Default saleen parts on v6

i was thinking about getting some of the saleen parts and putting them on my v6 and was wondering if they would fit or if they would just fit on a GT. i was thinking about getting the body kit with the center exhaust, and the suspension. o yea and does anyone know how much the saleen suspension would lower my car?

the body kit will fit, the exhaust would fit as long as you previously installed gt-take off cat-backs

I had actually looked into the Saleen rear bumper/exahust, I really like the look. I called Saleen, you can install these parts. They are REALLY expensive, I think about $1500+ for the exhaust and bumper(not including paint), and I think you need some custom piping as well because the exhaust they send you is made to fit the GT. I gave up on that idea really fast - just too expensive.

Yes the exhaust and body kit will work with a gtcutoff h pipe set up. The springs probably won't give you the effect you are looking for because they are desinged to handle a v8s weight, so a v6 may cause the car not to go as low as you may want it to.

ok thanks a lot for the input, but mtal said that i would need custom piping and jt said that i could just use a gt h pipe, which one is it? does anyone recommend any suspenion that would make my car look better and still perform well. if i do get new springs should i get the whole suspension package or would just new springs be fine?

the gt-take offs would work, custom piping would be needed to be made like the gt ones...so the gt-take offs would probably be cheaper

Progress Technology Sport Springs give about a 1.5 drop so that would probbaly be similar to the saleen ones
