Roush Offroad Noticeable Power

Hey, Thought I'd take a poll. How many of you Roush Offroad (or legal)

owners felt a difference when you put the system on?

I for one, was totally convinced that it wouldn't make any difference

whatsoever because it's only a catback system. However, I have noticed a

difference anyway.

Do these systems make more power or am I driving with my ears?

I have the Off Road version on my Screw and have not noticed any noticeable power gains. Although it definitely sounds better!!

roush off road

I installed mine about 3 weeks ago..Now as far as seat of the pants horsepower .The only diff. i can tell is on the top end..I would say around 3000 rpms..Really seems to me that my truck really takes off alot better like running 50 and getting on it hard .like it gets to 80 a lot faster than before..... Dang sure does sound alot better if it is just my ears..

Purdy aint it?


At first, I thought I had lost power.


But then I realized I was not putting my foot in it as much because I could hear it so well.


It has made a slight difference in acceleration from a dead stop, and at passing speed.

Either way, it does not matter. All that matters is that everyone comments on how awesome my truck sounds now.
