It's real, and it's fabulous. Unlike many other hood scoops available for 2005-2008 Ford Mustangs, Saleen's Super Shaker is functional - and in more ways than one.
Yes, like the shaker hoods of days gone, the scoop does shimmy from the vibrations of the motor. Although that's a neat piece of nostalgia, we're more impressed with the fact that it acts as a direct cold-air intake for Saleen's twin-screw supercharger.
When fitted to a stock 4.6-liter V-8 of a Mustang GT, the Super Shaker reportedly boosts power to anywhere between 500 and 700 hp. Kits designed for the Mustang GT start at $6949 and include the supercharger, while those designed to retrofit Saleen-tuned 'Stangs run around $1600.
