I have never actually seen one run at the track, but i'm figuring a little higher than the average 03/04 cobra would be normal times .The 03 S-281 Supercharged had hardware changes to increase performance. A Saleen Series IV Lysholm twin-screw supercharger replaced the Roots-style blower previously used. The new blower provides greater thermal efficiency and works in conjunction with a new high-efficiency, high-density water-to-air intercooler. .

I think the twin-screw blower / PowerFlash computer/ 2.5-inch high-flow exhaust/help up its performance from previous years.Ratings are 375-h.p. @ 5,800 and 415 ft lb tq@ 3,500, respectively. The torque curve for this engine is much fatter and much flatter than the 99-02 year models. And the horsepower curve is much broader, so this motor pulls more strongly all the time." This is what Mr. Saleen said to 5.0 mag a while back and these where the price's quoted then:
Base price on the supercharged S-281 is $42,788 for the coupe and $46,807 for the ragtop.
