Today we are showing you how to install Roush's Phase 1 Supercharger kit on our S550 GT. One of the biggest requests to date has been how to install a supercharger on a Mustang, since the day Bill got his new 2015 he has been talking about putting one on, and has chosen the ROUSH charger system to boost his GT up to around 627 horsepower.
Installation is a little complicated and very time-consuming. Watch as we take you step by step how to install the Roush Supercharger on your 2015, 2016 or 2017 5.0L Mustang.

This should be in the video description!

[@QuesoTornado]

I helped a buddy with his supercharger install on his 2015 GT, he is a very organized person so he had plastic containers labeled where each set of screws came from... He ran out so he had to throw out some of his leftovers in the fridge 😂😂😂

[@MrFatty239]

I just installed the Roush phase 2 and Bill made this possible and gave me the confidence to do it. It took me 15 hours. If I can help anyone, let me know. Thanks Bill for the videos.

[@demolaj1]

+Chris F do you love it ?

[@MrFatty239]

I love everything except the roush tune. It pretty much sucks. If you get on it, it sets off the max torque limiter and puts the car in limp mode so its barley drivable until you shut it down a restart it. So you have to get a different tune. I barley went 60 mph and less than 5000 rpm when this happened.

[@Zerogivengarage]

Is your car a manual? sounds like the clutch protection mode might be kicking in although that should go off once you shift gears. The early tune had an issue with limp mode but that was when the kit was new and was fixed quickly by Roush.

[@MrFatty239]

It is a manual. Doesn't go off when switching gears. its giving me code P061B. got my tune in march...is that the early tune? Another problem is I cant get a hold of Roush, by phone, email, live chat, to ask them! Any help Bill is appreciated!

[@Zerogivengarage]

Did you get the kit from us? email me either way and I can help. bill at cjponyparts dot com

[@PardenBoyz]

The most detailed video installation ever. Great job

[@filippebarros]

I don't even own a mustang myself, but this video is so good and so satisfying to watch that I actually sat through the entire duration of the video! Thanks +CJ Pony Parts for providing a video with such good quality, clarity, various camera angles and a chill yet badass background music hahaha. Your Mustang is sick and congratulations on the new acquirement. Hopefully soon enough I'll have the money to buy my own stang, hopefully my so dreamed 2013 Boss 302 and I'll begin installing my own mods ( not that many though).

[@bernercalito8422]

Filippe Barros not in a bad way the music is like those porn background music. The video is very well explained. Thanks Cj Pony

[@mikesmith4337]

Same here, and now I want one! Nice job on the filming.

[@Knards]

I would sure feel better with Bill installing my Supercharger than letting my local dealership do it

[@spaceemperorkarl121]

The only time a dealership saw my car was when I drove off the lot with it.

[@sbiegs3885]

Local won't install it anyway.

[@doriansimmons6913]

I ask Bill, if they do work for the public he said no. I wish he did. Not to many you can trust to do this type of job.

[@brettfrimmer6567]

It’s a bolt on supercharger it’s not rocket science. Nearly every ford dealer in the country has in most cases multiple technicians qualified to do this job. The ford dealer I work at has 3. One guy has done 30 of them now.

[@OscarMartinez-gn8sv]

I have a mustang gt with a roush phase 1. This video makes me appreciate the engine a whole lot more knowing it takes a lot of hard work and proper installation.

[@Zerogivengarage]

Thank you very much!

[@jastanger]

Bill Tumas I agree. They are the most thorough and practical I've seen, done by someone who is clearly an experienced and talented tech, as opposed to some goofball Hollywood type (AmercianMuscle). My only critique, (most people won't care, but sound for film is something I studied) is the music always playing in the background. It's a bit distracting and can be tiresome. Great job, though! I still don't know if I'll try this job myself on my new GT, though!! I'm worried I'll hurt her, and I really just think a pro will do a better, cleaner job.

[@Zerogivengarage]

jastanger Thank You for the compliment. The sound is something my videographer/editor is regularly conflicted about. We have done a few videos without the sound and we both feel they seem longer without it.

[@jastanger]

Yea. I can see that it's not an easy decision, as I don't know what I would do, either. In any case, thanks for the great videos.

[@enzozenuni]

Bill, I used to have a Dodge Challenger, after watching your videos and thoughts on the mustang is what made me switch and trade my challenger in for a 2016 GT PP. So far I've redone the entire suspension system. Just debating to either go all motor or go with a blower! Thanks again for all your great video content and information! I look forward to more content!!

[@christianscott283]

GREAT video Bill! I referenced this several times during this past week install of the Roush phase 2 supercharger on my 2017 GT PP. Thanks!

[@RobertKohut]

Since this is a repost I guess I'll repost my comment from the original, the best I can remember. Firstly glad to see you caught the blower belt on the wrong side of the upper idler pulley....LOL. Also it must be major surgery to replace the blower belt when required since it looks like the bracket would need to be removed. Secondly I don't like the Roush requirement for the ECU to be sent to them for re-flash. The first reason is the stock tune is now unavailable to the end user which may cause some complications for returning the car to stock or purchasing a handheld tuner. I'm not sure, but I think a handheld needs to "marry" with the car using the stock Ford strategy. Second reason is if the end user wants to change gear ratios or tire sizes not having a handheld for user adjustable configurations makes the changes not very practical in the sense of speedometer calibration etc. The Ford Racing Whipple kit and others I believe provide for a handheld for the re-flash providing the end user the optimum in customization options for future upgrades. A great kit though and seems like a weekend with pizza and beer would be a reasonable estimate for installation. Also not sure, but it seems like Roush is still tuning "rich", for safety, since it appears a lot of black smoke is coming out the tail pipes. Thanks for the great video install and your '15 Mustang is making my '13 look bad...LOL...LOL

[@efthimios]

Awesome video.. if you had a shop here in PA I would definitely own a 2015 GT and all my money would go to you for mods.

[@djstringsmusic2994]

I love how you effectively have to mess up the stability of the car and handling just for more horse power. I'd take those braces and a better handling car, than fast in a straight line. Great video though!

[@MikeGossett]

This is exactly my thought and why I haven't added a supercharger to my 17. I'd rather have the stability and rigidity of full K members and the cross brace.

[@jaspersdeblin4158]

My confidence level was 100, and then I saw grinding on the engine.... started making phone calls.

[@ronbrown4473]

Great install video, I really enjoyed it! I also look forward to your complete review after you driven it for a few hundred miles!

[@ctozzi123]

dam I was thinking of doing this but there are like a 1000 steps I'll just wait for the gt500

[@arizonacolour8793]

lmfao when you have money...

[@spaceemperorkarl121]

Perusing Person I think you're confusing the Mustang GT with the Ford GT....two VERY different vehicles. Mustang GT is 5.0L v8 where as the GT is a mid-engine turbo v6 sports car. It's like confusing a Porsche 718 Cayman with a GT2 RS

[@nickmacias00]

Perusing Person that isn’t true the dealers were just telling him bs cuz they just thought he was a dumb kid wanting a gt500 he literally just ordered two GT500s you really think he spend 1.2 million?😂🤦🏻‍♂️

Hello my ford friend how about the guys out here that have trucks that they are building with five liter’s coyotes, I’ve been building on my 150 for two years now and plan to put a Roush supper charger but decided to also refresh the motor with rods and bearings . I will be looking for the next episode on install for a f150, this is very educational thank you CJ pony for the lesson. Sincerely ,Scott

[@TheFlyperry]

fantastic install nothing left to wonder about except i did not hear u mention to install the coil covers, but thats what the instructions are for but for a guideline on what to do Ford needss to ship u r video with each of these install kits it is that concise i have a gt500 but i still enjoyed the video

[@Zerogivengarage]

+perry lewis Thanks for the compliment. We do leave some very basic stuff out occasionally to keep the length of the videos down.

[@patrickcutright347]

Just to warn you guys the way he originally mounted the S/C belt is wrong it was something he corrected and failed to mention in the video, for those of you wondering why your belt is either not fitting or rubbing on the lower part of the head

[@Sly_Wolf_1]

Whilst you're videos are all superb I am always amazed at how clean your vehicles are underneath and in the engine bay, how the hell do you keep a daily that clean?

[@Hexecutable]

This is a very well put together video. Nice job guys.

[@xicelinkx]

Awesome video Hauss. I'll be looking at a mustang tomorrow. I was wondering something though. Do you need to upgrade internals for this supercharger or is it safe for the engine as is? Will it cause premature wear and tear just driving it normally? Does anything else need to be upgraded or is it just this kit and done? What a great mod. Instant beast. Props on your skills. Love the exhaust videos too. Keep up the good work.

[@victoroliveira3256]

Wait I'm sure I've seen this already, I'm checking the video library and I can't find the original post, this isn't cause of the minor mistake you made by installing the belt over the driveline pulley is it.....haha I noticed anyway I said it before and I'll say it again "man I love being a turtle"......

Hey Bill. Just got done about 2 hours ago with my install. Thanks so much for the video. Say what you want but... That was a huge pain in the ass!! Who designed those hose clamps? This video was really helpful to use along with the instructions. I just hope everything works!

[@Zerogivengarage]

Congrats on the install!! Yes I agree on some of the clamps and fitment but nothing we haven't seen before lol

[@Zerogivengarage]

+messer23421 I filled it with green universal antifreeze, once it got up to temperature the original pink left in the engine started circulating. That is why the color changed, no trickery there.

Oh, gotcha. Thanks for the info. I always was told it was bad to mix the antifreeze like that. I also know for a while that the orange stuff really did a number on engines. Is that not the case anymore?

[@messer23421]

Another question when you have the time, how much power can the stock coyote engine hold without having to forge the pistons and rods? I saw a video of some guys that put a whipple supercharger which they claim gave them over 750 hp at the wheels, but I would think that would destroy a stock motor?

#YDBT Representing Bill !!!! Love your videos man !!!

[@LuigiChincochento]

Great video providing a much needed visual for this install!!! A couple of iffy parts, but I'm sure someone with half a brain can figure them out. My concern on this Roush install is cutting that 'K' Brace. There is a reason for that 'K' Brace and I'm not only looking for straight line speed and acceleration, but also front suspension stability while executing a slalom/road course. Not to mention, it looks so ghetto when you re-install that 'K' Brace even though it has been painted. Really, the only unprofessional mod of this whole install! Questions: 1. Is there another option such as a modified 'K' Brace? Does Whipple require this modification to the 'K' Brace as well? 2. Will Roush come out with a tune for an automatic GT? Seems kind of strange that they don't have one yet.

[@Zerogivengarage]

Luigi Chincochento The K brace just adds additional support, several models do not even come with it. These modern chassis are so strong they really don't need it, I saw zero drivability changes without it. I went with a Steeda G force lower brace to tie things together up front. Whippled keeps the K brace but also gets rid of the strut tower brace. Roush said the tune is coming soon.

is it a very hard install? or just takes time and patience? Good instructions on how to grind the timing cover?

Bill! Nice work! Question, I'm looking to get a 2017 gt and would like to get this supercharger. My question is, can the stock internals support this hp? Do I need any supporting mods? I'm coming from a 2011 sti and these engines easily blow ring lands. What's the most hp the coyote can handle before you have to start rebuilding? Thanks. This gt will be my dd and I'd like to add a decent amount of Hp while maintaining reliability.

[@Zerogivengarage]

The stock 15+ motors can handle this with no problems, I have over 20,000 miles on my supercharger now with no issues.
