+1 - and I would also think about the KB as all the units are now 2.6 liter models.
When did they go to 2.6??? Website still quotes 2.4L. Not doubting you, just curious.

Thx,

Mike
They went 2.6 within the last week. Anyone that has a current order will be getting a 2.6 and they are not offering upgrades.

Just had a KB installed & shipped directly from them 3 weeks ago. They are 2.4L Still.
You got yours two weeks too early then. Trust me, all the KB boys on the other board are giddy as school girls because of the size increase. Several members over there called yesterday to check the status on their order and while on the phone confirmed that they were getting a 2.6

is there anyway to get a saleen S/C and still keep my warranty in tact?
No
Well, YES, actually...

you just have to buy the car around it too... isn't it about $58k for the Saleen stage 3?

OK, you got me on a technicality. Yes, if you purchase a S281 Supercharged or S281 Extreme, it will come with a warranty.

( Stage 3 is Roush, not Saleen )

BUT - you forgot to mention that you CANNOT alter the saleen tune in any way shape or form or it voids the warranty and trust me, for the money, you will not be happy with the set-up the cars comes with.

Yep, I'd be pissed if I bought a KB 2 weeks ago...[:@]

2.4 or 2.6 - yeah it's a great blower but you can't go wrong with the saleen either. Injectors, pulley, MA.Fi.a. and that thing will rock.[sm=icon_rock.gif]

MA.Fi.a ??? Why bother? That's just a bandaide. Why not fix it correctly and get a Lightning MAF and MAS. You can pick them up brand new from buyfordracing.com for $70. Another $30 for the harness pigtail from Blueoval and no more worries, and no bandaide.

True - I was just throwing MAF.i.a. out there as an example for MAF. ^^^^ that would be the smart money.
