If I keep the V8 ST as many of you may remember, I've been considering supercharging assuming the gearbox would cope.

In Boca Raton Florida, I was researching Mustang specialists (as I want to build a track mustang) and came across this:

So of course I shall be sending an email to find out more.

INteresting...keep us posted.
 






I am collecting parts for a saleen series VI supercharger. Have the headunit and a few of the bits and pieces already. Just need some time!

I like this better than the Eaton, as it is a more efficient twin screws. Easy 475HP.
 






Pass on the Blow By Racing and go Saleen via Brenspeed conversion. I've heard nothing but bad about BBR.
 






Subscribing.
 






Unfortunately in Russia is very high taxes for high-performance engines, Ehplorer 213 - 14 000 rubles, or about $ 500 a year, and if the engine is more powerful then even more

BBR is in my city, haven't really heard much praise for them and not some delightful reads on the forums. I see one of their Stangs driving around that sounds pretty good, but I see a ton of their BBR stickers on everything from Jeeps, stock mustangs lol, jet-ski's etc.
 






So mine makes 400rwhp at 5psi on 93 octane. The kit is about $8000.00

Can make more but the transmission would need a built valve body and you would need an upgraded fuel pump and or a Kenne Bell Boost-A-Pump.

There is a guy with a tiny M90 supercharged STA. He makes 450rwhp on 9psi with 110 octane. This was a beefed up version of BBR's kit. I think he spent even more because they upgraded his fuel pump, did a BAP and even bigger injectors (I have 39 pound).

Not a bad setup. His installer's know their stuff and they really maxed out that little M90. Not talking smack or throwing around disrespect but.... food for thought, he has nearly twice the boost and he has more mods than I have with higher octane fuel, and he is only making 50 more rwhp more.

Just can't beat the Saleen VI.5 2.3L for this application imo.
