Thanks Steve and Mark.
Yeah,....I really love the car. I had it out yesterday and hitting the go pedal in 4th gear is so intoxicating. I could hear a slight whine. (It was about 50-52 degrees outside according to the car's reading.) I can only imagine if I had a Phase 2 or Phase 3 car how loud it would have been with an open cai. The car was running really well yesterday and pulling really hard.

That's what she said!!! Lol ok sorry I just had to say that.

Yeah Tony since I installed my new open CAI I can hear both it and the whine of the blower more now. It is definitely intoxicating. So you can buy ready made Roush phase 1,2, or 3 stangs in your year? What's the diff?

HA HAAAAAAAAAA

Yes, there are upgrade kits for the Roush cars. My car is a Phase 1 car, 565 HP and 505 lbs. of TQ in stock form. Those numbers are read as using the 91 octane. But since I am running 93 octane, it is closer to 585 HP and 515 lbs. of TQ.
The Phase 2 kit is 625 HP and 525 lbs. of TQ. The Phase 3 kit produces 675 HP and 585 lbs. of TQ. Both available for the 2013 and 2014 Stage 3 cars.
A friend of mine has the Phase 3 kit and his videos are on Youtube. Car is stupid quick and pulls like a freight train. There is another member here on the forum with a Roush car that has the Phase 3 kit from VMP Tuning and says the car scares him now. LOL

All those hp numbers are engine/crank hp right? 15% loss at the wheels? And is the primary difference between all 3 just the tune loaded into it? Same sized engine, blower, injectors, etc... Although you did mention different air intake.

So say you wanted to upgrade yours now to phase 3...what would need to do?

Correct Burton. Those are all crank numbers.
Here are the links to the Phase 2 and Phase 3 kits. They are more than just a cai and tunes.

VMP Tuning makes some killer upgrade kits for the Roush cars as well.

Finally took it out after 2 weeks of sitting.
Overtime at work = no time.

Thanks Steve, I appreciate it.
Yeah,......it's tough when there is overtime at work. I might take her out tomorrow as well if the weather is nice and if I have the time. That's the plan anyways. lol

It's great to see that you've been taking it out as much as you have been this year. So far the weather has been great this time of year....cool, crisp, sunny, and colorful....perfect conditions for our cars.

Thanks Tom.
Yeah, we've been very fortunate with the weather so far. It's been very cooperative. You explained the weather perfectly,.........."cool, crisp, sunny, and colorful....perfect conditions for our cars".

Well,......it's official. I got the title for the green machine in the mail today.
Weird how it came from the registry and not the credit union. Usually it's the bank whom mails out the title I thought? I've paid off many cars before and that's the way it's always been done. Don't really care though, as I have it in hand.

Thanks bro! These were from 2 weeks ago. I haven't driven the car in like 2 weeks now. No time. Overtime at work and then cleaning the yard on Saturdays, I have no time at all.
Hopefully I will take her out this weekend. That dreaded weather is coming.

I was bored and had some time later today, hence the sun going down, so I took the green machine out. Felt good after about 2 weeks of not driving it. Car felt very strong and was pulling.
Slight 4th gear whine again today. 4th gear and the tires broke lose a little.

Nice pics Tony... I'll have to live my pony craving through you now. She's put away for a 4-5 month slumber now.

Thank you Burton.
