DIY Roush install... anybody done it themself?

[Backinblack]

Do you have the Roush installed? Noticed you are in Vancouver, would like to know who did it for you as I am thinking going that route too.

Not installed yet, still waiting for it to show up. I'm considering doing it myself.
If a do get it installed, I'll probably use Jawanda Motorsports located in Surrey.
They come highly recommend and pretty much only work on Ford. Pretty well known for supercharging Mustangs, dyno-tuning etc. I'm not sure he's done any Raptors though.

@HAP, I was wondering if you tried the Roush tune at all? Did you just load the JDM tune right away?

JDM only. I did not even bother with the Roush. Plus its extra and you have to send off your PCM. No thanks...

JDM kit is a no brainer for the price considering you need a tune anyway. I've heard the Roush tune is about as good as the factory tune meaning absolute shiat.

Same as the other guys I got the instructions from Roush to look over and it's simple. Would actually be a very enjoyable project over a weekend. Always seem to find something more practical to spend the extra cash on so I haven't pulled the trigger.

There's nothing more practical than dumping tons of money into our already bad ass trucks don't be silly. Lol. At least that's what I tell my wife when she says she doesn't understand why I don't spend my money on things for her. Lol.

I have a Whipple setup sitting in my garage that I'm getting ready to install myself real soon. I'll let you know just how much of a pain in the ass it was when I'm done. I'm planning on taking some detailed pics and doing a write up on the process. I have a set of headers I plan on installing at the same time and they have me more stressed out and worried about installing than the SC. Hey @JimIII@JDM do you guys have a good tune for the Whipple setup also. I'm running the SVC on my other truck and wanted to try out something different on this one to compare the two.

If you have any hair left after installing your headers, let me know. I had mine installed, but if I had a s/c, I would install that myself, no problem. jdm does tons of whipples btw.

Yes we do offer custom tuning for your combination! Give us a call sometime at 732-780-0770. We have done tons of both Roush and Whipple blowers, honestly the Whipple is a little easier, both take about 1-2 days.
