Default Saleen Supercharger

Has anyone seen the install instructions for this thing? Their website does not have them abailable for download and I sent them an email, but got nothing back. I am just really curious what is involved with the install...

I know this isn't exactly on topic, but can someone help me out with this real quick?

I want to get the Saleen SC for my GT. Now I know I'll also need new fuel injectors and MAF. Should the injectors be 42 or 39 pound? And the MAF should be 90mm I believe, but correct me if I'm wrong.

And that's it, right? You need a new pulley for more boost, but I don't plan to do that right away. And the supercharger comes with a Saleen tune, as well, right?

Krazed, according to Saleen's website, everything needed for the installation are included in the package...

Marlin:

The jlt CAI can be had at jlttruecoldair.com. The SCT tuner that I bought came from mustangtuning.com. They had a deal for $375 that included the PC cable, which can run you (at another site) $40-$50 more. They will have it tuned if you like, but the JLT CAI sends along the tune for $75 more that is specific to that intake.

Jay at JLT is really good about speaking with his customers.

Hope this helps.

Instructions that come with the Saleen are not the easiest to follow, The kit does not include the #39 injectors or MAF.

For a couple different reasons, Saleen decided to release the first E cars as 06's, so my target date is now december.

Birdie:

Do you really believe that the motor and the internals will survive on this motor, and in an automatic, with the Saleen s/c putting down about 500rwhp?

We spoke previously about 430rwhp as being sort of the limit for the autos. Has there been enough testing to prove that the tranny and others hold out?

Also, if the car was to be putting down that type of rwhp, is the length of time at that level that screws up the engine or just the fact that you put that much on it at any time?

I am still looking to get the Saleen s/c and want to make sure enough tests are done so that I can breathe easy with whatever pulley I put in.
