what do you all think about the Roush Stage 3 upgrades? Thinking about roushcharging my car. Also, does anyone know how the Roush exhaust sounds? Just want the bolt on pipes.

Thanks,
Brian

 

Not sure about the exhaust. But i know roush makes a good supercharger for running a safe ride, and they warranty it. Only problem is they dont put out much power :-/

 

+1...So in my opinion its not worth the money

 

Roush exhaust = Borla = very nice sound.

 

i think the roushchager gives you 100 and then if you get the bigger pully then add 15

 

It sounds really great coupled with O/R x pipes and no cats

 

the roush exhuast sounds great. it even makes a 6'er sound pretty good

 

The only benefit to Roushcharging is the attached warranty. Its really all up to your needs.

Saleen offers a great unit if thats an option.

 

Borla's huh? Maybe I should go listen to a Roush start up and see if I wanna replace my Magnaflow....hmmmmmmm. Oh, and to some of us who have less money to throw around, a warranty can be a huge deal, especially if our Mustang is our daily driver! I'd be SOL if I had an unwarranted supercharger that crapped itself haha.

I can tell you from personal experience with my 427. I have the optional 8 lb pully with corresponding tune from Roush. Keep in mind that stated numbers from Roush are conservative as is their tunes to a point. My 427 will still snap your neck back. Conservative is not bad when you consider the quality of our gas today. Yes you can get more power and yes I know most on this sight tend to be hard on Roush.

Based on the Dyno results of another 427 identical to mine taken on a cool day - HP is as follows

Approx - 450 HP at Crank
a little over 400 HP at the rear wheels
around 400 ft lbs torque.

On a warmer day results will be somewhat less as we all know. Still not bad in my book.
