If I may be so bold I believe the Saleen "intake" is a Saleen Supercharger.

Not to speak on Powers behalf but, He only has that Sallen Supercharger at 7 psi with a Custom Tune and a few minor bolts like CAI he has only Mufflers no exhaust, still on stock gears and the MT's.
We are right at sea level and in central FL.

Hey Powers, Yea you were movin pretty good once u get atleast some 3.73's i can see you gettin down to where the kid in the black 04 cobra was. And if u have a video of that third run that would be great thats they one where I threw down the 8.9 the other two just delete my car LOL. Hope to see you again next week maybe it will be less humid and u can see the 7.8's or atleast low 7.9's. I think that you can do it just try to get ur launch to 3 grand if you can. Anyways get back with me. And 7 runs whawawewa thats alot lol.
I got a quick video up on youtube. My girlfriend was doing the taping and shes still getting used to the camera so it isn't best shots, kinda got the blair witch thing going for it. as for next week i think im taking a break for atleast a couple weeks, im trying to decide what to do next.

heres the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bROSL2oM5pQ

I was under the impression the conversion from 1/8 mile to 1/4 mile was your 1/8 mile time (7.9) X 1.5 That would equal 11.85.
i need some M/T slicks. My best time on street tires was 11.9, I'm to at sea level.

I think this guys got more than 7psi on a Saleen S/C

im not sureabout that one...last year i was running 7.8X-7.9X 8ths, running 12.4X-12.6X in the quarter...trapping around 86-87 in the 8th and 104-106 in the quarter.

i think that my best 8th was a 7.861...which would equal an 11.79...and as much as i wish that i was running 11.70s, im not...

Well your car is all suspension isn't it? If so those low 60's would explain the difference between 1/8 and 1/4 times
