f2hatch]

Love the lightning. Big fan of OEM+. Getting to the point on it where the only thing I’d change on the exterior is I’d put back on a factory lightning rear bummer.

[@JIMFED63]

My 2004 fully built SRT 10 with forged crank and pistons and lots of other parts Dynoed at 880 horsepower at the rear wheels. It was a 6 speed and I moved to Florida and the traffic is horrible so I sold it for a new ZL1 Camaro. If I were still in Massachusetts I would have kept it.

[@nickmiller3791]

I vote for the black wheels! The truck is sick. I can only imagine what the exhaust sounds like live. Tone the exhaust down a smidge and what about a stencil of an American Flag on that intake to freedom!!!

[@j_chap82]

i live less than 10 minutes from Turbo Mike’s. Truck looks and sounds awesome!

[@ChrisSullivan69]

You probably heard me lol

[@justinavalos387]

The black wheels no questions asked 😮‍💨

[@mattspontiacta]

The SVT Lightning looks correct to me with the silver, maybe because they came from the factory like that. Black looks good too, but the silver looks just right. Nice dyno numbers for sure. 👍

[@PitSmok]

Yes, just checked your channel like 5 min ago, and then boom👍👊

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Happy day!

[@PitSmok]

​@@ChrisSullivan69 100% straight from work in the garage put trickle charges on my 3 motorbikes, covers up. Coz we got a first salt on the road here in UK. Then start cooking dinner and then Chris on big screen👍 silver wheels for me sir, its just old school, in 1995 I got a C class Merc 280, all black out apart from 18 inch Monoblock's in silver, till this day love that look👊

[@nickmacias9940]

Hey Chris, I own a 2003 F150 Harley Davidson 100th Anniversary with 2.6 Kenne Bell supercharger 18 PSI boost all custom built all forged parts ARP bolts / studs Shelby GT 500 iron block, CNC 'd Trick Flow heads oversized valves out here in California running 91 octane gas, my dyno tuner guy said he only maxed out engine timing to run with 91 octane gas at 18 PSI and that my engine knock sensor was all dialed into this range to prevent detonation and blow up the motor... So before you go to less boost larger size KB pullies talk to your Dyno Tune Guy ask him if at 20 PSI he dialed in the right max timing so as not to have any knock issues using 93 octane pump gas, cause any Tuner worth their pay grade would do that to protect your motor.

[@Tanner_Teves]

Maybe I’m in the minority here but I love the black wheels. Think it matches the black headlight houses you made really nicely. Also, +1 for Sonic Blue intake. That color is your motif at this point lol

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Lol for real

[@bigmattvee]

Hey Chris I think you should paint the intake tube red to match the calipers I think it will look sweet and brighten up the engine bay

[@tripled921]

I gotta say, the silver wheels just do that truck justice. The black look good. But I’m on the silver team.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Seems it's a pretty 50/50 split!

[@fjones1914]

29:40 I installed a shock to my 2013 F150 to dampen the drop of the tailgate years ago. Eze lift or something it's called. Works great.

[@2turbo_z609]

One vote for a bright silver intake tube! Would bring the KB, throttle body ram, and intake together as one cohesive piece sitting proudly on top... Just my .02. Nice work as always sir!

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Thanks man!

[@DB-be9wy]

Dat exhaust bro. You gonna get tickets running around town in that.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Probably lol

[@ChuckG603]

+1 for sonic blue, murdered is sick but I agree the oem plus silvers are what she needs

[@Daltonm234]

Chris Sullivan after work hits every time🙏🏼

[@ChrisSullivan69]

🍻

[@j.a.r.family2576]

We know you like OE QUALITY, with that intake tube lol I also like the black wheels. But i still support for sure.

[@xBlAcKX0XMaGiCx]

Hell Yea! Chris uploads- i watch!

[@ColinBerry-wn9qv]

Great video as always Chris. Both sets of wheels look great. If it was me I'd probably have summer tires on 1 set and winter grabbers on the others.

[@Kentz-go2jj]

That truck with 600hp is probably wild... before turning it down maybe throw some drag radials on it see what it runs on a dragy ...nice job

[@Kingdominspirations-y6t]

Love the video I’ve watched it twice already 🤦🏾‍♂️ but can’t wait to see the paint correction bro it’s going to look sick

[@jessecoram7453]

I was excited to see the black wheels on the truck but silver is def where it’s at! I would paint the intake black, red or blue on an intake gives me ricer vibes…

[@k9kenny1]

Amazing work on the Lightning.. she's a BADASS truck!

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Thanks a lot!

[@mst3884]

great vid as always chris. would love to see a full detail video - engine bay and paint correction

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Coming soon!

[@MagicMikesDetailing]

Love the Lighting, I think the black wheels look badass!!! But all my ride have black wheels. But I also get the silver OEM look too.

[@jonnyslc9110]

MURDERED OUT, freakin love it!!

[@ericpierce9413]

I also love Black wheels.. But for that truck the Silver hits!! Silver for sure:)

[@Kingdominspirations-y6t]

I’ve been waiting for this one brother it’s crazy how much better that thing sounds

[@Tony12020]

When Sully posts, I watch right meow.

[@DF-eg1ix]

"OCD level rising!" Too funny. I got same Toyos on my ST. Super sticky. Black wheels ftw

[@moparrdudee87]

Both set of wheels look 🔥

[@ryanwarren7757]

Sonic blue intake tube 1000% and gah damn those black wheels look so good

[@17blaqsho52]

Lightning gang ⚡️⚡️⚡️ Hell ya, that put down some power. Love all the Lightning content. 🤙 Nice touch on the center caps too, I say keep the silver wheels.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Appreciate it!!

[@ozzypawsborneprinceofbarkness]

That AC Delco supercharger oil is a great value. That's what I use in my supercharged Audis. I've been looking at Spintech mini mufflers for my S4. They're super compact and you can order them in SS.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Agreed!

[@harrispurnell2828]

I like the black wheels

[@AllensAutomotiveReparations]

Black wheels look sinister on that truck but the Silver ones are the clear choice they make it look clean and elegant. Either way its too damn cool

[@ChrisSullivan69]

🤙🤙

[@exoticartel6021]

Fuggin thing sounds AMAZING dude! And it looks incredible doing it! I got smiles per mile just watching this video! Cheers to that!

[@ChrisSullivan69]

@@exoticartel6021cheers! 🍻

[@bobherz6586]

Look into Varex for mufflers. They make the kind with valves so you can have them be mufflers that quiet it down or open where they're straight through. You'll likely need to fab something up but not a huge deal. I think I have a video on my channel if you want to hear something. 👍

[@flaS2k]

Vibrant makes universal resonators in all sizes. Something on the truck needs to be Sonic Blue. Black on black on black…..👍

[@AJYZF1R2010]

YESIR we need to get your numbers up brother it’s become one of my favorite channels

[@AnteekeBro]

A floppy disk 😂 Also, silver wheels just looks CLEAN

[@CarbonPower]

Silver wheels fo sho bro. She sounds amazing.

[@gouldnj]

I know that a loud exhaust can be a little irritating but I’d leave it alone. Just like our Corvettes, you spend the money on cams and headers and you want to hear them. Great build brother. BTW-Nitto NT555 G2s give amazing traction in my 580 shell hp Corvette.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Right on

[@MrCarCrazy]

I’m in the minority and I acknowledge that, but I have never heard a corsa exhaust that I didn’t find painfully loud. Having said that, resonated X pipes are a convenient way to add some muffling to an overzealous exhaust. Room is definitely a problem on the lightnings though. I’d just replace those “mufflers” with actual mufflers. When I drive my lotus on the highways I wear noise cancelling AirPods. But it gets maybe 1-2k a year on it.

[@doubler6592]

Best automotive channel. Let’s go Chris

[@markaffordablecustomsparento]

hell yeah man, nice to see you enjoying it.

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Things a riot

[@Starting-Life-Again]

Absolutely loving the black rims. It is over played for good reason.

[@SVTJD]

The black on black is fire. But if you want that OEM plus silver is the way. Looks and sounds insanely good. Is this a keeper? Probably not but I would keep everything if I had the room. Maybe it’s time for a pole barn.

[@kodiwhitaker1498]

Black wheels for the win...looks badass

[@RICARD01]

Nope

[@doomsday5316]

My dream Ford lighting build right here ❤❤❤👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@Huntinghogs]

I think silver would be a good look. It’s sounds much happier!

[@bernardowens1648]

Your exhaust note now is the sound we wanted for our muscle cars from our youth!!! Love it but it's a bit much.

[@bolisticbee]

Sonic blue for the intake tube, black rims.....my 2 cents. Awesome video as usual, Chris!! Edit: great numbers, too!!

[@jeffholt1138]

Black wheels for sure!

[@ncdozer3103]

Vibrant bottle resonators, the 12in ones can be cut down to 8in, I’ve put them pretty much everywhere and they really help take the edge off those v8’s

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Ill check them out thanks

[@AJYZF1R2010]

Black wheels look siiiick

[@axefire7]

Love that murdered out look. 🔥🔥
