[QUOTE="Rappedtor, post: 1432197, member: 38632"] Hey there guys, TL : DR 1. Necessary parts that compliment JDM Roush upgrade kit? 2. How bad is gas mileage difference? 3. How big of a smile did you have after the upgrade kit install? 4. Is pedal commander necessary or does JDM tune solve this problem? 5. Thank you for all of the support guys, you have been extremely helpful in this journey already! I'm in the process of finalizing a deal on a 14' phase 1 Roush Raptor w/45k miles. During test drive I noticed the hard shifting and also limitations that the tune presented. I could just feel the trucking wanting to push harder but being incapable due to the golden handcuffs from the tune. I reviewed the forums before test driving and overall everyone's comments here became very noticeable during the test drive especially when going wide open throttle from 15-75mph. This was the extent of the testing during the test drive. Albeit it brief, y'alls comments rang true. That said, Im very interested in the JDM Roush upgrade kit. Can you guys provide some advice/insight on some parts that would benefit the truck with regard to life longevity and overall health. I'm not looking to dump a ton of money into the truck initially; however, the JDM upgrade has become my main consideration. During install I would like to get some risk prevention seeing as 700hp has the potential of stressing other parts of the truck. I remember reading about getting billet oil pump gears; however, they now appear to be unavailable. I will be using the truck as a daily driver (12 miles per day total to and from work) and was wondering if there is a substantial gas mileage change. Obviously the truck is already at 11/12 miles per gallon as is but just curious. Also is a pedal commander necessary or does the JDM Tune fix the throttle response? I feel like I might be confusing throttle response with pedal response. [/QUOTE]
