yea hah i had to come u made it so convincing. concerning that vid, i can try, its terrible quality, it was done on my laptop and my webcam messed up so it sped the vid up, but i can try and post it and see what happens. as for my truck, i drive a 2003 ranger edge edition v-6 3.0. the engine is all stock, cept i took the restricter/silencer out of the intake, did actually notice a lil difference. my baby is all black i.e. body, head/taillights, wheels, interior which is what the sig is about. im all about custom lighting, i have a pilot blue underglow kit and pilot stobes in the top corners of the windsheild and in the grill, one 9 inch green led strip in each headlight and under each footwell under the dash. one 1.5 inch green led strip in the center air vents and a green dome light conver. all the leds are from oznium.com(great for all lighting needs, very cheap yet great quality). i have many great plans for this beaut, hope to see what everyone thinks

Sounds like my trucks twin! lol. Well, guess we are the custom lightning guys then! If you ever want discounted Streetglow direct then let me know cuz im sponsored and get cheap equiptment. Do you get tickets for the balck taillights where you are? I dont want to do mine cuz here the cops are jumpy about anything, including my flowmaster super 44 exhaust.

I know you got plans for dropping the truck but do you have any performance mods planned?

well right now i have translucent black lights in the back and jus a lil smoke on the front and thats 100% legal. but i had spraypainted my oem tails black and they showed thru perfect at night but were still too dark. i wanna go back to oem and get vht on them. no i havent gotten ticketed for them but they were too dark for inspection. thats purtty retarted bout ur exhaust, they tolerate a lot in texas, cept for underglow haha i get lucky a lot tho for mine. sounds cool for the discount deal ill keep it in mind.
atm performance wise i have a cheap lil cherry bomb exhaust but i wanna go with some flowmasters or magnaflows later on, maybe some borlas if i can find some nice ones, but ima go with a y pipe and either go all the way back or have them come out in front of each rear wheel. i want to drop an svt in it like the lightning bolt ranger, that would b wayyyyyy sick, with and upgraded supercharger and an aluminum block with a shift kit, or i wanna drop in a rousch V8

damn man! or plans sound the same with the lightning bolt idea! haha. And you will find on this forum that magnaflow blows and flowmaster is the ****! I highly recommend the super 44! Great rumble and quiet while cruising. Mine is still y-pipe as well. It comes out lightning style before the right rear tire. And the only way you can run the passenger side exhaust to the lightning style is if you relocate the gas tank since its in the way. Its good to just have to y-pipe so you can keep some compression in the pipes anyways. for my future engine id like to get a ford racing crate engine. Oh course ive got to either keep dreaming or just win the lottery so I can get on it! LOL

o well i didnt think of the tank that makes sense. i was thinkin bout buildin the engine piece by piece, itll b cheaper that way and itd b a lil more custom. it wouldnt b exactly the lightning bolt but itd b close with a twist or 2 haha

yeah, that sound like a good plan. That way you can also say you built it from block to piston!

yea i love burnouts, i used to do em a ton till i got new tires, ive only done a few on them. thas impressive on that 327, i wish i woulda done that haha. yea i know bout the cash thing, jus right now its hard to even buy the lil things bc of a shitty job and that can only cover rent. but im workin on it, waitin on my income tax, im wantin to get lambos with it and maybe some headers = ). i wish i could get my vid to upload of that burnout, its not great bc its reallllll fast, but theres a ton of smoke, i agree with the ad deal that would b sick
