When i had my Lightning i hit a best of 13.8, with exhaust only. If you can get it to hook it is high 13's stock.

Bring it over to my house so I can drive it and then I will tell you

I want one. I think the '01's are rated at like 380hp vs. 360hp for the 99-00.

Post some pictures

Bone stock they hit low 14s. You will run a 14.2 in stock trim
