    Roush 05

    Those prices are for 18" wheels, the '05's & '06's are running 20's. I have managed to buy replacements for my '05 for as cheap as $398 a tire from Discount Tire. I believe the wholesale price on those is around $260.

    Roush Gotta have one of these...... offtopic

    That motor sounds awesome! It's hard to believe that sound is coming from something so small. I'm impressed. I wonder how much HP that thing is putting out?

    Roush Your Track Times...

    Are you running street tires? My times were in that range until I started using drag radials.....your 1/8 mile times will drop signifigantly.

    Roush 05

    Drop a Vortech S-Trim in it. It requires very little mods to the car, easy to return to stock, and doesn't require intercooling below 9 lbs of boost and will be good for around 450 rwhp.

    Roush Dyno results..............dissapointing!

    I tuned my car after each modification. Because there wasn't anyone in Albuquerque at the time doing SCT programming, I would go do some runs at the dyno shop, and then immediately e-mail my results to JMS Chip & Performance. They would then create a new program and e-mail it back to me. I...

    Roush Dyno results..............dissapointing!

    The first time I put my stock '01 SC on the dyno I had similar numbers at around 5500 ft. above sea-level. My car was also running way rich like yours. After a Chicane pulley, Chicane RIPP Kit, a SVT Focus pump, and a series of tunes, I jumped up to around 350 rwhp.

    Roush Recall: '05 & '06 Saleens w/ Brake Upgrade

    Well, I contacted my local Ford/Saleen dealership about the recall for the brakes and they informed me that it might be around 3-4 weeks before I see the replacements:notnice: That kinda' bummes me out considering the letter states that my brakes might suddenly fail. Am I wrong to expect the...

    Roush got a new toy for the summer

    Nice ride. Just remember one key thing - it is easy to turn that throttle and go fast, but it takes time, patience, and skill to turn and stop. I lost 6 friends in a year when they bought biles because they like mine.....1/2 them split cars in into two pieces.....

    Roush Recall: '05 & '06 Saleens w/ Brake Upgrade

    Got a letter in the mail yesterday from Saleen stating that the upgraded break system on the '05's & '06's could suddenly fail:jaw: In the letter they are requesting me to call them so my car can get towed to the nearest authorized Saleen Dealership to replace the braided brake lines...

    Roush saleen or C6 vette?

    Hey Marcus, You are reading my post correctly. I should state, though, that my car configuration has changed since I last posted to this forum and have yet to update my garage. I have have dropped my pulley size to a 2.6", and have installed an O/R X-Pipe, upgraded my fuel pump and rails...

    Roush saleen or C6 vette?

    I sure hope that I wasn't sounding harsh. I was just trying to politely make a couple of points. If I did come across that way, I apologize:D

    Roush saleen or C6 vette?

    Looking on the surface you have a valid observation. However, there are many factors that come into play on each individual race: 1. Driver skill level 2. 130 more rwhp to the ground (stock Z06 = 427 RWHP; my '05 = 558 RWHP on 91 octane gas) - this factor is irrelevant if you can't drive...

    Roush saleen or C6 vette?

    I raced a C6 Z06 the other day several times and put no less than 10 cars on him running up to around 170 MPH in the '05. The car definitely gets good traction, though. It was a struggle to stay with him down low because of how well the car hooked-up. BTW The guy down the street from me...

    Roush Diablo tune

    I should clarify that my experience and what I am referring to are with the handheld tuners (SCT XCal II, and the Predator). I cannot speak to how the actual aftermarket chips perform. The chips themselves may or may not be able to work with/retain the stock Saleen tunes, but only the SCT Xcal...

    Roush Diablo tune

    Justin is correct. You have to essentially throw away your Saleen tune to use the Predator (must reflash with GT tune). The SCT will store the tune on the device in case you need to return the car to stock for whatever reason. Also, the XCal II will allow you to store up to 3 tunes on the...

    Roush Tires

    I don't have any pictures but you get some at http://discounttire.com or at http://www.tirerack.com. I have run 295/35-18 on the optional 10 rear wheel from Saleen and 265/35-18 on the front. I also ran the BFG Drag Radials in 315/30-18's on the rear with no problems. ~ Billy
