The S281-E (E is for "extreme") is the street-legal version of the car that Saleen fields in the SCCA's Speedvision GT road-racing series. Think of it as the equivalent of the Porsche 911 GT2, specially since this car does the quarter-mile in about eleven seconds, hich is almost as quick as the GT2.Under the Extreme's hood lies the supercharged and intercooled, OHC 4.6-liter Ford V-8 from the Saleen S281, umped up to produce 425 horsepower. The sixty additional horses come from a combination of more boost and a higher (6500-rpm) redline. To live with such performance, aleen's technicians have given the engine a complete makeover from intake to exhaust, ith everything from a forged crankshaft and new cylinder heads to a Kevlar-reinforced clutch and a close-ratio, ix-speed gearbox.In fact, early every piece of competition-grade hardware in the Saleen catalog is in place. Besides all the engine pieces, here's a new suspension setup, limited-slip differential, hirteen-inch front brake rotors with four-piston calipers, nd 35-series Pirelli P Zero tires on eighteen-inch wheels.The miracle here is that this car is utterly docile. Sure, t hooks up and drives out of the corners like a racing car, ut it doesn't punish you when you drive it to the store. Aside from tire noise, he Saleen Extreme even rides quite well.The base price of $59,995 for the S281-E coupe ($63,894 for the convertible) sounds like too much to pay for a Mustang, ut Saleen already has thirty examples in the pipeline for customers who have put down cash, nd his dealer network is calling for fifty more.Upgraded parts installed
