Default New RR 2014 - Mods?

Just got a new 2014 RR 5.0, thinking about these wheels and power-adders:







The Roush Graphite wheels?


Roush Phase 1 Supercharger
2011-2014 Ford Mustang Supercharger - Phase 1 575 HP Calibrated


Is there a better supercharger for a daily driver that will rarely see the drag strip?

Nothing wrong with a TVS unless you want to make mad horsepower down the road.

Roush is currently having a sale, pick up a phase 1-3 calibrated kit and get a free roush axle-back.

Those wheels aren't too bad but I'm sure they're pretty heavy.

Let us know if you have any questions on the TVS kit.

Dave, hows the car running?

Got a linky on that deal, and if through what, what is the availability?

Was VERY nice having it back and driving it around. Just been cruising it trying to break everything in. Dropped it back off yesterday to get wrap it up. It'll be sipping E85 when I pick it up and pushing a decent amount of boost.

You put twins on that boss yet???

Roush and a few of its dealers including us are offering this deal, but we're still offering a forum discount with this deal. Shoot me a pm for the details.

I would definitely recommend a Roush blower for a daily driven car. The few I've driven are fun, quiet and still make tons of power.

I don't think we've seen any issues with them either in regards to the belts or any other reliability issues. I'd say it's a good pick for sure.

The Roush wheels are a good pick, I'd either go with those or a set of Vossens.
