Does the roush super charger need oil?

[seely]

I'm reading on some websites that the unit doesn't need to be filled with oil.

Want to know if that's true.

There is def. not an extra oil fill hole for that.

Thanks for confirming. Yeah, the kit didn't come with oil so this makes sense.

I did (at Ford) an oil change after install to 5W-50.
10 quarts, same amount as before.

I'm just referring to the super charger itself.

I know for a fact the motor needs 5W50 oil

Are you going to be road racing the car for 12-15 minute sessions in August? If not, don't use 5W-50.

I'm just going to use it because that's what everyone else does for their Roush street setup. That and i'll prob be driving it pretty hard, like I already do.
