    Raptors by no means hall ass.

    Well i was talking to the guys at ford and they said they stopped producing the ford lightening and they said the new fast truck they came out with is the 2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. It looks pretty fast. They said they were really fast. They do have v8 5.4L with 320hp and 390 Torque. So I will believe that they are pretty fast. lol

              No one makes 1000hp kits for the 2.3, but if you get on the SVO forums you can learn a lot about how to make a potent 2.3 turbo.

                what?

                No, they made a race version of the raptor. The 6.2L is old news - been planned for the truck since it was released. Matter of fact, the 6.2L is going to make its way into the 2011 F150s as well. Doesn't make them a race truck.

                    yeah thats what i thought this guy said that they made a street legal version of the racing raptor with 411hp same engine though http://www.vodcars.com/fastlanedaily/episode/fld_20091104

                    yeah the raptor is a f-150 i knew they were gonna put a 6.2L in the 2011 raptor f-150s... they say its the street legal version of the racing raptor and its got 411hp but i could be wrong
