i did...pulled it like it was standing still. oh yeah it was supercharged also
saleen use to be fast before they put the 281cu engine in them and all suck now even with 4something hp
The E as I know is only .2 or .3 seconds faster than the 03 cobra and is ALOT more money. I know I dont own eather one I am just saying if I had 33G I would get a 03 cobra all they way I wouldnt save up more money for a Saleen. Just my .02
A lot of SHOW but no GO!!! 03 COBRA's ROCK and ROLL Baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My .03 cent

I raced a couple of Saleens with a few bolt ons in my LS1 and the ass kicking was severe. I LARV MY LS1!
The Mach 1 is fast then the supercharged Saleen not the E. Well atleast I think it is:shrug: Some one correct me if I am rong :-D I would rather have the Mach then the Saleen and the Mach's are only 28-29 thousand I think. Like 1Yellow03 said Saleens are all show and no go.
A new S281-SC would own a Mach all day long. The new SC'd S281S have twin-screws and make 375hp and well over 400tq.
The S281-E is the top dog of "stock" mustangs right now. A built 2V with a Twin-Screw, exhaust, cams, 6spd, Solid 8.8, etc. They can run 12.2 on stock rubber, and 11.70s on slicks. Its a beast.
Thanks for correcting me bro:thumbsup:
Just trying to educate :thumbsup:
You seem to know a thing or 2 so what gears would you recommend for me I have a 98 GT and about 50% of the people have said 3.73 and the other 50% said go with 4.10's. I am looking for the best improvements in 1/4 mile Thanks bro.
4.10s for a daily driver.
I'd recommend getting the PI Headswap done first though. Its the best bang for the buck mod on 96-98GTs.
Edit - in case you dont know, PI means Performance Improved, These heads are the same ones used on 99+GTs.

Ya I would love to get the PI heads but just got enough money for gears right now. Is there a big performance difference between the 3.73 and 4.10's? Thanks again
3.73s are a waste. BTW - do you have an Auto or Manual?
Manual do you know how much they will help me 1/4 mile wise. I was thinking about .3 off my time but im not sure? One more thing to get the gears installed you need a Speedcal right?

Seriously though, I'd save up for the PI Headswap instead of doing gears right away.

How much are they exactly and where can you get them? thanks
They should run around $1200 for everything including cams and valves. Your compression will be upped to about 10.5:1 afterthe swap.
I didt know where you could get them, so I looked around for you.
Fox Lake, PowerHeads Performance and DTA Racing and Performance are the ones I could quickly find.
