This will make me feel better!

This goes on the Mustang next weekend.  Then I'll drop the car off to get the hood fixed!  Pics of install to come in 8 days or so....

Saleen changed it for me.  Their horrible customer service (I'd STILL be waiting for the Saleen) and further research has shown me this is the way to go.  It comes with bigger injectors and colder spark plugs (the Saleen does not).

It is non-intercooled, but can be upgraded if I feel like cranking up the boost.  At 6 pounds of boost, it's really not necessary on a twin screw unit.  8 PSI or better would need one.  I don't plan on upping the boost for at least a year (if at all).  The flash tuner with the computer program is already enroute from Ford Racing as well.  It's the only thing holding up my install. 

BTW,  I'll never order ANYTHING from Saleen due to their poor handling of my situation with them.

Hell man, that blower, headers back exhaust, and youll probably be more than happy with it for a long time. Ford really corks those things up
It's Gumby's fault.

Headers and axleback ler system already done on the car.  I have to make a decision on a mid-pipe.
