Best Superbowl commercial ever. The icing on the cake would've been had the Packers made it to the SB and won. The card would've been signed Brett.

Paxton 2200 HO

The bad..
Getting greedy; looks like he changed or altered the tune. 480rwhp/431tq

The ugly..
Motor broke loose.

Good stuff. Loved the game....especially the outcome!

Eli has now earned a little respect from me.

Just one pic and a little spec blurb?

Not an option until they release pricing info and dyno results.

btw, did you say the shaker edge to hood was 11.5"?

Sounds great Tom!

Since I have you here...
I'll ask again (), in retrospect, did you find it safe and acceptable to run the Vortech without an I/C assuming a safe tune?

Let me say this...... Brent spent alot of time on my car last year making sure the tune was correct.... I know he fouled atleast one complete set of sparkplugs while on the dyno doing so. I ran the system from April until October, which included a couple of trips to the dragstrip. And, I don't baby my car as far as rpms go..... I typically hit redline in the first couple of gears each time I drive it. All this being said, the car ran flawlessly and performed very well overall. Would I do it again? Yes.... assuming I could better control my mod habit because eventually I did add the 'cooler and went with a smaller pulley for more boost and power.

The Vortech/Paxton kits are great and trouble free in my experience... just make sure your tune is spot-on and ensure you only run 93 octane.

Well I got some info...

Hello George,

The shaker supercharger was designed for your engine and hood, therefore it will fit as is. We have not released the kit yet, but our engineers say you will see a minimum of 475 HP at the wheels and 510 HP at the crank. We should have exact release numbers in the next month or so. The pre-released price quote is $6499.99 and is expected to be available between April and June of this year. We will be offering install here in the Irvine facility where your PJ was built. I have a list of customers who want to purchase the shaker supercharger when it becomes available. Please let me know if you would like to be added to the list or if you have any other questions. Have a great day!!

Sincerely,

Spring Cook
Saleen, Inc.

Good deal Brian! Since we're talking mods, here's what I'm doing this week:

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 Bill ):

-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.
