Because they make a Saleen SR

Quote:

With an energizing 505 horsepower from its 4.6 liter centrifugal Saleen series V “Twin Screw” type Supercharged V-8 engine and a Saleen Racecraft designed independent rear suspension, the SR takes curves with the same force as it does straightaways.

Saleen

the sr is my all time favorite stang...lol i wonder why

the s/c's that come on the saleens are roots type superchargers, ive never seen a saleen or any kind of ford product come stock with a vortech. if you go on the saleen web site it even tells you that the E model comes with a eaton roots type s/c.

Yea ..I just heard that was a 99 S-351 for sure from someone else but that is what I heard so dont know if its total truth yet either . o wells

Well I saw the sticker and it matched the number on his car plus he bought it off a Ford executive so I am real sure, it is, what he says it is. This is like his 5th Saleen he has owned so it is unlikely he got ripped off.

Side note: Are you goona get that Stang to run better than a 13.8 this year? Crips man!

hahaha hell no I gonna make it move more than a 13.8 unlessss by some wierd chance it drops a tenth or something with its current mods and my driving but I doubt it will go anywhere as it stands. I start the fire academy soon and that means qutting work which means no income of my own so I cant mod the car and cant afford to break it.

After I get a job as a firefighter if all goes as planned I will build the motor of my dreams..

331 single turbo/intercooler
