Default upgrades for Saleen SC???

So I bought me a new Saleen SC kit for my 05 mustang for $3200 shipped. Now what upgrades should I get before having it installed? I'm thinking about going with the Brenspeed stage 3 kit but I'd like some input before I buy it. I want to stay below 10psi. I'm looking for around 430-470 rwhp. The car is not a daily driver. I'm having it installed at Fastlane Motorsports here in N.C. The Brenspeed stage 3 kit comes with:
Steeda intake, 39lb injectors, belt, Boost-a-pump, line kit, XCal, HTO spark plugs, 3.4 pulley for $1363.

by the way..the 3.4 pulley is tech. the 10psi pulley...so if u want to stay below 10psi....you may want to consider the 3.6 pulley...good luck with it....you will have fun

A friend found it for sale on Craigslist in the Los Angeles area. He was asking $3500 plus shipping, and I asked him for the best price, so he said $3200 shipped. I'm in NC soshipping on 127lbs musthave cost a few $$$. The SC came via UPS today, and everything looks just like the pictures he sent me. Brand new, the SC still has the tags on it, and all the parts are in plastic. The only opened thing was the "Saleen installation guide".I have an 05 Ronaele mustang and I just put 20" chrome Saleen wheels on last week. I get a ton of attention with the car and I cant wait to get the SC on there! I'll post some pics of my mustang in a couple of days.

I purchased the brenspeed stage 2 kit, it's really nice an fun but decided to upgrade to stage 3. I ordered my spark plugs from a different shop other then brenspeed and it appears ups dropped something on them smashing 5 of them. I should get replacements Saturday. I am getting the car dyno'd again the same day so I can show you 2 different dyno's from the3.6 to the 3.4 pulley,to show the gains from a stage 2 to stage 3. Instead of the boost-a-pump they have in the stage 3 i went with the ford GT dual pumps.

Be careful with the boost a pump and making 470 RWHP. I upgraded to the gt500 dueal pumps, $800.00 is piece of mind that I am getting enough fuel delivery for my setup.

Congrats on the good deal (3200 WOW) and welcome to the Saleen club.
