Roush TVS supercharger for 2024 Mustang S650

[Northern Goat]

Silly rational… people are having a bejesus time affording groceries today never mind $6K for a block (that would have been covered by warranty) or the ability “to just DIY” most average folks don’t have the know how or tools to “Just DIY” …

Save some face and just admit your warranty statement above was silly and we will all forgive you

If people are struggling to buy groceries, should they really own a Mustang?

Are people really putting a SC on their car and selling in less than 5 years? Am I an anomaly keeping my cars for a decade or more.

I put a Roush Phase 2 on my S550 back in 2022 and sold it a week ago.

Why? 750hp in the city I live is tits on a bull. There is no place in the GTA to really stretch the legs of the car without either putting yourself or others at risk.

Lesson learned. Having all that power was great, using all that power was few and far between and was a waste of $20k CDN (installed).

Got rid of my S550 with my roush phase 2 also. What's your plans for your DH build?

Much debate on this. NA this time around.

INTAKE: K&N Typhoon kit
EXHAUST: Kooks headers
RESONATOR: Steeda H-Pipe (although may skip that to keep it a little more quiet)

i know there's a lot of people waiting on this, but somehow roush's kit got carb approval before whipples, despite whipple seemingly having a massive lead time.
Roush link: https://www.roushperformance.com/pr...charger-launch-edition?variant=48028162949428
Carb EO: D-488-64
Whipple link: https://whipplesuperchargers.com/i-...ge-2-gen-6-3-0l-supercharger-kit-2024.html?q= and https://whipplesuperchargers.com/i-...ge-1-gen-6-3-0l-supercharger-kit-2024.html?q=
No carb EO for the whipple
Makes me wonder if there's some problems with the whipple kit (have heard of catalytic converters being blown out due to the whipple kit/tune)

Brenspeed went 9.9 @ 141



Simple mods in a full weight 2024 GT Auto with nothing but a Roush Launch Edition Supercharger, Kooks headers, QA1 Driveshaft, 81mm pulley (.5-1 pound more boost) and boostane. Dont forget the sticky tires you need traction we run ET Street R tires. Spare tire was removed thats the only weight mod. We ran with air box lids installed. We have not tested running with lids off yet. We ran in 75 degree decent air at 5-6pm in early September at Milan. Better air would be faster and worse air would be slower. Just facts!

Solid run for sure! My biggest takeaway is he’s using paddle shifters to go faster in manual mode.
I need to experiment with that next time out.

He didn’t say the difference, maybe he’ll comment on that

 

[robvas]

Wonder how much boost they end up with I didn't catch it if they said

 

[snakeyes]

Yeah - stupid waste of money. Putting money into an F150 XL, Regular cab, short bed 5.0 instead...
