Which is Faster? Saleen or Boss

[Unrealford]

2006 Saleen SC or a Boss 302

Track times on road coarse

Track times 1/4 mile

I looked on youtube didn't see too much info on Saleen
435 hp
425 trq is all I found.

A good friend of mine just bought one after trading in his 2010 Mustang V 6

And which car would you rather have.
Love my Boss but always like tge the 2006 Saleen SC.
Friend got it for $30,000 with just over 25,000 miles I don't see any mods to exhaust, intake or suspension, which is a plus in my opinion.

I would guess the boss, but have no hard data to back it up...

Boss > Saleen

Newer > older

4V > 3V

Built motor > Not built

4V > 3V

5.0 > 4.6

And lastly

4V > 3V

I run the Saleen 540, in a 5L built motor
Currently 11.50 @ 119 1/4 mile
555 rwhp Tuned by Tony Gonyon TTuners

So I would say Saleen

Boss would be faster in a straight line and way faster on a road course. Its a very nimble car. I would love to have a S281E though.

Only Saleen Mustang I would take over a Boss is a 99 S-351. The s197 Saleens are just plain awful looking in my personal opinion.

Sadly Saleen turned into a Joke once Steve left and now has come back and offers packages on Challengers and Camaros.

I love the look of Saleens. I would chose the Saleen for the looks and the Boss for performance. I daily drive the car and don't need such track ready cars like the boss. Not saying the boss is not daily driveable.

So I would buy both lol.
