Doc, I recall your 4psi numbers were 401RWHP with the 5 speed manual so the automatic loses about 16HP more at 4psi boost.

RE: Just bought a saleen S/C, couple question.
1100 for a tune and complete install is a steal!
The cheapest I found was 1300 for just the install no tune.
I actually was about to place my order on the GB but I wanted the warranty.
I called Saleen HQ, and they said even if the kit is installed by a Saleen Certified Tech, the car will not be covered by saleen, and the warranty would be voided from ford.
I know you have to prove, but a Supercharger is easier to blame than an intake.
But I said you know what screw the warranty, then I saw some really crappy times for the S/C saleen on the stock GT. Like 107-109mph traps. Then Some in the 112 range. If I spent all that cash and trapped 107, I would be pissed.I figured I will just keep it n/a do some bolt ons, and run mid 12's@108ish. And be over 5k ahead of the game.
I can put that towards my C6 Z06 fund, lol.
