Question for guys who actually have the the Roush Kit

[Stymee]

i have been with this thread since the beginning. Roush says it puts out 12psi. Dude who just bought kit after 160 pages is questioning Roush.

it’s 12psi. I promise. My logs say 12psi.

listen to the Internet’s. It has a warranty ffs

420 I’d relax, No reason to get snotty. I wanted real data, from a TEE’d boost gauge or Omega Boost box, not readings off a OBD port. Is that too much to ask?

The guy who MAY buy the kit

Not being snotty. I’m being straight up ;)

I bought the car from the original dealer as used with 2400 miles on it. The salesman I bought it from had purchased it new and had just upgraded to a 2020. The way the warranty was explained to me was that what was left of the original 3/36 warranty would still be in effect. And the 3/36 warranty on the new Roush blower would be in effect for 3/36 from the date that Ford installs it for me, on the blower itself - NOT the powertrain.

Are you guys that are running the Roush system running pump gas or full strength ethanol? Reason why I'm asking is because a well known and respected tuner stated that he will NOT do a tune on a 2018+ boosted car on pump gas, but will tune a boosted car on full e85 or race fuel. He stated that with the 12:1 compression ratio, that it's a disaster waiting to happen. I found this out after I paid for my Whipple.

pump gas because that’s what it is meant to run on. You would ah e to get a custom tune to run it on E85. The canned tune is for 91/93 octane.

I’ll be ready to race at EvolutionX Rental, placing my order with Beefcake tomorrow, I was going to order Tuesday but I wanted to use a new Amex that gave me $210 cash cash

Just would be nice to see a ported boost gauge reading max pressure?

I’m going to using shell 93 at the track, no boostane nor race fuel, however I may bring 3 gallons of Sunoco 260 ( NO MMT) if the log shows KR.....Then I’ll splash it

Edelbrock says 10-11 psi with a 3.25 pulley and 11-12 with a 3.00 pulley. Roush uses a 3.15 pulley and both EB and Roush use a 2.65 TVS blower. I don't know if that means anything or not but Roush does say 12 psi and that seems to be what owners are seeing.

I haven't given much thought to a catch can but I probably will get one. I want to get my tech's opinion about it.

I love this thread.

Which one do you have?

 

[hossman]

Definitely get a catch can if your running boost.

If it is 12lbs as said then if did custom tune it, I’d go one pulley size up but again I truly think it’s closer to 10-11...

I could be wrong, God knows I’ve been before

It's 12psi. It's widely reported as 12psi and I also consistently was getting over 11 on short wot pulls the one day I monitored it and iat2'a.

I see 12 psi on the ngauge on WOT pulls

 

[Jmtoast]

yes thats because its "700 horsepower and 610 lb-ft of torque at 12psi with 91 octane fuel"
