Department of Boost ( DOB).

Looks like the manifold is machined from a block of alum.

So it seems the manifold is the trick to this up grade. What is the match up between manifold and SC? If for example you bought a KB package and then latter down the road you wanted to change up to a whipple. Could you just bolt on a different SC? The base bolt pattern between the manifold and SC would have to match and also the drive pulley snout and belt alignment would have to match.
If you can't interchange them you basically are over a barrel when it comes to future upgrades.

is many around at cheap price. from Shelby guys doing upgrades, I presume.
It seems the DOB manifold is a good option, from those who have used it, but still new and hard to get much real info on. Based on pricing for the whole thing
about half the cost of a new one. But you also have to be fairly mechanical to do this option.
Be nice to know someone who has done it and get real feed back.
The website has been under construction, seems like forever.

manifold, gt450, as it is suppose to produce 450 rwhp to a stock 4.6L 3V
Also my research shows me, this is one of the most expensive engines to put
an SC, much cheap for the older versions of these engines.

I bought a used saleen s/c VI something like this (Ford Mustang Forums) and installed it myself and couldn't be happier. It had everything except a BAP and HT0 plugs. The BAP I bought from Brenspeed so they updated my tune (free) to their Saleen stage 3 530 hp. HT0 plugs I bought in Great Falls Mt.
I checked out various sites about the seller and his history about the supercharger and apparently I did an ok investiagtion as everything turned out well. When I received it I took the snout off and as everything looked great I resealed it with high temp rvt (red) refilled with XL 4, installed it and viola - great. With this unit I reused my C & L Racer intake which was a saving). With a 3.4 pulley and Comp VSR 127300 cams (used by some Saleen Extremes) I already had, it sure pulls. I gave you a site as an example of what can be out there, but you have to be careful and check things out. I had it shipped to Montana Shipping,Sweetgrass, paid GST and took er home.

I ordered the DOB, manifold and have bought a shelby super charger, intercooler,
Cole air kit and Kenne Bell boosta pump. Need few other odds and ends.
I am in the process of removing the engine, as I want to paint it also.
so busy winter

Still stock. My car seems to have been strong right from new (knock on wood). Brenspeed assured me that their tune should be ok. I've been with their tunes since 2006 going through the intake SCT up grade, Delete plates, comp cams VSR 127300, upgrade to C & L Racer intake, and now the Saleen VI. I also run the GT500 TB which they said didn't require a tune upgrade. With my upgraded PA Auto transmission they felt my RWHP would be in the 455 range and that didn't include consideration of the Comp Cams VSR 127300s.
