What do they mean when they say "twin supercharged"? Is the announcer saying "twin screw" or does he mean "two superchargers". The later makes less sense.

That would be sweet to have two superchargers on the motor. Just like this

If I'm not mistaken isnt Saleen its own company that make its cars based on Ford's products and sells them at certified Ford dealers that have to specialize in Saleen's. So really Ford didnt do anything but give Saleen the truck and they are the ones who made it. Dont get me wrong got nothing against Ford hell its the only car manufacturer that I've bought from but Saleen should get all the credit for this truck. Hopefully it will be at the auto show Saturday cause I will get tons of pics. Always been a fan of Saleen's work have loved every car they have ever made. I just wish they would work more with Ford and do more of there cars and not just the mustang, focus, and now f-150. Anyone remember the Explorer Saleen what an awesome SUV. Think about if this happend A Saleen Marauder. I hope they get ahold of a Fusion or a 500.

It will be at the Autoshow. It is out in the concourse outside the main floor. This is where Saleen always has cars in the front where the coatcheck and ticket booths are.

It's a twin screw supercharger, an autorotor if I remember correctly.

So you're saying quantity as in horsepower numbers, or quantity as in the amount of superchargers? Anyways...

What's the point of two when it spits out less than a Trilogized Maraduer? :dunno:

Holy crap. Guys, there aren't two superchargers on the damn thing. It's got a twin screw autorotor on it. Whoop dee doo...

And I bet it is no faster than your truck Logan. 450 hp in a truck that weighs as much as that truck does does not translate to a Ram SRT-10 beater.

Actually, the twin screw is more efficient and is making more power at the same boost...

But that being said, you're right, the weight of the new F150's severely prohibits it's SRT10 killin' abilities without some serious effort.

Not that'll stop me from tryin' dammit...
