Roush’s F-150 Supercharger Was Engineered With Extreme Situations In Mind
To optimize performance when towing, off-roading, and other higher-stress conditions, the low-temp radiator surface area on the 2024 F-150 Supercharger Kit was enlarged in comparison to the previous low-temp radiators. This engineering design doubled its cooling capacity. With immediate throttle response, the supercharger offers instant power to the engine. Twin four-lobe rotors with a 170-degree twist enhance the positive-displacement supercharger’s thermal efficiency and airflow. Providing a smooth and efficient experience for the driver, the kit maintains all OEM driving modes.

Although the modification is assessed as a 20-hour job that can be completed by more advanced DIY’ers, installation by a certified ASE tech or Ford dealership will qualify the kit for a three-year/ 36,000 mile, limited powertrain warranty. California compliance must be checked.
