[QUOTE="pirate air, post: 2169, member: 27"] True, I'd rather wait and see what/if Hellion comes up with, if I was looking turbo and making a bunch more power. But I don't see the point in doing something like that to the Raptor. It's the wrong platform imo.The trucks heavy, has a soft suspension, rolls on 35's, and is shaped like a brick. It would never be reliably fast enough on the street to compete with lightnings or modded diesels. Who knows how the suspension would react off road due to all the extra weight up front, if it actually did get driven off road. I suppose that truck is cool in its own unique unpractical way and more power to the people that are looking for that sort of thing. It is their money to spend after all. With that said though, I would like to eventually do cams and headers to mine. Somewhere close to 500hp at the crank would be a good stopping point in my mind. The rest of the money can go into the suspension. [/QUOTE]
