Horsepower wise whats the difference between a Normal 4.6 and a Saleen "non supercharged" 4.6. I apologise for the dumb question this is my 1st post on the 4.6 forum!!!

Not enough difference to warrant spending that much for an overwrought body kit.

The difference is primarily a body kit.

I think you had to have the stage II saleen to get the full suspention.

they are overpriced. a stock gt and a visit to maximum motorsports website will leave you with more money in you pocket.
