the little things add up on a Saleen
I will tell you what...by no means am I being cheap, to put in my saleen, it is going to cost a little more than expected. here is a price list of what I had to do,,,,not including the great price on the saleen.
gauges by autometer Elect Fuel Press/ mech boost vac) $268.
new pulley $163
new steeda CAI (I was concerned as 50% said my current C+L will not fit, 20% said it would and 30% did not know) so I went with the steeda CAI that attaches to the inlet hose that was $249
39lb injectors $369
Tune ($149 is what i was quoted, will verify tomorrow)
install I was quoted up to $1200....but found the same speed shop that installed headers to give me a great deal that is well below $1000
overall we are talking $1200 on top of my purchase price without the install....
wow you have to pay to play

Hmm, I guess when I said I had the C+L and the Saleen and it fit you didn't believe me?

you can usually pick up a slightly used set of 39 lb cobra injectors (blue ones) for $150, and brenspeed has pulleys for about $110, and gauges arent a must if money is tight........plus you should be able to use your c&l as long as it's 90mm........

I feel you, ive got my supercharger coming off the same deal you got and ive also ordered the follwoing to go with it.
TUNE
JDM cold air kit
90mm mass air meter and harness
39# injectors
3.6 boost pulley ( 8 psi)
Belt Gates K061080
Saleen Extreme intake boot
Vaccum line upgrade kit
Ford Racing plugs (1 step colder than stock)
Thats about $1200 more, on the bright side I finally found a shop to give me a quote less than 1300, got it down to 700 for install.
You may want to look at adding the colder spark plugs like i mention above, it's reccomended for supercharger/turbp/nitrous apps.
