Roush05

Hey guys, I'm sure most of you don't remember me. About 3 years ago I sold my Roush and bought an amazingly tame Cruze to get me through graduate school. I told myself the day that I got the Cruze that I would buy another Mustang when I got out. Well, the time is near and I am planning to buy one within the next 2-3 months. I have been out of the mustang scene for a while, so I have a few questions to help get me up to speed.

1) Enough time has passed now that there should be enough data. What is the rough max RWHP that a 5.0 Coyote can handle without forged internals?
2) Has the FI market changed much in the last 3 years or so? Are there any new twin-screw superchargers to look at?
3) In your opinion, what supercharger will get me to at least 550 RWHP with the least effort (cost effectiveness is a bonus)
4) Are there any known problems I should know about with the 2011-2014 5.0s?
5) Finally, is there anything in general that you think I should know about the 5.0s that I might not know now? Remember, I have been completely out of the scene (other than admiring mustangs on the road) for about 3 years.


Thanks guys!

I'd ask these questions in the appropriate year Tech section.

This forum has slowed down a bit since you left. And it's all your fault....lol.

Welcome back and good luck in your search.

Haha, I did post quite a few threads in my day. Thanks; I'll head over and post in there.

I hope to be posting pics/vids of my mustang soon!
