I don't know exactly who wrote this attached article, but it appears Saleen does a bit of their own design and it is intercooled. Not that they didn't just take a whipple, reverse engineer it and slap on a Saleen tag, but I would look into getting one. The Series VI sells for $4999 from Cody at Saleen, who I taked to on Wednesday. He says they plan on shipping in mid-March. The kit includes everything you need, including the powerflash.

He said that no other modifications should have to be made (including the hood) and it should make the '05 throw out well over 400hp. I asked for the specs and he is supposedly sending them.

I am new to this and do not claim to have any knowledge, so PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong. I have just been researching which, if any, would be the best SC for my new '05, assuming it gets here before the '06 is available.

Ok that is not what the thread is about Kevin asked if he should sell them and the answer is very simple YES!!!

 

Amen brother. Bring it on......We like much power....

 

Just about the only mod you would need to do IMO....well, except for bigger brakes!

 

Did anyone catch at the bottom of the page from the link where Saleen says you can get this with an "Auto" tranny? I would love to do this but I know the auto will not handle that much power with out some strengthening?

 

Why wouldn't it? Shocked how many people think the auto won't hold an extra hundred horse....any proof of that or is it just a guess on your part?

Noticed that myself. I think there will be lots of us watching this one closely.

 

The Auto will be easier on the drive shaft and rear axle thats for sure but as far as auto trans issues I will chk with my man at saleen! If anybody has any specific questions please ask and I will try and get answers.

what size displacement blower? 2.3?

 

I would think you would have to rework the inside of the motor? Did he say if this would be necessary?

 

Charlie, I think you're ok pushing up to 8psi w/o having to reqork the motor... after that, you're looking at pistons.

for the others asking about power gains, a screw type blower at 8 psi on a 300 hp engine should produce about 475 hp at the crank. I'm thinkin' these will put down over 400 on the ground.

 

Gosh Dang!!! That makes me all warm and fuzzy! Gotta get one.

 

I have not got a Response to your questions yet from saleen! They probably got swamped with calls after this pic was posted! Just wanted to let everybody know I have not forgot about this forum.
