Saleen gives the hp at the block. I also got the "475 hp" upgrade and I dynoed my car at 378rwhp. The stock Saleen tune is very conservative and my car actually runs a little on the rich side. I have been trying to find someone who can tune my car but it is difficult because it is a Saleen tune. I am also trying to find a way to modify my intake because the new Saleen intake tube is oval not round. I had to box up my Steeda CAI and use the stupid factory airbox again.

Saleen tune is way disapointing. If you can't get it dynoed, get the JDM tune (and some new tires )

i had to use saleens tune due to the fact that there isnt a dyno for 5 hours in any direction from here[:@].
how do you like your shifter? that is going to be my next purchase

Exactly what i ahve been trying to say. Thank you for bringing some proof on the subject, and showing that im not " WRONG " in every post i make saying stock blown saleens make less then 450 hp. Yeh i have also heard the saleen tune is a bit on the conservative side, im sure a dyno tune will get everything outta it.

love the shifter, I need to adjust it though. I made it super tight and now it takes a little work getting into gear. Power shifting takes some concentration. just pay attention when you put it in and use lots of grease...I skimped on that too which pisses me off. I was too impatient to waitso I did it in my garage at like 10 o'clock pm without getting the proper stuff

I dont see why you would have to have ford retune it to stock. You should just be able to load your jbm tune in there as is.
