Default Installing a Saleen Blower on a Grand Marquis-Advice needed

I've come across a great deal on a Saleen roots type blower and I'm going to be putting it in my Grand Marquis(same as the Crown Victoria). I'm gonna have a friend help me out who knows a little more about cars than I do, but I still have a few questions about what is needed. First off, the Marquis uses a 2V SOHC 4.6 engine, the same basic engine as the Saleen. Will the stock intake work or will I need to buy a new intake for this application. If the new intake is needed, any ideas on which ones will work(blower is coming off of a 2002 Saleen Stang). I know I'll need fuel injectors, fuel rails(whatever those are, they come with the blower), the intake, and new PCM programming, and throttle body, but is there anything else, major, that I'll need to make this thing work. I've heard that you need a new fuel pump, I'll probably need a new MAF, but any light anyone can shed on this would be appreciated. Thanks.

Try to grab the intake from the Mustang. You'll need a better flowing exhaust as well.

You will need a new fuel pump to feed the motor with the blower on it, as well as a new MAF calibrated for the blower.
