How do you feel about your Saleen Supercharger?
I feel as though I've been awake for two weeks straight researching every FI option there is for the S197. I'm really interested in the Saleen Stage 3 kit from Brenspeed. How do you feel about your Saleen supercharger (power, responsiveness, whine, issues, install)? Would you recommend it or if you could do it over again would you go another route?
For anyone reading this thread...I would like to purchase from Brenspeed because they're great and b/c they have the fabulous 0% financing. Given that, is there any other supercharger that you have positive experiences with and would recommend from Brenspeed?
Thanks...

I live about 2 hours away from anyone remotely qualified to work on a supercharger so my priority was finding a proven installer and I went with what they specialize in.
I'm a relatively low key guy who doesn't get wound-up by much and I've driven and restored Mustangs for most of my life, but the first time I drove it after the install my honest reaction was "oh my god, this thing pulls like a f-ing beast". No issues so far, but then again, I put it away for the winter right after Thanksgiving, so take that for what it's worth.
And, I'm dying a slow death waiting for spring....

I purchased and installed Brenspeed's Stage 3 in October or 08. Best Mod Ever! Its a great package and very easy to install. I installed it in my driveway with basic hand tools (except for the alternator pulley).

I have the Saleen Stage II from Brenspeed as well. Installed it about 3 weeks ago with the help of a few buddies. It makes great power and has been a lot of fun... plus you can't beat Brenspeed's customer service.

Any reviews on the Edelbrock?

I did my own Saleen install and had a custom tune in Dec. 06. Since then I've put 40k miles on the stock rotating assembly with a relatively heavy foot; about 50/50 city and highway. I've been running a 3.4 Pulley at 459 rwhp for most of that time and no problems. Track the car about 4 times a year. Just now getting ready to change the oil. Overall I like the look of the Saleen as well - it looks stock in my opinion. So if your goal for the car is like mine, I think the Saleen is a good choice. If you want bigger power I'd say look into KB or Whipple - only because I don't know much about the Edelbrock.
