Adding a roush charger?

Ok, I was looking on roushperformance.com, and they have different roush chargers for sale. If I wanted a roush charger for my 2010 mustang, do I have to add anything else other than the charger to get going? Or do I only need the charger? They offer the same charger that is in the 427R for 5 grand.
Also, how hard is it to install on your own?

Thanks.

It's relatively easy install if you are comfortable working on cars.

If you want the warranty it has to be installed by an authorized roush installer or Ford dealer.

If you buy the $4999 kit from roush it has everything you need and comes with a overnight box to send your PCM to roush to get the new tune flashed onto it and then they overnight it back to you.

There is a thread in the 4.6 modifications section.

What they sell you is a complete install kit, it's very comprehensive. A buddy and I put an M90 Roushcharger kit on his 2006 GT racer. Between the two of us, it took an entire weekend--but it was relatively easy work. The hardest part was rerouting and soldering wires. The instructions that come with the kit are great.

You'll need a dremel or grinder for a couple areas (alternator ear, pulley bracket). Everything else simply bolts on.

The Roush harness is plug and play now, no cutting and soldering any more.

Then it should be "a snap".
