Question for guys who actually have the the Roush Kit

[JasinEdward]

Nitto 555Rii 305/35r19 on heavy-assed wheels. Lol. I didn't shut down between the first 2 runs. Sat in staging lanes about 20 minutes or so with engine running between the 2. I was in the staging lane for my 3rd run when someone dropped oil on the track and there was a 30 minute delay. I shut it off during that time.

I need to get a drag pack too....

Did you run them down at 18psi cold?

I ran at Brainerd yesterday. I never run quite as good there as I do at Rock falls, Wisconsin. However, my car is super consistent. I am working on improving my 60. I was really hoping for 1.50s and 10.8 but not this time.

First run: Too much wheelspin.
Second run: Not enough RPM at launch.
Third run: About right given the track was starting to lose grip.

You are definitely consistent!

No. Ran about 25 PSI. I tried lower a few weeks ago and they spun on the rim. Besides, I had more hop at low pressure than the 25 PSI.

Seriously, I think the car could make passes all day long and never vary more than a tenth.

Without a drag pack, weight reduction or a more aggressive tune, I suspect 10.8-10.9 is about as good as I can run at my tracks. Stock 2018-2020 Mustangs were running mid 12s yesterday.

Weird. They usually won’t spin on the rim until under 17.

Yeah, I was surprised. One moved a good 3 inches. Had them rebalanced.

I have them put the 4X4 bead glue in all my DR’s. They never move.

Roush 2650 on E85

Its funny, u guys must be so happy with all the talk about the EPA screwing with the aftermarket that you went with the Roush Stage 2 kit, most of you are on the emission’s kit with the Stage 2 tune and have nothing to worry about vs the Edelbrock & Whipple guys and as we all know the Stage 2 runs easy 10’s on pump gas

Ford & Roush for the win

…emission’s kit with the Stage 2 tune and have nothing to worry about vs the Edelbrock & Whipple guys

Whipple has been 50-state for some time.

 

[jhunt47]

Whipple has been 50-state for some time.

Not yet available for the 2021 from what I was told.

 

[hossman]

Whipple can’t even get a kit out. Not good for business. VMP is grabbing a lot of would be Whipple customers due to no inventory.

 

[Stymee]

Whipple has been 50-state for some time.

Watch how quick Whipple will lose that 50 state cert once the Lev standards come into play, Roush is a HUGE company and Ford will continue to partner with them to produce supercharged Mustangs that are 50 state compliant even after new emission laws go into effect

Everyone else will be left in the dust, don't get me wrong I think its a joke because it takes jobs away from hard working people but I truly think its gonna happen sooner than later

 

[engineermike]

You were congratulating everyone for their prior roush purchases because they are emissions legal (even though prior Whipples are as well) because some day in the future Whipple might not be able to meet emissions. Got it.
