By combining the proven efficiency of the Saleen series VI intercooled supercharger with that of the new and highly efficient SuperShaker(TM) induction system, SpeedLab has brokered the perfect marriage, bringing together Beauty AND Beast for the first time.
For decades, the two theories of air induction were separated. With this revolutionary new system, SuperShaker(TM) couples the best of both worlds. The "ram air" design and functionality of a true shaker hood is now mated with the forced air induction system via an intercooled, twin screw Saleen series VI supercharger. Saleen SpeedLab is the first and only manufacturer offering this highly engineered technology to the market.
"For the first time ever, consumers do not have to sacrifice muscle car styling to get more power and performance," says
PERFORMANCE
The SuperShaker(TM) induction path is much shorter and less restrictive compared to existing designs, and is a true "cold air" intake that is sealed off from the engine compartment, thus enhancing vehicle performance. The SuperShaker(TM) induction system sits above the hood and is isolated from the hot air in the engine compartment. This is especially beneficial in static situations such as at stop lights or take off during drag racing. Once up to speed, the shaker hood scoop rams fresh cold air into the air box where it is pressurized, allowing greater boost at higher speeds.
The ground-breaking design efforts at Saleen have resulted in a durable design that can withstand the harsh environment of everyday driving. By angling the custom air filter forward, water and debris will be deflected down to the bottom of the air box where it can be evacuated and not affect the performance of the filter. There are two molded pieces that make up and include the air box, providing a skirt that mounts to the rear of the box which protects the compartment from water, debris and environmental hazards. This unique design does not require any extraordinary mounting or securing devices, allowing the air box to utilize the maximum space available within the tight constraints. The result is a larger surface area for the air filter and compact OE style look.
"The shorter intake and minimal restriction allows for more cold air to be available to the engine immediately, resulting in less lag time and quicker throttle response," says
