The SuperShaker comes with a 3.6" Pulley advertised at 8 PSI and 500HP at the crank.

I bought the entire setup for $5900 shipped from JDM Engineering. That included a tune for my 2010 since Saleen does not offer one for a 2010 with a SuperShaker.

JDM was nice enough to pull some strings at Saleen and have them build me a Supershaker kit with the updated 2010 Engine coolant and Heat Exchanger setup.

IT'S ALIVE!!!

It's pouring rain in Georgia so I am stuck in my garage with not much room to work but it was killing me to be so close and not running yet.

I finished up all the Wire Harness modifications, Vacuum and EGR mods, filled the Radiator up with Coolant and loaded the JDM tune.

I turn the key and .... VROOOM ... starts right up and idles perfect. No codes, no crazy noises or smoke and Vacuum Gauge is reading 20 just like it should. After making sure all looked good a couple of taps on the gas peddle adds to boost and my WideBand numbers are looking good. Of course real test will be on the road on a drier day.

All I have left now is to hook up the Heat Exchanger hoses, finish wiring the Water Pump, and fill the Intercooler with Coolant!

Just reminding you, I do not think I am alone in saying this, but we are going to need videos too whenever you get time someday .

I love those SuperShaker's too.

I just have to say though that the blue valve covers look out of place between the Gold body and the black supercharger setup.

Yeah, but in his defense the out of place blue valve covers seem to be a Ford "performance" thing....

Black covers may have looked better but I was going with the retro look with the shaker and Ford Blue.

Well it's been 6 days of working on it for a total of around 16 hours .... and the install is finally complete!! Mounted the Scoop and Trim Ring tonight.

I trimmed down and used the CDC trim ring on top ... The trim is around 1/4 wider than the Saleen trim so I think it finishes it off nicer.

Unfortunately it's been pouring rain all day in GA ... so hopefully the test drive is tomorrow!

I wired my pump Roush style .. to the CMCV connector that was no longer being used. Saleen has some crazy wiring scheme into the SJB inside the passenger side kick panel.

Yes it is drivable in the rain. However the Mustang does not get driven in the rain ... hasn't been in the rain since sitting on the dealer lot before I bought it.

The Shaker is designed to catch rain water before going into the intake and then drain it out the bottom. Since I don't do rainy day driving ... I didn't bother to install the drain hoses which makes for a prettier install ....

Oh ok cool. I always wondered about that. I wish I was lucky enough to have another car that I can switch between but for now my Mustang gets all weather duty.

BTW your car looks great with the SS on it ... AWESOME WORK

My driving is shared between the Mustang and my Jeep JK Wrangler and I add a motorcycle into the mix in the warm months.

The inlet on the scoop is baffled and there is a sock that fits over the air filter that is designed to shed any water that gets to it.
