Need advice with which route to go.

Regarding the Roush BASIC/NO FEEwarranty, it only covers Roush parts. It won't replace your engine. You'll need the optional warranty for that which costs $ (not sure how much).

"This kit comes with an extended parts warranty (ROUSH Supplied Parts Only), which is good for 3 years or 36,000 miles from the date of retail purchase. An optional 3-year/36,000-Mile Powertrain Warranty is available, which is good for 3 years or 36,000 miles from the original vehicle in service date from Ford."

i bought mine with the car, its labled as like 1000 or so for bumper to bumper. but i had it all thrown in with the deal so im not sure what the total came out to. not sure if you can work deals on just buying the kit.

Another thing to consider is the BAP's that come with the higher HP kits.

I've seen several people post of their boost-a-pumps causing the stock fuel pump to go bad prematurely.

The Ford Racing/Roush Stage 1 (670 hp) does NOT need a BAP. The Stage 2 does as do all other options as far as I know.

Personally, I'd go with Stage 1 and skip the BAP and OPG/TG ... don't track the car so it rarely sees high rev's.

Thank you. If I wish to go Whipple stage 1 set up, will I need to upgrade OPG, CG , and BAP?

If you are not chasing numbers, the Stage 1 Whipple kit would suit you well. It's an extremely well put together kit, and the components and supplied tune from Whipple works great. Most stock cars will put down low 600's and the drivability would be fine for the Street. We always recommend OPG and CS for any Forced Induction application, but if you don't plan on revving your car to the moon, you could probably get away with it for a while. Give me a call if you would like to discuss some options, we're here to help. We'll have a ton of sales coming up for Black Friday and our 12 Days of Christmas promotion, so it would be the time if that's an option for you.

Would you recommend Whipple over Roush? If thats so, what would be the reason?

 

[rollingshi59]

Please dont take this the wrong way....

But if you are concerned with doing the proper supporting mods and worried about them costing to much then stay away from forced induction. They are a must for longevity, I even dove into forced induction without knowing everything. Now im aware that im about 10k cash away from where I would be comfortable with giving my car a beating...

I suggest you put a exhaust, intake, tune, D.R's and call it a day. car will be a blast

Thank you. This seems to be very realistic. For the supporting mods, what should I be working on? OPG,CG,BAP, and what else?
Thanks.

it's not required, it's one of those things we tell customers, if $$ is no object, then there is 0 downside to doing them. But on a stage 1 I don't believe it's "required"

Again, depends on goals, the roush is a very nice setup and will make for a very fun car.

The whipple has more growing potential for sure , especially with the new Gen 3 setups.

Again, budget and goals should be your deciding factor.

Going through the same process, and now that i have researched all of www. I’ve pretty much decided on the whipple stg2 gen3. No opg planned won’t be racing it no dragstrips here in denmark, just the ocassional High speed trips on the autobahn.
But the edelbrock e force keeps haunting me, especially the new tvs2650 unit. There’s just not much 1.hand experience on edelbrock in the forums. Why is that are they just not “good” enough or?

Hello, I am thinking of either go bolt-on or get Roush stage 1/Whipple stage 1 supercharger on my 2017 Mustang GT. I wish I can go with Roush or Whipple, but what concerns me is the reliability and money. I heard that OPG and CG are must do when going FI. Will my engine be safe and nothing to worry about when they are done? If there is more stuff I need to do for protection, how much will it totally cost? Except for regular supercharger oil change? I am not looking for crazy power(wishing around 600), mostly daily driving, no track either. Would be great if I can get some real advice. I really want power, but I probably will not be able to afford much once the car goes wrong, or engine blows up.
Thank you.

if funds are tight, probably best to stay N/A for now. Get some more miles on the car. Aside from that, you could hedge your bets with a kit with a more conservative HP rating, tuned for 91 octane and factory red line. Or an aftermarket warranty. Or both. And the ability to do some of your own repairs and maintenance.

just no one has had much good luck with the eforce.

you'll be happy with the stage 2 gen 3, should make some good power and whipples tune is really good.

let me know if we can help at all
