I'm in Florence, Alabama but but may try and make it up there if it comes to it. Which saleen SC do you have?

 

400rwhp can def happen. It's gonna come with serious cams and head work.

 

If you want to keep the shaker then just go with a centrifugal supercharger, or a single turbo setup. The shaker can just sit on top of the intake, like in the picture shown, with either setup. Are you planning to stay with the stock engine or do a forged setup? If you are staying with the stock engine you don't want to go over about 500 rwhp. A turbo setup is easier on the stock engine than a supercharger because it doesn't have to produce the hp to turn the supercharger.

I happen to be a fan of turbos for street driven cars. Turbos offer several advantages over superchargers and can easily grow with you, if you decide to turn up the power. You should check into a single turbo kit before you make up your mind about going FI.
Give Jim Napier at 505-220-2988 TurboHorsepower.com a call and he can answer any questions about turbos. He also makes a very nice single kit.

Wow Florance, Ala. My Dad and Mom were from there. Spent many a summer at my Uncle's Store and cattle farm at Cloverdale, Ala. (between Florance and the state line. still have alot of relatives down there too. Know anybody with the last name of Young?

I had the VI Saleen SC'er with a 3.2 pulley. I do SCCA Autocross/Solo with mine. The car is fast but the Driver sure does suk.

 

I've still never seen a turbo rwd car hook on the street...

 

The more I read and learn the more I realize that 400rwhp n/a'ed is not an easy task.

If decide to stay N/A I may have to lower my expectations a bit.

 

Yes Sir, I know at least three sets of Young's in the Florence/Underwood/Cloverdale area.

No matter which set you are kin to you came from a good family. I know some of them better than others but I've never heard anything even close to bad about anyone of them.

As a matter of fact I wish we had more people like them in this area. They are very hard working, upstanding people that anyone should be proud of being related to.

Its a pleasure to meet you!!!

 

I'm dumb as a stump about superchargers and turbos so I have no opinion.

 

Thanks I have two cousins that I havn't seen in years (Larry and Ronnie) both lived in Petersville (I think). Both would be in their 60's. Also a Cousin Boyce Young who took over his Dad's Cattle business (My Uncle Ed).
If you come up to Brentspeed let me know I'll try to get over to talk somemore with ya.
