"Saleen" engine ?? Stock mods??

QKRTHNU · 05-22-2007, 08:28 PM

I was in a conversation with a authority on Saleens today (owns 0) and he said the stock mustang GT engine in my 97 S281 is MODIFIED by SALEEN. I said I did not think the engine or drivetrain had been touched just suspension and body mods.

Anyone want to shed some light on this ??

Well - to be technical they touched the engine but not the drive line. The 281 engine recieved a couple bolt on mods but I don't have my book handy. Pretty sure it recieved a hi-flow filter (not a true CAI) higher flowing cat backs, and I THINK higher performance plugs or wires.

You got high flow air filter, Saleen hi-perf. plug wires and Saleen/Borla cat back.

Pretty much what I thought.

You know how it is when you have owned several and some "expert" knows more then you.

Thanks all

Yeah - I particularly enjoy the "experts" that like to point out why my car isn't legit [sm=icon_blah.gif] [sm=chairshot.gif]
