    Roush 2003 saleen s/c or supercharger mach 1 ?

    To get 500+ at the tires I'd imagine it would be cheaper with a mach 1 than a saleen. You don't buy a saleen for the power potential. It's for looks and handling (it also has a decent amount of power.....but there aren't a lot of 500+ horsepower 99-04 saleens running around. If you get a...

    Roush 2003 saleen s/c or supercharger mach 1 ?

    I'll tell you my opinion on the subject because I looked at Mach 1's, 03-04 cobras, and 2002-2004 saleens before I made my decision. I liked the styling of the saleen the best and thought it stood out in a crowd. I have people that come up to me all the time to ask me about it. Mach 1's...

    Roush school me on saleens

    Some answers for you: If your budget is $20k you won't be able to find a 351 for that...guaranteed. The 99-04 mustangs are moderately easy to mod, but a little on the pricey side. If you compare them to a terminator cobra (03-04) for instance, the saleens are a lot more expensive to modify...

    Roush Would you trade a Saleen for a Built Boosted Mach 1?

    You have a beautiful car.....but I wouldn't consider trading. I like all the Mach 1's and especially the terminator cobras. I looked at both before getting the saleen. I think you'd find most saleen owners aren't stuck up. I agree with others that it's more about the total package than just...

    Roush Need some help with my Saleen

    Ditto on the above response. Unless you're planning on going over 420ish RWHP....a lightning mass airflow will work just fine (and it's cheaper than an SCT!). Again....i was close to pegging but not quite there when I upgraded with just the pulley.

    Roush Need some help with my Saleen

    I switched to the 66mm pulley and SVT fuel pump and I didn't need injectors at that time. I was close to the threshold, though. When I did the next upgrade I had to switch to 42's.

    Roush Need some help with my Saleen

    Yes. Not only will you need a tune but you will also have to upgrade your fuel pump. I suggest the SVT focus fuel pump which runs at 255l/h. Do the CAI at the same time (it also requires a tune). You'll find that it's difficult to find an air intake to fit with the stock supercharged...

    Saleen new inlet/intake for Series II

    This is a very good point and why you can't necessarily compare results with what I have. My timing was 14 degrees which is the stock saleen timing. That's a VERY important difference. I went conservative on purpose because I'm on stock internals. If I want a paper to read 400....then I'd...

    Saleen new inlet/intake for Series II

    Final numbers: 387rwhp / 394rwtq Gains all across the power band. PS- That's with a conservative tune. 14 degrees of timing. Throttle response alone makes it wicked. Much better than the Accufab 75mm TB I had on before.

    Roush Will the Series IV Supercharger fit a 96?

    Actually....one more correction for the thread. The series IV was a Lysholm 1.6L twin screw that put down 375hp in stock form and came on the 03-04 supercharged cars (the one you're considering). The series V was a lysholm 2.3L that came on the 2003 and 2004 Extremes and was the one that...

    Saleen new inlet/intake for Series II

    Haha...thanks for the enthusiasm! Points to consider: 1. In order to get the full tork tech kit to fit on my car I would have to buy a new hood because of clearance issues. It won't fit with a saleen supercharger hood and I happen to like the looks of the stock hood. 2. I don't have...

    Saleen new inlet/intake for Series II

    Just as a follow up to this thread....I am trying out a portion of the tork tech kit. I bought the entire intake side from the plenum all the way down to the filter and will be linking it up to my stock series II (eaton M90) supercharger. I also purchased the chicane intercooler and some...

    Hey everyone. I'm organizing a group buy for the chicane intercooler. The current price is $799 plus s/h, but if I can get a couple more people....Joe at chicane will offer it to us for $699 + s/h. Anyone interested? These things never go on sale..... PM me or post up if you're interested.

    Roush 99-04 S281 Fog Lamps

    Sorry I'm late to the party.....I added fog lamps to my car. It's got a separate switch that I had mounted near the dash plaque. Some people like it...some people don't.

    Roush beryllium extreme on ebay

    Not nearly as much as they want for it. The engine has been completely rebuilt and a lot of the original parts are gone. Also, the rumor is that it has been in an accident before, but its not something that was reported. The high dollar cars are the ones with original parts, etc. This one has...

    Roush Cobra m112 and Tork Tech kit

    ahhh....ok i see. thanks for the link to that auction. So you're keeping the intake side of your current setup, right? So you'd keep your TB, maf, etc. etc.... Going with the option you suggested I don't think would quite get me to 400rwhp....because I don't have anything on the intake...

    Roush Cobra m112 and Tork Tech kit

    yes....but its a matter of money in this case. the torktech setup with inlet and without heat exchanger is $3400 plus shipping. Then you still need 42lb injectors ($325). Tuning and dyno are up in the air (let's say $500 for simplicity). If you're not doing the install (which I am certainly not...

    Roush Cobra m112 and Tork Tech kit

    I'm in the exact same boat you're in! I'm looking to hit around 400rwhp.....and I don't want to forge or go higher because of stock internals. My car is already fast....but I could always inch a little closer to the safe upward limits of the 2v motor. I have a series II S/C (came stock on my...
