Worked on the Mustang for around 6 hours today. Got the SuperCharger installed, Heat Exchanger and Pump installed and the HT0 plugs gapped and installed. I also decided to rotate my Alternator housing because leaving the plug at the top looked like ***. All the pulleys and serpentine belt are installed.
All that's left is to finish up the wiring and run the Intercooler plumbing.
So far no issues and the instructions have been pretty much dead on. It's a little more complicated for my install because I am going back and forth between the 2010 VI.5 install guide and the 2005+ VI SuperShaker install since Saleen doesn't sell a 2010 SuperShaker.
Really good news is the SuperShaker fits the CDC Shaker Hole perfectly. The bad news is that the CDC trim will not work at all with the SuperShaker. This really sucks because the CDC finishes the underhood trim perfectly ... Saleen includes NO trim for underhood so it looks pretty crappy.

SWEET!!! i love the blue cam covers. i actually like the look underhood. i wouldnt mind popping the hood and seeing the shaker with the supercharger resting under neath it =). is the shaker really taking in air or just for looks?

Welcome to the SuperShaker club ! I always wondered how it would look in a 10. Trust me, your going to luve it ! I know I do. And the coolest part is when people ask you, "Wow ! is that hood scoop functional ?" and you get to go...YEEeeeeep ![Smile](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
True the only downfall is the cdc trim not fitting with the Saleen..I ended up using some rubber to augment it.
The blue covers look good. I need to find a extra pair, as I wanted to do a set of Red ones....

Sure. When I get it back, I will put up some pics. Its at a shop now having the glass corrected, and a rim. had a little sideswipe issue being cleared up.
As for the pumps, you may want to have a KB boost a pump installed. I did that, and it worked out great. I am putting down 442 @ wheels with my current setup.
I may get pumps later on, but meh. Happy with where its at.

You might want to put that on your future mod list..."cheap" (vs. a new engine) insurance against running lean, plus it gives you more fuel available if you want to crank up the boost later.
