Quick question.. around how much power should be expected from this setup if i were to run it on my stock NPI motor with just a PI intake/cams?

not quite, it has its own built into it. notice the aluminum runners under the blower housing

it should be a nice add on the intake is high flow so a big increase from a stock npi intake. i cant remember but i think saleen put 350hp number on them at normal boost but i will look back they only produce them in 98 if i am not mistaken

Ok guys it fits mustangs with the npi heads. So only 96-98 after 99 we all know they switched to pi heads. So it dose limit the power because you have to use the npi heads. As far as how much it will put down i have seen guys do 330-350 rwhp with just the sc on and some small ad ons. Boost is at 10lbs at wot stock but at wot i would see 12lbs with the power pipe. it could be more with a smaller pulley. Any other questions Guys? I must say for a small m90 this thing was a nice improvement. Pulled very well down low.

I was being serious when i said by the end of summer i'll take it off your hands if you still have it.
Seems like no one wants to step up and grab it, so hopefully it can hold out for a couple of months.

I was a bit confused at first too, hence why i starting asking questions.
It's a bit sad, but i didnt realize saleen supercharged the 96-98 mustang. I know the newer s281's were.. but not these ones.

Ya i had no idea either when i first saw it. The reason i bought the car in the first place because of the sc. From what i know it was in 98 when they put them on. Their first roots blowers they put on, in the years before they used centrifugal superchargers.

You would need a bigger fuel pump. Im not sure what size but something a bit bigger. I would replace the one from the intake and the one the back of the sc. They are oem. You would need a tune and a few odd and ends.

Glad for you to see it sold.... sad I didn't come up with some extra money to buy it. Someone is going to be very happy with this spinning under their hood.
