Roush Performance


Roush Performance is an American automotive company primarily involved in the engineering, development and manufacturing of high performance components for street and competitive racing applications. The company's namesake is automotive mogul Jack Roush, who owns and operates the firm. Founded in 1995 by Roush it provides automotive engineering from racing to street cars.

Aftermarket parts

Roush produces aftermarket performance parts for Ford cars and trucks, mainly the Ford Mustang, Ford Focus, and the Ford F-150 light duty pickup. These special model vehicles are sold to the public through select Ford dealerships. In addition to the high performance business, Roush supplies propane conversions kit for the F-150, as well as for school buses.
Roush is listed as a vehicle "Manufacturer of Record," in that the company modifies Ford F-150, Ford Focus and Ford Mustangs to the extent that they are considered "Roush" vehicles, and some carry Roush factory warranties.

Roush factory-modified vehicles

Modifications to Ford vehicles completed at their Livonia, Michigan factory include upgrades such as suspension, body, interior and engine, depending on the model of Roush vehicle and the options ordered. Perhaps best known of these Roush-modified vehicles is the Ford Mustang, which in 2016 is available in the "RS", "Stage 1", "Stage 2", and "Stage 3". The addition of the supercharger to the Ford-supplied 5.0 liter engine on the Stage 3 version results in a horsepower output of 670. All Roush factory cars are 50 state street legal.
All packages are available in both coupe and convertible models, in either manual or automatic transmission.
Roush has been modifying factory-born Ford Mustangs since 1995 on a limited-run basis, and made several numbered, limited-edition models:
All models are serialized with a unique plaque and other documentation, and are registered with Roush Performance in order to avoid cloning.
The company also provides custom built engines for cars like the Superformance Shelby Daytona Coupe, or Brock Coupe as it is also known.
The company has served occasionally as a part-time sponsor for Roush's Xfinity Series teams.
