I feel your pain. I made the same mistake and switched to Whipple. It was worth the money to me, and I recouped some of the loss by selling the kit. With the Roush, I would basically get one pass, then it was heat soaked and I might as well go home. If you can figure out a way ($ wise) it might be worth it. Everyone's priorities are different of course, but with how often I track the car, it was worth it to me.
Borla atak cat back?My new exhaust project… well I should say my new exhaust and my shops new project. 3” from the collectors back. Should open up the flow just a little bit for my Roush!
A centrifugal delivers its power very linearly with rpm, much like the n/a powerband, there is just more of it. There is no real torque surge like when a turbo spools up, and there is no real overabundance of low rpm torque like the PD blowers which deliver it pretty much at any rpm. It really comes down to how you want the power to be delivered.
I would love a sound clip when done. I want a cat back but cant decide on a system. Right now its between a corsa double H but add a resonator (two bottles or the one your using), magnaflow xmod though i wish it was a h pipe resonator and 304 throughout, or stock gt500. I have things i like and dislike on everything i see on the market....
I am supercharged and running catless headers and have active exhaust. I dont dislike the factory active with the h pipe resonator delete however its to raspy when i get on it and i would like the larger pipe dia for better flow.
My car does heat soak but no where near as bad as it did before I put the killer chiller on which helps recover pretty quickly. I wished for awhile I had gone with a Whipple but I’ve been looking more an more at Centris lately. I’m sure I could break even on cost of supercharger what I could sell the Roush and killer chiller for together for say an ESS kit. Biggest issue for me is the down time between the two because lead times are a ways out there for ESS and even Whipple as you well know. The car is my daily driver but I literally live across the street from my job so walking isn’t out of the realm of things. So many ways to go just comes down to the sacrifice I’m willing to make.
