Pretty quiet and sluggish for a Whipple - response from mine is instantaneous and definitely louder that that one.

But then, what do I know..................

I actually have a 01 lightning as well so im not some idiot acting like i know about them. Only mod on mine is a JLT intake.

How is the power on his not instantaneous???? I dont see it. He finally floored it at like 40 so it wouldnt spin.

Maybe its a shitty tune i dunno

Maybe you need to take a ride / drive in a properly tuned, built Whippled Lightning - then you'd know that even mashing the throttle at 40, everything happens immediately - not some gradual windup of the rpms.

As you said - maybe it's just the tune..................

Or maybe you don't......................who knows.

Nope - just stated that it's pretty quiet and slow revving (at least, in the videos) for a built / Whippled Lightning with that much boost - probably just the tune though (or maybe just a slow camera ????).

Anyway, a kill is a kill - nobody can take that away from you. I've seen the driver mod make a huge difference a lot of times.

I have to agree...sounded like a single stg port, or maybe a baby whipple?...or upper/lower stock eaton?...
Tune doesn't have too much to do with db levels really. SLuggish, I have to +1 on that.
