Those new supercharged Saleen's are way overrated. They look nice, got the "rated" HP numbers, but LS1's still eat them for lunch.

I hit a black supercharged one when I was just cammed, and left him in the dust twice. Put a bus on him by 130.

This, and numerous other kills on those I have seen, has me thinking the 05-06 Saleen is just an overpriced GT with a body kit.

On the other hand, they only have 4lbs of boost from the factory. Push that up to 12lbs, and a set of gears, and it might be a handful.

I am not really up on what the saleens have, but I have seen one around town and a few weeks ago we happened by the same way. I caught up to him with my WS6 and two times he just gave me a rev. The third time he actually jumped on it and I walked him bad. I have talked to a few people to make sure it was supercharged but I don't know for sure.
