Roush 435 HP pulley change?

[cagefightmma]

So basically, if you own an M90, the most you could get out of it would be to add the following: 2.57" pulley, 90mm Idler pulley, LT's, X-pipe, CAI, 10% OD crank pulley, and retune? I am days away from buying one myself but I am debating if I should wait to get something different. My motor is completely stock except for 4.10's, TCI 3000 Stall, Torque Convertor, and SLP Loudmouths which will soon be Cervini's side exhaust.

Thats why I haven't purchased one yet. I'm thinking of getting the Roush phase 1 for only a few hundred more after all that added on stuff.

Plus, theres LOTS of grow room w/ the Phase 1

Is the Phase 1 an TVS Blower?

Dude you are saying that an M90 with the upgrade and LTs, etc.. is only a couple hundred dollars off of a Phase 1 TVS?? No you are wrong, add up the $5800 Phase one, getting it dyno tuned, that is a couple thousand more than the M90 setup. How do I know, because I bought the M90 and 500HP upgrade kit, for over $2000 less then the Phase 1 TVS and what it would be to have it dyno tuned, and that is with me installing it. Bottom line, the M90 and the 500HP upgrade kit is by far an awesome choice for anyone looking to get a great blower kit for a good deal and have excellent performance!!! Anyone thinking about it, GO FOR IT!!! YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!!

How much did you just spend, and let me know your HP/TQ rating? Add in the LT's. I'll be waiting for your response.

m90 is a good V6 blower. its what the factory used on V6's.


get a man's blower at least an m112. all the blower speed on the world wont make it perform. it become a gigantic heat pump.

 

[Redfireshaker06]

Even my tuner says I will not be happy. Get a TVS

Ok...for anyone wanting to keep thier motor STOCK...this is a good choice.

I know personally...if all I had to do as change a pulley to get MORE boost...I'd be changing pulleys and scattering the motor....lol.

I've had mine for over 3 years, paid 6997 installed and still and very happy with it. Not the most powerful blower, but probably the most reliable. $3100 is a steal!

I have not been to the dyno yet but with Justin @ VMP Tuning and Jim at JDM seeing these blowers with my same mods making around 445 rwhp @ 424 lbs, I have no reason to believe that mine would be any different from those results. And for me who is not a track person and just wanted to get a steal of a blower and stay stock bottom end, it was the right choice. I am very happy with it. And yes adding up the M90 kit, the upgrade and full exhaust, I saved over $2000 what it would be for the phase 1, tuning, and full exhaust. Do what you feel is right for you and where you want to be at, and how much money you want to spend.

Ive got the m90, 2.57 pulley, 10% overdrive crank pulley, bap, and BBR stage 1 billet cams. everything else is stock. The car made 460rwhp, and 455rwtq. before the cams it made 432rwhp and 435rwtq. Im very happy with this setup although i need an upgraded heat exchanger.

saw the chrome m90 deal.. I just hate chrome in the engine bay.. wish i could find the normal one..

OP, do your research before you buy anything. If you want to keep your motor internals stock and not worry this is a great blower. Having a low 12 second/high 11's car on stock internals is still quite fast. I can't wait to install mine.

 

[Mustang30212]

Going to the dyno in the morning. I installed the 10% overdrive pulley. I was making 7lbs of boost and 410hp at the tires. My tuner isn't so sure I'll pick up any top end hp...but definately pick up some low end hp and torque.

I'll post results tomorrow.

I don't understand why everybody knocks this blower. an extra $500 (pulley + tune) on top of the $3,100-3,500 for the M90 and you are looking at an easy 400 RWHP...if not closer to 420 RWHP.

for under $4,000. then add the normal bolt-ons + some cams and you can easily get 450 RWHP without really trying. that beats the price of the Roush TVS or Whipple or KB by an easy $1,000...if not even $2,000


sure it ain't a Whipple or TVS...blah blah blah. Price vs. gains do all the talking for me. Some people are just Name whores.



@ Mustang30212...can't wait to see your results with the U/D pulley. We need more people out there to get these silly naysayers to STFU. 400+ RWHP is nothing to sneeze at. especially for such a low price

 

[Mustang30212]

Not to mention...on the street I've seen many a 400hp car OWN a 500-600 hp car. Tire spin is a biotch to catch in a FI car...lol.

Just installed the 90mm idler pulley and a Roush tensioner....slippage won't be an issue.

Yeah can't wait to see your dyno results. People love to knock this blower!! I am fully satisfied and I love it!!

Amen. The 6 cylinder blower comment blew me away. Idiot!
