I finished up the install this afternoon on my 2012 Mustang GT auto.
I would like to thank Chuck@Evolution Performance for some advice he gave me. And my buddy Fred for coming by yesterday to help with the wiring.
I haven't been able to go WOT due to the stock tires being bacon in a hot frying pan. I'll have the race tires mounted some time this week.

going for broke

looks great! roush tune or custom tune?? what kind of power numbers are you hoping for?

Scuba-Matt

VMP tune. Hoping for 500 at the wheels. It also has catless Stainless works long tubes.

VMP tune and headers I think you should be closer to 600 at the wheels. What size pulley?

Sweet! Any video of this beast in action? I want to hear it!

Scuba-Matt

Yeah the stock tires are useless after half throttle.

Stock for now, I ordered a 82mm this morning.
It doesn't sound much different. The TVS isn't audible over my exhaust.

Looks awesome!!!

I'm looking VERY hard at making this upgrade myself.

I'm sure you looked real hard before making the plunge - what made you decide to go with the Roush over the other options?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

How much trouble was grinding the timing cover?

I've had a Whipple in the past and really liked it, but I'm having trouble justifying the extra cost.

Would you do it again?

The Roush 2.3 and the Whipple 2.3 are pretty even up to about 14 psi of boost. and with a stock lower end I won't be going over 9 psi of boost.
so it came down to $$$$$$
JDM had a black Friday sale 10% off their list price on everything including blowers
So the Roush blower ended up costing 2k less than I could buy the Whipple or KB for.
The Roush looks good under the hood too, so does the Whip. I'm not a fan of the way the Magnugson, KB or Edelbrock look under the hood. (not hating just my opinion)
I haven't had experience with centrifuge blowers so they were out of the equation.
And I know Roush will stand behind their product,

2012GTCS

Sweet man!gotta see some videos soon!!!

Dam all you bastards getting superchargers. I want one so bad but haven't even had my 12 out for a full summer season yet. So maybe for summer '13 I'll treat myself

Scuba-Matt

I don't think you'll have any regrets.

Scuba-Matt

Awesomeness!!!!! I remember when I first drove my car after the KB 2.8 was installed

the acceleration is wicked with a blower.I was picked on by a unsuspecting Vette late one night and boy was he surprised.

It was not a Zo6 but a Vette none the less and I made quick work of him.

enjoy your new rocketship

After having the Roush TVS on since March, I finally made it to the dyno to make sure the tune was spot on. (VMP 93 octane tune)
Kevin MacDonald Of JPC was down for a few days and checked my tune. The tune is spot on A/F's fuel trims etc.
With the stock pulley (6 psi boost) it turned out 555 HP and 505 torque.
I'll be out to the track Friday night. (PBIR)

Nice! My roush blower should be done next week. Waiting on the PCM from roush. Many have been telling me VMP is awesome with the roush blower,... I may get too anxious to wait for my tuner to work through the software.
