Yes it's the stock Roush tune. I was told if you don't stay with the Rouse tune then Roush voids their warranty.

Hey Tooltime, I've been following your install since early this year. Have you put many miles on it yet? Any problems or querks? The reason I ask is that mine sometimes has a bit of a jolt during moderate acceleration. Nothing major, I've never had a supercharged car. I though it might just be excess pressure being released.

This is my first s/c and I really never noticed a jolt but then the 2 days to try it out I had it was a massive jolt cause I was riding her hard to try it out. I will let you know in acouple weeks hopefully when snow is gone how it is .

So did you have the dealer put the SC'er in as soon as you bought it I assume? How much did they charge you on labor? Glad you like it so much. I'd be dangerous with a SC'er.

Yeah, I bought the car at a Roush authorized dealer in Houston. They put the charger on before I took delivery of the car. It was $5200.00 for the parts and $1200.00 for the labor. I had gotten another quote from another dealer in Dallas. They wanted $6900 for the charger and $800 for the labor. I'm not sure where they got their parts number from. The Roush guidlines are 8-10 hours to install. At $90-100 per hour it's about a grand or so.

RE: Love my new Roush charger

I paid a total of 6 grand, 5000 parts and 1000 labor, but like I said i a previous post, my dealer screwed up the install and Roush had to fly a guy here to do it right. No problems since, altough Im calling tomorrow about a slow Idle problem that has developed. Car Idles at around 850, then drops to 500 intermittently. Could be because I have an 05 charger setup with an 06 tune they re-did. Ill let yall know

Oh, and BTW, I just got the suspension in. It really makes a difference. Ride isnt rough, and it seems to hook up better, but its raining here tonight, so I have her in the barn.

RE: Love my new Roush charger

Just got back from my first trip to the track!

13.29 best quartermile time, spinning down the strip!!!! I had to make an extra shift, thoug, and Im not used to having to shift to fourth. I think she will handle the 4.10 gears, though, so that is my next quest. That and hraders. Anyone have any ideas on headers?
