Wow... they did what SVT intended on years ago... that's awesome!
I'm assuming the 'Thunder' will smoke the Dodge... considering the power to performance between the last Lightning and that year's head to head Dodge SRT-10, the Ford wasn't a slouch.
Quote:The Saleen Supercharged Sport Truck packs a punch at 450 bhp @ 5200 RPM, and with 500 lb-ft of torque @ 4000 RPM which is due in part to the unique, patented, high-flow Saleen Series VI integrated twin-screw supercharger. Here, air is compressed through the twin screws and then runs through the dual-stage, water-to-air intercooler, which reduces the intake air temperature. With this cool, dense air, the Saleen Powerflash⢠performance calibration system radically increases the power and performance.
In recognizing the trend of consumers wanting more choices, the Saleen Sport Truck will be offered as a normally aspirated, 3-Valve Sport Truck, which offers 325 bhp @ 5000 RPM, and with 400 lb-ft of torque at 4000 RPM.
