Well, of course not. A base Audi A7 is, what, almost $70,000; a base Panamera, over $80,000?! With this, Ford is undoubtedly trying to capitalize on the success of the Mustang abroad — success that has seen it outsell offerings from the aforementioned German manufacturers.
Yes, you’re right. The 2018 Saleen Mustangs utilize an Edelbrock TVS with Saleen badges slapped all over it. The 2015-17 Saleens used Kenne Bell twin-screw superchargers replete with the requisite badging.
Fun fact: Rob Simons, the mastermind behind Edelbrock’s modern supercharger designs...
Thanks for the information. I will say that, if that’s, in fact, the supercharger in question here, then the title of the thread is a tad misleading. The VMP Gen 3 is an Eaton Roots-style supercharger and not a twin-screw.
I think it makes sense to move Mustang to CD6 and utilize slightly modified components from S550 such as the double ball joint front suspension and Integral Link IRS. The built-on-CD6 Lincoln Aviator, though in concept guise, seemed to indicate that S550’s IRS will fit.
