Oh, I agree, but 375 is knocking on our door. How they get it to the ground is another story. And they did not state the torque spec.
I know it is a heavy luxury car - with a smooth (slushy) 6 spd auto. But I like to keep the thumper V8s strictly as an American advantage. And yes, I know this is not the case - so I will choose to live in denial.
Just like the Super Bowl. If the Colts can't be there, then thank God someone, anyone can knock the Pats out and I will be happy (and I am)...
If I am going to lose a battle, I would rather it be to a GM or Chrysler - not an import.

Alright.....
The Vortech/Paxton kit is sold..... Also sold the delete plates and trying to sell the Kenne Bell Boost-A-Pump.
Going in this week is (get ready Darrell):
-Saleen VI blower
-Saleen 3.4 or 3.2 pulley (dyno will tell the tale here)
-Saleen water pump pulley
-Saleen upgraded heat exchanger (double the cooling capacity of the stock Saleen unit)
-Saleen Extreme inlet pipe
-Steeda cold air filter and shroud
-complete GT500 fuel system
And I'm likely swapping my hood and (what's left of my) shaker for a '07 hood from a donor car. Either a Cervini's hood or a 3d Carbon scoop will come in the spring.
Hoping for 450 rwhp / 450 rwtq, but we'll see.

No forged guts for me yet. What I'm doing is still below the Stage 4 system that uses the 3.0 pulley..... I may be able to get the numbers I want with the 3.4 pulley, we'll see. The main things I'm doing are the heat exchanger and GT500 system. The exchanger should be a nice addition and the GT500 system is for sure more reliable than the KB piece. The Extreme inlet and new Saleen H2O pulley are just for kicks.
