read on another forum that someone called roush and it was a printing error. it does NOT come with bottom end. as far the charger goes i believe they also told him it is the same charger going in the kr's and supersnakes but im not 100% on that.

The 725 version uses KB. I thought they all had KBs but i guess not.

Dont mean to sound like a rookie, but..
How did Roush get to be known for poor performance?
I watched an episode of top gear where they paired a Roush stage3 vs a shelby GT500 (convertible) and the Roush won due to better handling.

The KR uses the same supercharger as the regular GT500 with the same boost. The 40hp comes from airflow and tuning. The SS uses the upgraded TVS for the 600hp version, and I believe they use a twin screw for the 725 hp version.

Bingo, My buddy's p51 has 510hp on the hood scoop. The article's headlinewas "sensationalistic" to get you to read it

Can you post some links of a stock roush charger kit producing 700hp on an S197 3V?
The article clearly states that the new roush kit is 510hp and can support up to 700hp with additional tuning and modifications, much like the kenne bell and whipple kits which come with around 500hp and are capable of 24psi with the right supporting modifications. Believe me, those modifications are not cheap, and when push comes to shove, twin screws are still more efficient than roots.

I’d be interested in reading it as I haven’t seen any that I can remember or think of.
