    Just checking in with my first post. Car is a 2008 SGT coupe. Bone stock currently with modifications to come at the Mod Shop in Las Vegas. Jim

    S/C, some front end body work (lower grill with brake cooling ducts, fog lights); brake upgrade, center dash instrument panel; CS/6 hood; wider wheels and tires. I expect my call to the SAI Mod Shop to come late December, early January. Jim

    Welcome, I love the CS6 hood, however I would check to make sure that hood will clear the supercharger. I know some have had clearance problems with roots and twin screw style superchargers. Keep us informed on your mod progress!

    True on the clearance issue. I am putting a Paxton on mine, which avoids the problem according to SAI. Jim

    The CS6 hood will clear the supercharger. But you may want to opt for the new Terlingua hood. It is similar to the CS6 hood with a functional air intake.

    Really? That is very interesting. Do you know of any links to photos of that hood? Thanks in advance. Jim

    The car was just announced by Shelby at SEMA this past week. By the time your car gets into the Mod Shop, perhaps the hood will be available for your car.
