S-281 = N/A
S-281SC = Supercharged (Series IV)
S-281E = Supercharged (Series V) + suspension upgrades (Think 03 Cobra)

This is for the new edge saleens anyway.

wha?

RE: saleen question

I thought the s281e had forged internals and are extremely rare?

I know the new ones that came out do. As for being rare, for the most part all saleen's are rare, up to 05 they only made 1000 or so and I the 2006 are only 1500 with maybe 100-200 being E's

RE: saleen question

www.saleen.com

The S281 (99-04) is 320 RWHP and is true to the dyno it is tuned on.

The super charged models are the S218-SC Supercharged and S281-E Extreme.

The 99-04 model years are 400 RWHP on the Supercharged and S281-E are 500+ RWHP.

The convertables weigh more and will be a little slower but the are freaken mean *** machines.

I am not sure of the late models before the 99's and saleen has all the new 05+ on there current website.
