Im thinking about getting a Apten ported blower for my 99 lightning and was wondering if its worth the money and if anyone has had one and liked it disliked it stuff liek that. The one great thing about them is they look stock so u could maybe get away with warranty work at the dealership if need be. Thanks guys

Apten, LFP, Outrageous, and REM all do Lightning blowers.
PSP should "stock" the Apten units.
They basically cut a new hole in the case, clean everything up which flows more air thus making more power. There is a lot of other stuff they do that results in the power gain like lowering air temps, but it basically adds a little boost without pullying.
how much time does it knock off the quarter?
That totally depends on your other mods.

To be honest, I really don't think there is any track gain with it. Not that I have seen anyway. The handfull of threads out there don't describe conditions and most were comparing a this year run to a last year run.:shrug:
i know there are mph gains to be made
brian. is also the best tuner in the midwest.!!
how could a 30 rwhp gain not result in track gains?

Well most people don't actually gain that to the wheels. That is SAE corrected or STD for that matter. At that that's usually just peak power so it really wouldn't gain much. I will say the locals who used it over here didn't gain any track time.
Will the rods hold up?
That depends on how much boost you run.
As long as you don't go crazy, like running 15-16lbs from a KB on a stock block.
Is the factory 8lbs?
Yes.
Talk to the man in the post above you.
