Default Saleen Mustang???

So my friend might be getting an SN95 Saleen Mustang and I was wondering what sets them apart from just the GT's other than appearance. I don't think the one he is getting is s/c'ed (did they even make the SN95 ones s/c'd?), but what is the power output compared to a normal GT?

When you buy a saleen mustang you are also buying into an elite group of mustang owners. They have their own clubs, own meetings, OEM saleen parts are now availiable for purchase. (yes a regular mustang owner can purchase them just dont expect them to ship them out to you any time soon since they are seen as less important. i get free next day air shipping with saleen) oh and you can pick up chicks by just making eye contact

That's all good and well, but I was talking about what makes the cars themselves different? They probably have some suspension mods, but what about engine as well? Are the non S/C ones any faster than the normal GTs?

And so can I if I cruise the street at the right time of night lol.

So an x pipe, and a catback is the only HP difference between them and a GT?

A few months ago (very end of 2005) I was looking at some used 04 Saleens with 40,000 miles on them for $41,000
