Awesome car. Can you give any more infor, like details on the installation? I'm also curious about what kind of mechanical experience you have and what kind of tools and/or special considerations are needed, such as can you do it in your garage or do you need a lift. Also, did you dyno before and after, or just after? And what about before and after track times. As for your question about what you're gonna do next, I would suggest you leave the exterior alone from here on out. I personally like a more sleeper type look, let the engine do the talking instead of too much bling. Also, I didn't notice if you said whether you have a stick or an auto. If you have a stick, the 3.55's are pretty much the best compromise for street / strip, but if you have an auto, you could consider going with 3.73's. That'll wake things up a bit. And you may like the exhaust as it sounds now, but there's nothing that sounds as good as a Mustang with Flowmaster's, in my opinion anyway.

Good luck with the car. I'm giving you two thunbs up.

Thanks for the feedback. I was an auto mechanic for 16 years. It took me about 5 hours on the ground no lift needed to install and there were no special tools required other than an air inpact for removing the alternator pulley and I needed to buy a fuel line disconnect kit. I did dyno before and after. Before was 268 RWHP and after was 379.5 RWHP with 390 Torque that was with the supercharger 39# injectors and an SCT Xcal II starter tune. Then I added a Diablo MAFIA because the MAF was pegging at about 5200 rpm and a high flow air filter. Then had it dyno tuned and got 412 RWHP and 400 Torgue. No track times but I have a G-Meter and I get 0 to 60 times of 3.9 Seconds and quarter mile at 11.8 seconds. Oh and it is a stick with a saleen short shifter and roush rear springs and scoop. I also removed the exhaust and disected it, I cut them open from the top then opened up a baffle and welded them back together so they sound sweet now and it didn't cost me a dime. I also have a GPS driven speedometer to test top speed and calibrate my speedo so far I have had it up to 173 mph and it still had a lot more but I ran out of nerve and room.

Welcome to the forums- the car is a beauty- if you're interested in getting into a club- you can always start your own chapter of an already existing club (hint-hint)

Hello I am new to this forum and wanted to say hey. I have a satin silver Mustang GT. I just installed the Saleen Supercharger kit in it, and all I can say is WOW. The install took me 5 hours it was very simple. I live in Charlotte
NC and am looking to join a car club, any ideas?
