On my 2011 GT the Roush Stage 2 with Roush tune gave me 399whp, with a custom tune it went up to 532whp, Roush tune is veryyyyyy conservative , runs very rich too way into the low 10.1's AFR. With a custom tune and street tires I did 11.64 @ 123mph with an automatic tranny and 4.10 diff. Cats still installed with ford exhaust. Great clean install supercharger........ Stage 3 coming soon.
We have seen the same that Roush tune is VERY rich....Be careful as they cant help you to "write out" downstream O2 sensors as we installed high flow cats there. Roush told that they can not do this because of law etc...they sell blower kit to make tons of more power over stock and this is allowed? :D Just be careful with Roush tunes...you cant get anything but the rich AFR tunes from them. Easier is to let some quality speedshop make custom tune file
Took me 4 days to install my phase 1 kit. It would have been 2 days with a better air supply, I was constantly having to stop grinding to wait for the compressor to catch up.
when you are selling one product and you mention the competition.....ouch.....I went with an all VMP setup after doing a lot of research. The VMP gen 2 R is the way to go for the 2.3 kits....awesome from the box with room for growth
Its my job to help customers better understand the differences between products- I'd prefer to be honest with people rather than say all blowers are created equal. -Justin
So Justin, I have a question. I live in MA and we have strict emissions testing here, unfortunately. I currently own a 2013 Roush Stage 3 Phase 1 car and would love to upgrade to the Phase 3. What makes the Roush Phase 3 upgrade kit not emissions compliant? Thanks!
As of right now, we currently have no ETA on when we will be receiving more of these guys. I'd highly recommend adding your email to the "notify me" window right below the price of the kit so we can reach out when its back in stock! -Zach www.americanmuscle.com/roush-r2300-phase-3-supercharger-1114gt.html
Justin you think this would be safe for a full bolt on Gen 1? I have a 6 speed 2011 mustang 5.0 I’m just missing cams. But obviously I would have to make adjustments to the set up but what exactly is safe for horsepower dealing with Gen 1 motors
I would like to have this on my stang and I have the money but I don’t have any shops that I can trust to do this work right here in B’ham ala any suggestions
This specific kit is designed only for 2011-2014 5.0L Mustangs, and will not be a direct bolt-up for F150 models. I'd highly recommend getting a kit made specifically for your application to avoid issues during install, like the following: www.americantrucks.com/roush-r2300-570hp-supercharger-phase2-1114-50l.html -Zach
Are you in Canada? If that is the American dollar that is about par.I am in Saskatchewan there is not a performance shop here i would pay to do it. I would be driving 8hrs to Alberta to find one.
To find the "true numbers", without bolt ons and the Roush calibration, look no further than the title of the kit "675HP and 585LB FT"- that's your answer. Now your numbers to the wheel will vary depending many factors including transmission to help you factor in drive train loss. But in my experience subtract roughly 100hp and 100ft lbs from the advertised crank numbers and you'll have a ball park idea of what the Roush Phase 3 kit & Calibration will do to the tires, give or take. And your comment about calling this a "VMP TVS" review couldn't be more inaccurate. The VMP TVS utilizes a completely different housing design and includes completely different components, so yeah.. its not a VMP TVS review. Instead a Roush TVS review with a custom tune, which is what most people will do anyway. ;) -Justin
AmericanMuscle.com the VMP has a different elbow and uses a JLT intake. I'm just saying if your going to show dyno numbers for a Roush stage 3, use the Roush tune 🤔. Just like when you guys do reviews on cold air intakes that don't require a tune, show dyno results with and without a tune. It would be nice to see.
I don't want to beat a dead horse but a completely different housing is not just 'a different elbow'- especially if you are referring to the GEN II-R kit which can be had for the same price as the Phase 3 kit from Roush. And JLT aside the VMP kit also includes different pulley, injectors, fuel rails, heat exchanger, throttle body, fuel pump booster, etc...so again, a different KIT. Both are great and make awesome power but calling the Roush the same as a VMP or vice versa is just inaccurate and our customers who might not be up to speed in the world of superchargers shouldn't be mislead. -Justin
Use basic math to get a close estimate. Most expect a 15% drive train loss. Multiply the advertised hp to the crank by 0.15. Expect higher numbers from a manual trans over an auto. Again, just referring to a motor in stock form, no mods.
How about like under the passenger seat??!!!! You could reach over at the red light pull the bottom of the seat up.And turn on the bottle VROOOM. !!!!!$$$$$$$
7Gs That is a lot of dough Then again cheaper than a super snake The question is though Does one need that much power to go get milk for little Johnny? I own a 14 GT and it has enough power to get me in trouble with the misses first and The lawmen
@@ilovechrysler3005 it’s what I ended up with my 3rd car at 20 years old and it the one I could afford with my credit I wanted an automatic but I couldn’t find one that my credit would allow. I saved up 5000 from the time I turned 16 till this year and finally bought mine this year 4 years later. I mean I could have bought a little v6 manual but I prefer my GT even if it’s an automatic

What was the 0-60 looking like?
4.10 years are a no
Do you have a regular 6r80 tranny or did you upgrade it to handle the supercharger ?
Took me 4 days to install my phase 1 kit. It would have been 2 days with a better air supply, I was constantly having to stop grinding to wait for the compressor to catch up.
Give one to me to demo on my coyote
Yes on any of these stage 3 kids I need a plug number for the roush stage 3 kit with overdriven pulley and small spacer part number for supercharger
Can you guys raffle one I need boost in my life
How can you tell the difference, I bought my mustang with this bad boy on it. But idk if it’s phase 1,2, or 3
Stage 3 is supercharged. So Stage 3, or if an actual Roush car an RS3
@@Jzintar I think he meant the differences in in the supercharger phase kits
What pulley was it dyno with? And how much boost does this pulley generate

Very safe. Especially if you’re running a bigger pulley.
A yo Justin, off topic, but any news/info, or guess of the 2018 GT500's powertrain??
Nothing yet, but we've been keeping our ears to the ground! As we get info, we'll definitely bring it to you guys! -Justin

Thomas Blair yes

Nice upgrade
Internals hold up?
Does anyone know if all cars from Roush factory 2011 to 2014 Stage 3 cars legal in the state of CA with such strict emission laws?
Do you know if this supercharger will fit a 2011-2014 Ford F-150?

In Canada a Roush Ford dealer charges just over $1,000 to install this kit.... Money well spent
Sir Loin Alot I spent 650$ at a Performance shop

Sir Loin Alot Nah I’m in Cali, lol damn that sucks 8 hour drive for a supercharger install?
What are the true numbers with no bolt on's and the Roush tune??? Might as well just call it a VMP TVS review

@zack would this kit be able to work on a 2016 mustang ?
This kit will not work on a 2016 GT, I recommend checking out our site for kits specific to your model year Mustang! -Zach
can you fill up with 91 if there isn't 93 nearby?
You'd probably wanna tune it to 91 then
you'll probably get knock especially if you beat on it.

That is a lot of dough
Then again cheaper than a super snake
The question is though
Does one need that much power to go get milk for little Johnny?
I own a 14 GT and it has enough power to get me in trouble with the misses first and The lawmen
Well milk spoils pretty quick, so the faster you get it the better right? -Justin

I’d say yes as you’ll get a hell of a lot more torque out of the 5.4/5.8 depending on the year you go with
