I just bought a Roush Supercharger for my 2012 5.0. How much boost should I go with?

I asked the shop doing the install about heat soaking when I was debating whether to get a Vortech or Roush when someone told me Roush TVS heat soak badly:
Sounds like something Whipple or Kenne Belle would say. TVS blowers dont heat soak, they are the coolest running of all rotor type. I check temperatures when we do dyno pulls, after 8 hards WOT pulls I could still touch Joe's Roush, 114°F.
Whipple....170° AFTER 2. And KB had to liquid the front bearing support LOL. He said it was called "Delta T"
Roush has the largest charge cooler core for the 5.0 too. You have to rotate the knocks sensors and reroute the wires to not pinch them because the tub is so big."

Here's a link on the Boss 302. Shows pictures of the internals and gives great information.

In terms of robust, I wouldn't push the Boss rods and pistons past 800-850rwhp. The crank can handle up to 1,400hp from what I've read and discussed with vendors.

I expected a little more meat on the Boss rods.
I'll probably put some H beams in mine.
As far as the douche goes, Probably a napoleon complex.

How much HP do you think the Coyote valve train can handle? I don't think I'd go over 750W -800W anyway. Thanks

I wouldn't push a Coyote with stock internals and valvetrain to beyond 725-750rwhp. Too many things come to mind that could go wrong.

You think 700WHP is safe on a Coyote? I don't know that.
I have a Boss 302 block but have the Coyote valve train. I heard that I should probably swap out the valve train if I wanted to go over 750W or so.
