The Roush R2300 Phase 3 kit will be for the S197 GT owners out there who are looking for
absolutely massive power gains over a stock or naturally aspirated setup and would like
to go with an all-inclusive turnkey kit from one of the leaders in aftermarket forward
tuning.
Now. in fact, Roush is gonna advertise this kit at 675 horsepower and 585 pound-feet of
torque at the crank.
Prospective buyers will be able to take advantage of Roush's optional 3 year, 36,000-mile warranty
when using their included calibration, which is a nice little peace of mind for those who
value a warranty.
Now of course, adding this much power to your Mustang doesn't exactly come cheap, as a Roush
kit will run you upwards of 7,000 bucks, and the install will be a bit of a test for my
weekend wrenchers out there.
So expect a full three outta three wrenches on the difficulty meter, with a little bit
more detail later in the video.
Well what do you say we dive headfirst in the what kinda power you might be able to
expect when using the Roush TVS Phase 3 kit on your very own Coyote-powered Mustang?
Now for those who have seen my build, you probably are already familiar with the capabilities
of this particular kit, but if not, here is the deal.
I installed the Phase 3 kit on my 2014 GT, along with some other bolt-ons, including
long tube headers, and the guys from VMP sent me one of their custom tunes, and here are
those results.
Baseline numbers for th 6-speed 5.0 liter GTs averages around 385 horsepower and 377
pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels.
With the Roush TVS blower installed, the car is now making 643 horsepower and 564 pound-feet
of torque, again, to the rear wheels.
Now that's good for peak gains of 258 horsepower over those baseline numbers, and gains of
as much as 269 horsepower and 217 pound-feet of torque under the curve.
Now obviously, there are a ton of variables at play here, guys, including your tune, your
existing bolt-ons, dynos, and condition.
So ultimately your results might vary slightly compared to what I saw with my car.
However, this was just to give you a better idea of what you might be able to expect with
your own Mustang at home when using the Roush Phase 3 kit.
But what do you say we break down this kit a little bit further and, without a doubt,
the star of the Roush Phase 3 kit is gonna be the Eaton TVS 2300 rotor pack, which is
the next generation or step up, whatever you wanna call it, from the older style Eaton
M122 roots [SP] blower, and that thing was found on cars like the Terminators, and even
the pre-2013 Shelby GT500.
Now the TVS or Twin Vortices Series is an extremely popular design that is gonna utilize
a twin four rotor load pack, and those are twisted at 160 total degrees, which is just
gonna create more of an efficient flow over those older style blowers, and essentially
is just able to make more power at lower boost levels.
Now that rotor pack is then loaded into what is called the rotor housing here, which on
the surface might look familiar and for good reason, guys.
Now that's because Roush, Ford Performance, VMP they're all gonna utilize a very similar
housing here, but there is one big difference between the Roush and the VMP option.
The Roush is gonna utilize a separate elbow, which you're not seeing here on the table
with me, whereas the VMP will incorporate a one-piece design, including the elbow, all
into the actual housing, which those guys claim is gonna be a little bit better from
a flow perspective, and can be utilized with a bigger aftermarket throttle body, such as
those big monoblades for instance.
But at the end of the day, as you guys saw, the Roush had no problem making big power
on my GT.
So what are gonna be some of your benefits when going with a TVS per se over different
blowers?
Well, in my opinion, guys, the biggest is going to be the instantaneous power delivery,
along with a massive [inaudible 00:04:10] torque curve.
Now the power delivery is very linear here and it is very predictable, making them a
great choice for any style of driving, road racing, drag racing, or whatever.
Now you have to compare that to a turbo for instance, or a centrifugal blower, which can
sometimes suffer from a little bit of lag.
Now another nice thing about going with a TVS style blower like this is the relatively
simple layout, making for a slightly easier install, at least in my opinion.
Now, with a turbo setup, guys, you have to alter the exhaust, you have to run oil lines,
intercooler piping, change the exhaust, and a host of other things.
Now that's not gonna be the case here with these TVS blowers.
This thing simply just gonna replace the intake manifold sitting on top of your engine, meaning
you won't have to change up the exhaust, run any crazy lines, or anything like that.
Now sure obvious statement here, there is some modification needed, and there are a
lotta steps to get this installed, but at the end of the day, it's far less than installing
or building a turbo kit.
But as I pointed out earlier, this is an all-inclusive or turnkey kit, for lack of a better word,
and while I don't have all of the parts with me here on the table, I can just kinda give
you a rundown of what you can expect when opening the box for the very first time.
Now, in addition to the TVS rotor pack and housing here, you are gonna be receiving the
lower unit which essentially is your air to water intercooler portion of the blower.
Now working to help keep that intercooler cool will be the included heat exchanger.
Just a heads up here, guys, this thing does not include any fans with the Roush Phase
3 kit, but that is something you can add if you're interested.
Roush also includes a twin 60-millimeter throttle body with their kit, which is fed by the rather
large 110-millimeter mass air flow tube, cold air intake, and corresponding air box.
Now I'll be completely honest with you, guys, the intake isn't going to be the biggest on
the market per se, but the design is completely on point, and leads to a nice smooth mass
air flow signal, which is something your tuner will definitely appreciate if you do decide
to go the custom tuning route as I did.
And speaking of tuning, this seems like a great time to mention your tuning options
with this kit because, again, you have some options here.
Now the kit does include the Roush calibration which is backed by that 3 year 36,000-mile
warranty we mentioned earlier on.
Now this calibration would need to be flashed by a Ford dealer using their specific tool,
along with the Roush RDT software.
Now, guys, I'll be completely honest with ya, the Roush calibration is going to be a
tad conservative, and some people might correctly argue that they do leave some power on the
table.
However, some people might value a conservative tune and a corresponding warranty a little
bit more than an extra 50 to 75 horsepower.
Now on the other hand, you can certainly check out the custom tuning route as I did.
But keep in mind, guys, that's only gonna add to the final price, as you will have to
pay for the tune itself, along with the necessary device.
On top of that, you will not be able to retain that Roush warranty.
So some things to think about here, guys.
And if you didn't wanna go the custom tuning route, you're gonna find a ton of different
options out there.
For instance, I went with VMP, and I've been completely happy with their services so far
and have no complaints whatsoever.
But again, that's totally up to you at the end of the day.
But getting back to the kit, guys.
Now, we've talked about the blower, we've talked about the intercooler, we've talked
tunes, now let's talk about the fuel.
The Phase 3 kit does include 47-pound injectors in addition to a couple of unique high flow
fuel rails, and a plug and play fuel pump booster, better known to you, guys, as a Boost-A-Pump,
which according to Roush, is enough to feed the blown Coyote using their calibration.
However, some tuners might try to recommend to you a larger set of injectors depending
on your power goals if you do go the custom tuning route.
But again, just an added cost to factor in if that's something you are considering.
Finally, Roush does include does include their 80-millimeter pully with the Phase 3 kit,
which depending on your mods, will land you right around 10 pounds of boost or so with
your particular setup.
Now the nice thing about the TVS blower is that changing pulleys literally takes a few
minutes and it doesn't require the use of any crazy tools.
Rounding out the kit, you're gonna find a number of different hoses, all of your wiring,
new spark plugs, brackets, reservoirs, heat exchangers, the list goes on and on, guys.
And, again, this is just a 100% turnkey kit.
That's the best way to sum this thing up.
And if I can just chime in with my own two cents as a Roush Phase 3 owner, this kit is
just really well thought out, well engineered, and that was apparent when the installation
was going down, but even more so after this thing was installed, as it looked right at
home under the hood, and almost resembled a factory installed car.
But switching gears, let's talk installation.
And as I pointed out earlier, guys, this is going to be a full three outta three wrenches
on the difficulty meter, and anywhere from at least a day to a full weekend in the shop
or garage to get knocked out, depending on your expertise.
And speaking of expertise, this isn't necessarily a job I'd recommend for my first-time wrenchers
out there as there are a lot of steps, and it can be a little in depth and tricky if
you don't wrench a lot.
So you might wanna take this one to your local speed shop instead.
On the other hand, if you do plan on getting down and dirty with the Roush install, here's
a few things to expect.
Now first, you wanna make sure you have a solid set of tools on hand before getting
started, along with the installation instructions, either printed out or pulled up ready to go
on your laptop.
Now your first steps will be general disassembly.
The front bumper cover will need to come off.
The intake manifold will need to come off as well.
Now once you kinda get through the disassembly, you'll need to modify the front engine cover.
And this process can be a little different depending on your year, but basically the
idea here is, guys, you're gonna need to grind off some material using a grinder or a cutoff
wheel in order to make room for the blower itself, along with the belt and all of the
accessories.
Once the cover has been modified, you can get to work installing the actual supercharger
and fuel rail setup.
With the blower installed, install the throttle body along with all of your vacuum lines,
and then move on to your electrical connections.
Now you'll need to move up to the front of the car in order to install the heat exchanger
and corresponding water lines.
Now the 11 to 12 bumpers require a little bit of trimming, while the 13 and 14 bumpers
need no modification whatsoever.
With the heat exchanger installed, and all of the lines plumbed, it's time to move on
to the belt assembly.
Now there are a few brackets and idler pulleys that will need to be installed first using
the included instructions, before the actual belt can go on.
Now Roush does include a routing diagram in the instructions to help you out with that
portion.
With the belt in place, it's time to finish up the rest of your electrical connections.
Gap the plugs, if needed, according to the instructions.
Fill up the cooling system along with the intercooler, being sure to prime the system
first before you actually start the car.
Reassemble the front end of the car, upload your tune, and fire everything up, checking
for any leaks.
Now granted, guys, this is a very basic and very general walkthrough of the job, but it's
just designed to give you a better idea of what you're gonna dealing with here.
Now if you want an even better idea about the installation, check out the instructions
on Roush's website before getting started to see if this install will be for you or
not.
Wrapping this one up, guys, as a proud owner of a Roush TVS kit, I can tell you that the
Phase 3 kit is gonna be an awesome way to totally transform your Mustang.
