So i've had my '07 GT for a year now and finally have the money for a supercharger... I really want a roush m90, i know its not the best s/c out there, but i dont need 500rwhp just looking for around 375-400... anyways, does anyone know where the cheapest place to buy the kit is? the cheapest i can find is $4999... any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

 

ebay or just keep checking classifieds

 

call up Roush themselves

I got my blower from them directly for $2,300 in 2008.


they have a eBay page as well where they liquidate their older stock that is still new. It can't hurt to call 'em up and ask. they might have something

 

2300?!?!?! what? its listed for $4999 on their website... are you sure you're talking about the same thing, I find it hard to believe you got an m90 for that cheap directly from roush

 

yep, $2,300 for the Roush blower for my 2006 F-150. and I saw a few of them go for $2,100 after I posted up my install thread

Roush was clearing inventory out for the 2009 F-150 line-up and I got their blower dirt cheap.

They are still occasionally offering it up at their eBay site. Getting rarer though: Roush Overstock on Ebay


but to be sure, this is the one I'm talking about. It's a M90 right?really miss that damn truck...alot

 

Go to yatesperformance.com or blueovalindustries.com.

 

ha ha, the problem is that you'll get used to 375hp really quick I've gotten used to 473whp really quick

that's a really small blower for our cars and it's going to be struggling to deliver the power. I know you say that 375-400hp will be fine for you but you probably said that the GT with 305hp was fine too that blower will be closed to maxed out day 1 which means you won't be able to upgrade things later on.

it's up to you, for a really cheap price then it's probably worth it to get the roush. otherwise go with the Kenne Bell or Whipple and then you have the option for more power later on without needing a whole new kit. if anything get the Kenne Bell or Whipple with a low PSI pulley if you're worried about the extra power on the stock motor.

 

with the m90 blower pushing 5 psi of boost stock pulley long tubes non catted mid pipe a steeda open airfilter and maf upgrade aand a good dyno tune you can easily reach 430 rwhp and if you want more you can always upgrade the pulley and through in some supercharger stage 2 cams and probly reach 460rwhp....

 

Thanks for the replies guys! Anyways i've done some more research and comparing, and for the price of the frpp whipple H/O (cheapest i could find was $5600) and the roush m90 (cheapest i could find $4300). I found the frpp whipple non intercooled for $4300 as well but its not intercooled and i really would prefer to have an intercooler. I've decided i'm gonna go with the roush and I am alot more comfortable at 5 psi than 11 psi, also gonna pull the trigger on a roush body kit, so it would only be right to have a roushcharger under the hood! My next question is, does anyone have experience installing this particular roushcharger? I read thru the instructions and it seems pretty straight forward, but the part about sawing off 2 of the factory mounts on the alternator, is that necessary, or is it just for appearance?

 

personally I would never go boost without an intercooler but it's up to you. the biggest benefit of the intercooler is that you'll be much more consistent from run to run since you won't get heat soaked. also you'll be much less likely to get knock from insanely high IAT's.
