+1What all are you missing? Most parts you can buy any brand of with out paying the Saleen price for it.
I would look into a 90mm Lightning MAF and SVT Focus Fuel Pump. These parts can be bought pretty much anywhere.

, you can use your stock fuel pump as supercharged Saleen's use the same GT fuel pump from the factory. I think they also use the stock GT MAF.
For fuel, you could just get a Kenne Bell Boost-a-Pump
Thats what a lot of people say, but I've never heard it from someone who it actually happened to...
Wouldn't recommend those either. Causes high stress on the pump. The BAP's are prone to failing as well. People, do it right the first time, or don't do it at all!!
Just get it over with, buy a cobra tank w/ 2 pumps, and you'll never need any more fuel than that.
Massive lean spikes and a blown engine? So is that how Stock Series II Saleen's come from the factory, ready to blow up on less than 290hp?? Theres NA cars on here making 290hp on the stock pump. As long as the car gets tuned properly I don't see any problems.BAD idea. Go ahead and use the stock fuel pump, if you want massive lean spikes and a blown engine.
At the minimum you should have a Focus pump, 42lb injectors, and Lightning MAF.

What evidence you got to back this up? My tuner uses them all the time and has never heard of a failure yet. Mine works flawlessly! They are not at all hard on the pump. If anything, what kills fuel pumps is running the tank too low on fuel...which is a big no-no on a supercharged vehicle.

If you are going to mod it, then yeah I'd definitely upgrade. And you don't need 42lb injectors at a minimum as noted. I am running 39lb Cobra injectors with a ported/pullied Series II with no problems. My tuner actually recommended them for my setup.
I think you have your blowers confused. This is a Series II Saleen blower, not the Series IV. Stock they put down around 290 to the wheels. Heres a LINK to a guy who posted an install guide for the Series II on his GT. The kit was bone stock straight from Saleen - he put down 286hp to the wheels after the install (dyno graph is on the right of the page).Your going to be pushing more than 290HP with a Saleen blower. At least 330whp. The stock pump can handle that amount, but it's risky. I only said 42lb minimum because you are better safe than sorry. You start cheapin' out, your going to blow the motor.

I myself have a Series II thats ported and pullied and am only putting down 323rwhp. The intercooler on these blowers suck. Plus belt slip is an issue, my belt is eating up my rad hose. They make upgrades for both areas, thats what I'll be working on next. My numbers are low, but 350tq feels pretty damn good for now.
Where are you getting your facts and figures from? Show me some dyno graphs of stock Series II Saleen kits putting down 330hp to the wheels, Id LOVE to see them!
And a lot of guys run 39lb Cobra injectors with modded Series II blowers. Again shoot me some facts, I'd like to see who blew their motor with a Series II because they "cheaped" out and didn't get a minimum of 42lb injectors.
I guess my tuner is wrong, what would a guy like Bob Kurgan know...
Again, I think you have your setups confused, do some research.
I didn't realize the series II was such a crappy blower, forgive me
The Series II utilizes an Eaton M90. It's not a crappy blower by any stretch but it's also not a big breather when compared to the big breathing twin screws on the market.
I'm making the number in my sig with an M90S.
