A Saleen SC 281 is supercharged. Basically Saleen takes a GT, adds the sc, body kit, rims, and suspension. But it is still a GT motor.

A Saleen S281 is the same as above minus the supercharger.

SVT only makes the Cobra, Lightning, ad Focus.

If it wasn't a Cobra, then yes they are meaningless.

I am from Delaware County. Not too far from the Philly Intl' Airport. About 45 minutes from you.

I don't think i would want to mess with your high performance fender badges, i bet they add some serious torque.

I think you should worry more about his 13.1 stock time....

Oh boy, a real comedian. What would an Eclipse owner know about torque anyway? As for racing from a roll, that's not a real drag race, it's not my fault if you don't know how to launch a car out of the hole. :beer:

Your trap speed is definitely fast enough to roll with stock 03-04 Cobras, but if it's the Saleen in the area mentioned previosuly that you picked a fight with, there's no chance you would have been able to stay near him.

That was when i was doing like 104mph traps. Stock IC, pump gas, no nitrous and ~19lbs. Now i hold 20psi, supra IC and 55shot. I may or may not attend your guys dyno day at xotic to gain some respect, phillydsm has their own day late in june though.. i dont think i can wait that long though.
