Was invited down to SMS yesterday for a tour, OMG! is alls I can say. Sean treated us very well. And is truly genuine when it comes to helping us Mopar guys out. These guys are completely off the charts, There 150,000 sq ft. facility is state of the art. There engineering team is top notch. They produce, R&D, Track Test, and perfect every part prior to its release. The 6.1 Blown Hemi Motor is in a Glass Room like a Chimpanzee at a research lab. Im not sure just how much Im allowed to say. Drivability is of the utmost importance to Sean and his team. They are very much aware of what other blowers are doing, and more importantly "NOT" doing. We will probably be setting up a M&G at there facility in the very near future. Final Development of the Saleen Challenger and all its modifications is well under way. There very much aware of our current issues, TCM, Tranni, and Tuning. Sean and his team have all 3 of those areas completely solved they assured me. Theve also told me they will have complete solutions for Magnums, 300's, Chargers, Jeeps as well. This is very very real folks. __________________
*edit* I contacted SMS. Sean was very helpful. They will be bringing good things to the Mopar world.:thumb3:
Thanks for posting Chris. If this pans out it may be a great option for me later on. Luckily, I can't pull the trigger on anything for at least four months. You can't go wrong spending your money on a name like "Saleen"!!
Just echoing Chris's impression. Their facility is total and completely over the top, bad to the bone. You name it..............they got it. There is nothing they can't make and test thoroughly. After watching everyone around here develope thier FI offering for our rides. My money is on SMS for the best of the best. Me, I'll be saving my pennies. And BTW guys, they plan on much more then just engine mods..............so get ready for a total one source solution.
WOW, sounds awesome!! Now perhaps you two could have mentioned the Connection and get them to, um, advertise their wares here as in a "Supporting" <cough> "Vendor" <yack> <hatooya>....maybe when they're ready to be a 1-stop shop! Very exciting news.
lol, with names like saleen...prob not. but hey go to costco, stock up on ramen and you will get that extra cash in no time!
Thanks guys. I told you I was still in town. Oh, no I didn't. LOL I would have loved to have gone with you.
In do time, I think it was bad enough they had to keep stepping over our tongues, let alone hit them up for something. :bigwink:
