Going to begin laying out my setup in the Lightning .

Output Converter : I dunno yet , recommendations PLEASE ( I am using a OLD school Alpine unit from like 1995 now lol )

line driver : PLD1 or tld66

Doors : TI6 Elites

Bass Cube : TI finish

RDDP : Possibly .

Amps : 2 - TI400.2

Subs : either xs10's or ti10's

I wish to use the Stock Headunit for the stock appearance of the truck . And I hope I am able to hide most of the gear under the seat ..

I am either going to do 2 10" xs subs Or 2 10 " ti Subs

and yes one on each side . I have had the xs's in the truck since the middle of 2007 and felt like a change LOL . may just give them a little more power .......

from some recent experience, make sure you use a metric ass ton of sound deadening on the doors. the mids need the back wave separated to really make their midbass work.

and even though they PLAY down to 40hz, cross them over a bit higher. the neo magnets can get hot and they loose their magnetizing ( i will post pics of my mids, "demagnetized" and "new"

I vote that you use the Ti subs.

Then you can sell me the XS subs.

Gotta love the SY/TY!

I raced a Lightning in a TY a few years back, he held his own... for a bit.

Great full size truck though. Though I'm a GM man, I do like the ford FS trucks.

Corrected.

All wheel drive
SY, 0-60 in 4.7 sec
TY, 0-60 in 4.9 sec
Basically an S15 and a Jimmy on steroids.

a good friend of mine had a syclone with some upgrades, super quick and awd - badass!
a good friend of mine has a lighting with some upgrades, ridiculous and scary fast!

i am partial to the blue ovals, i drove a rather fast ford everyday for five years, but both the syclone and the lightning a really cool trucks IME/IMO.
