clark17357 Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Chris, Thanks for posting the photos. Your car looks great! Love to see some additional photos when you have a chance -- like photos with the hood open so we can see the blower and the underside of your hood.

Doug_GT350 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Dumb question for you guys.... It's been so long since I had mine out of the garage. I started it tonight to warm it up and charge the battery and the fuel pressure was showing 30 - 35, for some reason I thought it was higher than that. What are you running?

shelbytexan Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Picked up SGT/SC #304 from Quantum today.Whipple 550 install. I have 491 hp and 452 torque. I have jba shorty headers and 1 piece aluminum d.s. Is this considered good numbers. This seems a little low considering the headers and d.s.

SoDakMac Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 White 07 SGT now has 550 Ford Racing Whipple 550 installed. Since I live out near the boondocks and many miles from Vegas I decided to take a chance on my local Ford Dealer for the install. The Master Tech that did the install had a lot of fun at my expense. He insisted that we go on a checkout ride together and we both had a difficult time wiping the smiles from our faces upon our return. I was lucky to find a caring and skilled technician at a local shop. He did a very nice job and we are both happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zrdstr3 Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Had my polished whipple installed by Powered by Ford in Orlando, Florida. Had some detonation with the Ford Racing Tune that took about 13 downloads Ford Racing before it was resolved. Took a few weeks to get it right but it was worth it.

I was lucky to find a caring and skilled technician at a local shop. He did a very nice job and we are both happy. I did the same thing. I had our local dealer do it. I've done a lot of business with them and they know me. I do trust those guys quite a bit. Now if Shelby will cough up the scoop and stripes so they can get that issue resolved I can finally drive it. After the SC was installed I gave the Tech (Jeremy) permission to drive it. I told him to not be afraid to get on it to see if the belt will hold. He reported back that it did and stated, "Thats how these cars should have come from Shelby." I think that made his whole week. :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csm198 Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 2007 Black SGT/SC #3457, Polished Paxton installed by SAI. Picked up two years ago in October. At one time I had heard that there were only 46 LV factory installed Paxtons on the 07's, 7 black and 39 polished. Could be wrong, but the source was fairly reliable . . . you are wrong about one for sure . I have an unpolished paxton on my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyPilot Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 The 46 number is "unofficially" correct. However, it is 39 polished and 7 satin. I don't recall black being available. Roger posted the 46 number in a thread and I have the break down from a SAI source. post #14: http://www.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php?/topic/56390-how-many-shelby-gtsc-s-were-built-with-paxton/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgguy09 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 Hey guys, I'm currently looking into what super charger to upgrade...I'll be shipping off to Iraq next year & I figured I'm going to treat myself. I was wondering if you guys could fill me in on which SC you feel is better I'm looking into the 2.6 Kenne Bell right now...but I've heard of problems with belts. I was also wondering how much you guys paid in service & other charges...id est, what exactly will I spend when I pick one of these up (not including degreased gas mileage!)

Strawman Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 2008 GT/SC 08SGT0682 Vista Blue Auto vert. I believe the only 2008 SGT with a Paxton installed by SAI.......until it had to be removed due to the whole CARB fiasco. Eventually got the polished KB installed. Just had vehicle shipped from my folks home in Scottsdale where it's been pretty much sitting for the past four years to my home in Florida. Car has just over 4k miles, it is beautiful and awesome to drive. Resurrecting this OLD thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 2008 Vista Blue 5-speed coupe, #0282, had the Paxton installed at SAI in the January 2008 time frame. I left the car with Bud at SAI after the first Bash in early 2008 and Bud sent me photos of the Paxton install. My car was at SAI until August 2008, when it was delivered to me in San Diego with the polished KB in place of the Paxton due to, as you so perfectly summarized it, the CARB (California Air Resources Board) fiasco. I sure liked the look of the Paxton on the car but only the 2007 guys were able to get it equipped that way through SAI. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawman Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Jim, nice to hear from you again, I've been away from these boards for a LONG time. Like I said, I left the car in Scottsdale for these years, finally got around to having it shipped home to Florida. I forgot how truly beautiful it is. I didn't remember that you also had the Paxton installed, I thought I was the only one. Now that I have the car, I have a million questions, hopefully these boards are still active enough to squeeze out some info. I hope you and your GT/SC are well.

I was not aware that some 2008 SGT cars got the Paxton installed and then had to have them removed. I guess it only worked for the 2006-2007 Shelby.
