Default 475-550 and 550-600hp upgrades now available! + more!

Hey guys! just FYI, we have some install only options available from Saleen SpeedLab now...

475 owners can come in and leave the car for a week and we can upgrade it to the 550hp set up for $2500.

This kit includes:
Supercharger machining upgrade to E-specs
Dual Fuel pumps
HT0 Spark Plugs
Zip Tube
Pulley
JDM Tune

Also available for E-owners: 600hp kit!
Cost for this kit is $1300 installed and it can be done in as little as one day.

I havent even advertised the 600hp kit and its been the most popular install all week via word of mouth alone, and the this is the first time the 475 to 550 upgrade has been offered, period.

EDIT: Also! Dont have a blower? want a polished blower like the one featured in on the Citrus motors car on the cover of Muscle Mustangs and fast fords? We can now offer these polished blowers on a limited basis, call us for pricing on for each kit.

EDIT 2: And yes! the 550 kit does work with automatic!

Also, if you already upgraded to HT0 Spark plugs or dual fuel pumps I will work with you on the pricing.

Jared,

2 Question:

What additional would be required to install the 550 kit on an 07 with 465 stock (what is missing that the 475 kit has?)

Does this void the cars warrantees?

Thanks

You would need everything listed above minus the spark plugs. Yes the 550 kit voids warranty, it is not a production tune and is very aggressive. However, as long as you treat your car with the respect I'm sure you already do, and do not drive it in an abusive fashion, you will be safe and happy with the product.

Very nice. I've voided my warranty to then be retroactively covered again. My hunch is this 550 upgrade will never be warranteed though. With JDM on board this is a very tempting upgrade.

Jared, thanks for sharing this info, it is great to know. A couple of questions that I think others might wonder about too:

1. How "streetable" isthe 550 tune? Any drivability or warm-up issueswhen used in the mundane real world of a short trip to run errands, etc.? Sometimes aggressive tunes have to make those kind of compromises....

2. IIRC JDM used to have a "cold weather" tune that you had to switch to when the temperature dropped below 40 degrees or some-such. Anything like that for this tune?

3. Can the 550 upgrade also be done at Troy, or at my localSaleen dealer?

Thanks again, it is great to know that Saleenisdedicating resourcesto upgrades and improvements like this.

This may be a stupid question, but when they say “voids the warrantee”, would this void the warrantee on just the modified parts (engine, supercharger & such), or would it complete void every warrantee on the car. Like for instance parts that are completely unrelated like the ignition system or even the motor that makes the windows role up?

Just curious and trying to better understand.

Also, does the 550 kit still meet emissions for us that have to deal with that yearly?

Thanks.
