Default Saleen S/C

OK I have read and asked everyone I know about superchargers. My decision is to go with the Saleen S/C so I ordered it last night and should have it in two weeks. Now I need someone in the Dallas area to install it. Any suggestions?

Hey Tronden,

Im liking the Saleen charger too, the H/P to boost ratio looks pretty good to me. I like the idea of 400 HP at less than 5lbs of boost.

Who makes that hood, and the billett inserts you have ? Where did you get them? AND YOUR CAR LOOKS SICK !!!! I LOVE IT !

I concur with nitrojunkee. Your car looks really good. I'd like to know about the hood too if you don't mind.

I am much jealous you ba$tard

As for installation, Bob Norwood is pretty much tha man when it comes to hotrods and exotics. But you are gonna pay him... Or Mark ( skidmark ) from Trixter(trixterracing.com). They specialize in putting SCs on pickups. His partner Derrek ( crash ) is who lostsouls ordered his SC through.
There is one other place that is down on 78 between Sachse and Wylie but I can't for the life of me think of the name. Maybe even Lonestar Performance or Dallas Mustang, but I would certainly check those two as a last resourt.

The hood is Steeda. A friend of mine painted it for me. The rims came from mustangtuning.com. Hawgman thanks I will check these guys out. Lone Star suggested I not get one so they are not on my list for installation, I think the other place you are thinking of is Sachse Rod Shop?

Your car likes my car's big brother. Love the wheels, grill and hood (wonder why?). I admire your taste in Mustangs. Well done Troden.
