Cmrc deletes ??? don't know what you mean The one pic is of the old intake

CPU back from roush today I was suprised it is here already since I had sent on Friday the 23 december with xmas in between. They have there sticker on it so it must have made it there.

Damn man, how long are you expecting it to take?

O duh...that is the old intake, I couldnt see the valves on those CMRC's (Charge motion runner controls). Does the new intake have any butterfly valves on those runners?

Well the last day of 05 and we started of by mounting the water tank for intercooler

Then we jacked up car took off front wheels to be able to remove front half of inner fenders and the front bumper. Actually remove the front of the car was probably the easiest thing we have done. This is to install the cooler for intercooler.

We now installed the cooler and I must say the way it was built was like it came right from ford themselves it was perfect fit. We removed the crush beam
(styrofoam lol)from the front . Removed the 2 inside bumper bolts. this is where the cooler mounts. We then installed the 2 supllied hoses to the engine compartment on paseenger side the other to the drivers side fender area. this is where the water pump for inter cooler goes. On the pump side we had to cut a few inches of hose off at a time to get the kinks out of the hose.

Next we installed the supplied cooler autolite spark plugs. the order They do things in the instructions seem to make things easier to do. Like the spark plugs we be a little tight with everything on to change.

we then reinstalled the cooler lines we haad to modify into water pump under intake. Remove tape and clean the surface area to insatl the intake


Attachment 28332


Attachment 28333

Now we are getting to the best stuff so far. The intake goes on !!!!!!!!!!!. You can see intercooler in mainfold hole where s/c will sit


Attachment 28328

Then we installed the new fuel injectors and fuel rails. Notice how the crosover tube goes over the s/c

Attachment 28327

NICE!! it's coming along really well.. when do you plan to finish?

We now had to mount the new alternator bracket. It is of high quality aluminum and it mounted on the 2 studs from the old location. It Looked like a factory piece high quality when installed. .We the installed a couple of idler pulleys and installed the new belt. Just one belt drives everthing. Belt was alost as tall as me. Definetly the page that shows where the belt goes is a must keeper in car in case you ever have to replace or remove belt. Even with the instructions it was a maze lol.

MY son Derek and I hope some of you enjoyed this build and if ever you needs a few questions about contact us and we will try to help ya all :cheers:
Anyone who is considering a roushcharger don't hesitate. The quality of the parts, instructions andhow it has the looks of a factory installed kit. The fact that it runs so good right out of the box you can't go wrong. It was a very easy install to do. lots of steps but not hard. I think anybody would enjoy doing this and to know how it all fits together.



Attachment 28287

So that's it????? dont u need to tune it???

He has the roush ECU which is the same way they come from the factory supercharged tune. it wouldnt be a bad idea to get it tuned, but his a/f and everything else should be completly safe from normal street driving, to WOT.

swesome man...now get got a tune :)

Nope roush flashed the cpu and I installed excactly the way they wanted. I even took off k&N filter and reinstalled the fact. airbox that we modified as per instructions. I can't see it running any better then what it is now.Roush definetly knew what they were doing with this kit. Probably why they make for only selected fords and all there effort and engineering is a lot better..

when u going to get it dynoed i wanna see some numbers

u really should put the k&n back on..its not gonna change anythign in the tune, but it will let more air in , the stock one is too restrictive...but i know your not gonna listen to me, your too damn stubborn lol

Actually with the bigger dirty air inlet and the highflow air filter they supplied i think is going to be ok. You with the K&N on I found that the temp of air being sucked in was just as hot as the engine . the factory air takes cooler air from insaide the fender well. The k&n did look cosmeticaly alot better but I don't think it was better. In the roush instructions they said a cai makes to much air turbulance for the maf to work properly. Hell in this install you move the maf sensor 10" away from airbox???? You wouldn't think that it would make much of difference but they did for a reason. And it runs poerfectly as it is now right out of the box!! no code lights etc.

tooltime, does the roush have an aftermartket exhaust system?

Yes I have roush exhaust. See the exhaust in pic
