Bought a S/C and need some opinions and suggestions.

mustangmanic · February 6th, 2009, 09:45 PM

Ok guys. Well i just purchased a Saleen Series II blower from a fellow member here.
It comes with a complete kit. Intercooler, hoses, Cobra Maf, Injectors, heat exchanger, 9 and 6lb pulley, and the blower itself. It put down 350rwhp on his car with very similar mods as me... i will put down a little more due to my lt's.

I got it, cuz everyone that gets a positive displacement gets a KB. And i wanted to be unique. and i got it for a GREAT price.
Apparently, they're efficient up to about 14 lbs.

I have some questions. The blower is ported, so will this allow me to possibly add a smaller pulley to it and get more than 14lbs efficiently?
Also, i would like to purchase a methanol injection kit to mainly cool the blower and intake temps down cuz i know the eatons run hot. Also, that will allow me to run up to 110 octane, even if i use 93 pump gas. What kind of gains will i lead to with this?

And finally... MPH said they can make a custom ground cam for this specific blower and its mods for a gain of 40 extra hp with stock heads!!!!! i have no freakin clue how this is possible, but I think i may do this as well.

Thoughts, opinions? And Please dont talk shit about me buyin a saleen blower, yes, i kno they're inefficient, but i bought it anyways so deal with it hahah.

I will also be adding a focus fuel pump

Smoothgrandmama · February 6th, 2009, 09:56 PM

Well with cams you can see alot more hp with fi. but if your not forged i dont see much point. . .you will already be in the high 300's

KingChronic · February 6th, 2009, 11:36 PM

hope you didnt pay too much, nothing but a glorified heaton.

SWEET2KSTANG · February 6th, 2009, 11:45 PM

go with a gt supercar pump, not the focus
the blower cams will gain because it will utilize the boost pressure
ported blowers will add volume, but 14lbs is still going to be the limit. the rotors in teh blower can only turn so fast.
a methonal kit can be ran on it if you would like
eatons are great entry level blowers. people talk shit about them because they want more out of them than they were meant for.

ZoomZoomMFer · February 7th, 2009, 12:06 AM

guess your not selling the car now, huh pat?

mustangmanic · February 7th, 2009, 02:06 AM

Thanks for the help sweets

KC, I only paid 1500 for the entire kit. Not too shabby at all.

and naw jaryd. This deal came along, and i thought about it.... i dont wanna sell my baby just yet haha.

If we're talking about Focus fuel pumps like the GT500 has than it'll outflow the Ford GT fuel pump (1v1).

Youngin · February 7th, 2009, 02:26 AM

Svt focus fuel pump~

B0B · February 7th, 2009, 03:45 AM

sweet bro!! you might not get as much rwhp as a KB or a cenrti but you'll love it. and you'll love that torque curve. with 9psi and blower cams plus your mods you should see ~425 rwhp

the svt focus pump flows 255lph and fall on its face when they are needing to flow high volume at a high pressure. the supercar pump flows 310lph and can do it all day long with no issue. running a single pump on these cars as well, the supercar pump is just the way to go.

Is the GT pump a direct replacement?

Smoothgrandmama · February 7th, 2009, 10:48 AM

I dont think so. and by the way ill still be faster :-).

no

Also, i would like to purchase a methanol injection kit to mainly cool the blower and intake temps down cuz i know the eatons run hot.

do some searches on modular fords in the cobra section. Many people have found no gains with meth when shooting it through the intercooler. This is because the IC will coalesce the meth.

Also, that will allow me to run up to 110 octane, even if i use 93 pump gas. What kind of gains will i lead to with this?

Your way off. meth is 110 octane if that is 100% of your fuel. Injecting 10% of your fuel as meth (that's a lot) you would end up with about 95 octane

And finally... MPH said they can make a custom ground cam for this specific blower and its mods for a gain of 40 extra hp with stock heads!!!!! i have no freakin clue how this is possible, but I think i may do this as well.

the more power you make, the more each part can contribute.

see quotes above

that is hard as hell to read
