I was told I would need a larger TB to yield the best power gains from my Roush Phase 2 (727 HP) supercharger that I dad a dealer install on my '16 mustang GT. It was part of thier promotion of buy a SC for a GT for 40K special. It's also apparent I'll need a much better tune, as well.

What do you guys recommend for the TB?

I never heard of needing a larger TB for the Roush kit. Although, Whipple is running a 132mm TB, and they are making killer power. But, it depends on tune as well.
Keep us posted.

The car is running about a second slower and 10 mph slower than it should in the 1/4 mile. Its' just not making the power. Even with Advance Trac off, the factory tune is pulling power. Very frustrating. It was the dealer who suggested the larger TB & tune and told me to contact Justin at VMP. I emailed him, but he never responded.

There is only option and it's the VMP 67mm TwinJet TB. It's perfect.
Oh, and get a tune from Ken@PalmBeachDyno
I best remote/dyno tunes ever

Thanks for the info. The car is in Wichita, KS. I had planned on taking it to the Wichita Dyno performance shop later in November (I'm on a contract at Gulfstream in Savannah). I'm sure he's aware of all the great tunes available. As I stated earlier, I can't get a hold of Justin. He must be too busy.

I can put you in touch with someone else that works there if that works for you?
Let me know through PM. He and I were actually chatting online earlier today.
