All you guys with SCs....
Did you use the tune that came from your dealer, or did you go to a local shop and have it dyno tuned?

What kind of issues did you have with the JDM tune? I used the stage 1 and stage 3 tune from brenspeed and had no issues with either one. Brent worked with me to get my air/fuel right.

RE: sc reliable?
I hear nothing from the whipple unless I put my ear on it. the 38lb injectors drown out any noise it makes at idle. I don't hear the whine unless the bypass valve closes.

I don't understand how anyone can say even if your not in boost, thatyou don't hear a whine the engine makes even with the slightest of pressing. I don't know about you guys. Look at all the people who add a tune and cai and say oh my god its awesome. Well take that and add a lot more, thats how I feel with my supercharger. If you open the hood I can hear the twin screws spinning away. And after adding the saleen inlet tube i can actually hear the airbeing pulledinto my steeda cai.When I tap my gas my car goes, before it took a second before the car got enough power to actually go 'throttle lag'
I finally let my fiance drive my car after she rented a mustang when she had to drive out of town. Her words were wow the car justs wants to go fast. She said it was extremely different then the car she just rented. I guess for the people who don't know they have a supercharger have simply gotten used to it.
of course i only mean those with the saleen sc.

Tomorrow is the day, going to order the Brenspeed Stage 1 or 2 kit for now (trying to get 400 rwhp..my elevation is 3000 ft, so Ill probably need the Stg 2) and get her installed by next week.
Daily driver, in all weather conditions, so its going to be interesting to see how the tune works. Probably get him to make me 2 tunes, the 2nd with a much more gradual throttle rate.

RE: sc reliable?
still using the whipple tune. It has worked flawlessly and I see no reason to mess with it. I'm glad I didn't get a more aggressive dyno tune because I pulled my fuse for my intercooler pump while I was setting up my Aeroforce gauge(pump runs when key is on). Well needless to say i left the fuse sitting on top of the fusebox and drove to and from work with a few WOT runs. Had to go out and buy some normal size fuses as all I have is minis. Luckily i'm only running an 8lb pulley on my whipple HO kit. If I had it tuned for max HP it might have detonated.
