Default just added the BEST mod on my 2015 S550

Well I have owned my 2015 GT automatic for a year now. I have felt for the last 6 months it needed a boost in power as just about everything on the road is just as fast as my GT or not faster.

So I went big got the Roush Phase 1 supercharger kit. I had to wait a month to get it as it was on back order and it took me and the wife 3 days to install it.

I can honestly say I could not be happier and with the Mickey Thompson 305/35/20 tires in the rear this thing is fast and gets off the line like it should. Stock 5.0 N/A has nothing compared to this now wow I blown away

The cervini hood with the big open scoops so air will come in and cool the supercharger off as well

Because the airbox is closed ram air does very little. Hope you at least like the looks.

Actually it will remove heat from under the hood out.the super charger body gets hot compressing air and when in boost so the hood will work great
