540rwhp. I guess your gonna need a built motor to use that SC. The consensus is 450-460 rwhp is about the most you should throw at your stock block. Well TJ get that supercharger since your are so crazy about it and post your numbers. I really cant take your word for it.

Black I have no plans to get this S/C I am debating whether to throw a Saleen S/C on my car or pick up a used 07 Shelby GT 500. I just think it exciting when something new comes for the S197 and shows signs of being able to put out some good power. I find this supercharger very interesting as it is new and hearing the specs and numbers and seeing what this thing will do now and in the future on a S197.

IMO I would not run this S/C if I planed my on keeping my motor stock unless they come out with alarger pulley. Now if I was going to run a built motor now or in the very near future this S/C so far would be at the top on my list from what I know so far. But I would need further info on seeing this thing on a 298 ci forged motor and see if it performs the way I heard and think it is going to before I would go with it.

But so far it looks promising.

I just read it. I probably posted my reply soon after yours popped up. Watch these shops man... They will tell you all about what you'll be able to do but they won't tell you "what exactly" stock means. It's like the shop with the fastest GT500 right now saying their shelby has a "stock" motor.. Well they left out the fact that that is their 4th "stock" motor in that car...

They also leave out the fact that they stole the idea for the turbo intake.
