"With the release of the fifth-generation Mustang comes a new Saleen variant, the S281 E—as the Mustang gets better, so does the Saleen. That’s a good thing for drivers, particularly when the supercharged V8 fires up with a rumble. There’s 550 horsepower residing under the low-ish hood (lacking a scoop or a bulge, because the supercharger and intercooler are integrated into a single unit that reduces total engine height), and no one would doubt it by looking at the car—nearly every panel of the S281 E is altered by Saleen to scream “high performance!” That’s a claim backed up by the S281 E’s high-speed capabilities—the sprint to 100 mph takes just 10 seconds, and there’s no letup in torque delivery. If thrust is the name of your game, then the S281 E delivers."—Official description[1]
The 2006 Saleen S281 E is a front-engined sports car by Saleen that is included in the Limited Collector's Edition for Forza Motorsport 2, and as standard in Forza Motorsport 3 and Forza Motorsport 4.
Synopsis[]
The S281 E (Extreme) is a more powerful variant of the S281, a series of Ford Mustang models tuned by Saleen, with this model being a derivate of the 2005 Ford Mustang GT.
Rated at 550 hp (410 kW) it is powered by a 4.6 liter Ford Modular V8 engine using a new twin-screw supercharger and water-to-air intercooler. It is also equipped with a six-speed transmission, as well as a front air duct and rear diffuser to improve aerodynamics that increase its top speed to 183 mph (295 km/h).[2]
