Yes, you can get a much more efficient setup for your money.. but not one that will keep my full warranty intact, which is the point of this whole thing.. I am not spending all this money on this car just to void major parts of the warranty lol

screw Roush, the warranty is figured into the price of the s/c and you can get a much more efficient setup for the money. Roush FTL.

The problem with the FRPP and having a dealer install it is the warranty is only good at that 1 dealer. I went through this for weeks trying to decide before I got mine. I drove mine from Arizona to Irvine and hadSaleen install it. I got the 4" 475BHP kit (390RWHP) andtey told me I had over 300 dealers in the Saleen network that I could go to if I had trouble. I liked the piece of mind knowing I could leave the state and still have warranty coverage.The plus side was they had my car done in 4 hours intercooler, shifter suspension all in 4 hours. I was back on the I-5 before 1:00 that afternoon heading home.

Correct, any Saleen authorized service center will back your warranty provided that you leave it alone, (ie, no pulley swap, can't get an aftermarket CAI/MAF, you get the point). The Extremem kit will net you 390RWHP +/- 5HP. I was chirping 4th with it so I'm sure you'll be happy.

I haven't heard of anyone blowing a motor even with the 475BHP kit. The internals on these engines are good for 450RWHP/520BHP the weakest part being the rods, and provided you don't constantlyover rev the motor.

Two questions if you don't mind...How much did Saleen charge for the install? And, did you buy the blower from them, or bring it with you??
Thx.

Pretty incredible they got it done in 4 hours. But, then again, I have toured the Saleen Factory and seen em in action......

Blower was $6400 which included the intercooler, MAF and39# injectors.
Guages $300
Shifter $200
Suspension $900-$1000 can't remember exactly
Labor must have been $1000-$1200. They had 4 people on my car and by the time I finished the tour, the suspension and intercooler were already on the car. Man they work fast.
total bill was $9000. Keep in mind they have lowered the price of the kit substantially since I bought this almosta year ago.
