Hi Everyone. I'm brand new to this site and am a new owner of this 2008 Vista Blue Saleen S281 SC #175. I bought the car in August with 16k miles on it. This thing is a blast to drive. The parts list is below.. I'm sure Ill miss something.. I didn't build this car and I haven't got the parts list down just yet but here's what I know for sure..

2008 Saleen S281SC #175
Ported heads & supercharger
FRP Cams
Forged Internals (possibly 302 stroker)
Kooks Long Tube Stainless Headers
Kooks Stainless Intermediate pipe with high flow cats
Innovator West 10% overdrive pulley
Mosaleen Belt Setup
Saleen Extreme Cold Air intake
FRP Radiator Cover
Upgraded Heat Exchanger
McLeoud clutch
3:73 Rear End Ratio
Saleen Watts Link
HID headlights
Upgraded Sway bars (front & rear)
Optional 20" forged wheels
Dash is signed by Steve Saleen

I'm told by Deans Performance that the car was last tuned by Tim Barth when he worked at Mr Norms Garage. I haven't had it on a dyno yet but the claim is 605hp/500ftlbs at the tires. Ill definitely have a much better idea in the spring as I probably wont get it to a dyno before its tucked away for the winter.

Here are some pics
