That’s an incredible 305 ponies and 225 pounds of boost compared to stock.
2021 F-150 Roush Supercharger Kit: Specs
To assist with obtaining these massive numbers, 93-octane pump gas plays a significant part. To improve the durability of the supercharged 5.0L V8 engine, the team of Roush engineers developed an optimized billet aluminum viscous crankshaft damper which was determined to be necessary after rigorous testing. The unique damper reduces the increased torsional inputs needed to handle the increased power level. Additionally, the 2021 F-150 Roush Supercharger Kit comes with uniquely designed spark plugs optimized for the forced induction combustion process. They also reduce the pre-ignition / detonation risks that come with the added power from the supercharger.
Roush also made sure the engine would stay cool with a core that is twice the size of the outgoing Roush low-temp radiator. The new cooler boasts a substantial 107-percent bump in overall surface area for maximum cooling capacity. During development, the Roush supercharger kit has completed hot development trips to validate cooling performance, AC performance, and towing capability. The team utilized a cold chamber at -20 degrees Fahrenheit to check cold start reliability. In addition, The 2021 F-150 Supercharger system underwent over 900 hours of dyno engine durability and testing.
The Roush R2650 TCS supercharger is a roots-type positive displacement supercharger that features twin four-lobe rotors twisted 170-degrees. In addition, the kit includes a 3-year / 36,000-mile Limited Powertrain Warranty which is included when the kit is installed by a Ford dealer or an Automotive Service Excellence-certified technician. This means that for just $8,749.99 and a trip to a local Ford dealer, you could considerably boost your 2021 F-150’s power output to levels worthy of taming a T-Rex.
