New F-150 6.2L Superchargers From ROUSH Performance
F-150′s and superchargers are nothing new to ROUSH Performance. ROUSH has been supercharging Ford F-150 5.4L-V8′s since the 2004 model year using ROUSH superchargers with Eaton M112 internals. What’s new are the 6.2L-V8 Ford F-150 engine and ROUSH’s new R2300 supercharger with Eaton TVS internals designed for the 6.2L Raptor, Harley Davidson, Platinum and Lariat F-150 models.
Both the M112 and R2300 are roots-type positive displacement superchargers featuring twin rotors. The difference is Eaton’s original M112 rotating assembly was designed using three lobes per rotor that were each twisted 60-degrees. The new TVS rotating assembly features twin four lobe rotors with 160-degree twist. The fourth lobe and higher helix angle, combined with newly redesigned air inlet and outlet ports improves air-handling characteristics, greatly enhances thermal efficiency, delivers higher volumetric capacity and enables higher operating speeds. These improvements allow for the use of a smaller supercharger, reducing the package size and weight. And unlike turbo-chargers or centrifugal superchargers, positive displacement superchargers provide instantaneous boost response and can generate increased power through the engine’s entire powerband.
ROUSH Performance now has two TVS supercharger offerings available, with a third on the way, for the 6.2L Ford F-150 trucks. The first is a non-calibrated supercharger kit designed for Tuner shops to add their own PCM calibration and fuel injector size. The second kit is a complete kit including ROUSH PCM calibration. Both kits include a ROUSH R2300 TVS supercharger (Tuner kit with 75 mm pulley and Calibrated kit with 80 mm pulley) mounted atop ROUSH’s uniquely designed upper and lower intake manifolds. Providing a cold air charge is a high-capacity, high-efficiency air-to-water intercooler along with a dual-core low temp radiator and large intercooler degas bottle. These kits also include ROUSH’s new F-150 cold air induction system featuring an open element air box, washable high-flow air filter, 100 mm MAF tube, unique clean air tube, twin 60mm throttle body and throttle body spacer. The ROUSH calibrated kit includes 47-lb injectors and a ROUSH engineered PCM calibration.
