does that give you more horsepower?

it will increase some torque.. but with the turbo, torque is plenty around, I guess:D

Do you have any more info on the set-up? how much bar? hp? torque?
moviefiles?

I'm a licenced tech i fix cars all day eveyday heres some pics of exotics that have came throught the shop or been in the showroom up front. I took the pics with my cell phone so they are not the best quality.

whew....those Saleen's are fun to drive, no? I have driven a silver one just like that one at my work. I didn't drive it much, but you don't need to to have fun in it

EDIT: Oh yeah, I had a question. Is that an e30 m3 spoiler on that red e30 in the shop?

I have never driven a saleen but driven all the ferraris in the pics those are some amazing cars.

Yes thats a e30 m3 spoiler on my e30 had to custom fit it and it doesnt look to good when your up close but from far away its alright.
