I was wanting to know exactly what year they came in for that model, and what is on them?

Well, this is what I've found out about Roush since I bought mine 3 months ago.

First of all, I know they offered the 6cyl every year from 99-04 but it was mainly an appearence option (ground effects and exhaust). There were optional upgrades that included suspension, brakes, and I believe a cold air intake was one too.

Now here is where I get confused. My Roush is numbered (#1047) in the door and on the dash yet there are no records of how many were made!!! I even called Roush and they told me they didn't start keeping track untill 2002??? I'm still not sure how you can number a car then not know how many you made!! WTF!!! Further more, they are discontinuing most replacement parts for ALL 99-04's!! I heard that they are doing this because they want originals to become rare and more valuable. That sucks for the people that drive them though! If you can get Roush OEM parts they cost a fortune!!! I just replaced my brake rotors and the Roush rotors were $400 each!!! I bought the Powerslot rotors for $100 each! The Roush rotors are probably a little better but not 4 times better!! I also found that the Roush guys usually think they are better than everyone else and I hate that.

All that being said, I love my ROUSH!!! I have the stage 2 (8cyl) with suspension, brakes, and CAI. The stage 1 was a body kit and exhaust. The stage 3 was all of the above plus a supercharger (unavailable on the 6cyl). I personally think it is the best looking stang in those years. I was at Limerock Raceway over the weekend and there must have been a 1,000 stangs there. There was only 2 Roush, mine and a brand new one on display. When I went to leave there was a bunch of people standing around my car pointing at the exhaust. Also, my Roush stops and handles better than any other stang that I've owned (I've had 12).

If you want a stang that sits apart from others than go for it!

Let me know if that helps. Good luck!

I already have a 6 cylinder, however i wasn't really looking into buying a gt because i love mine, but i wanted more sound, so i figured being roush may make it louder? But you're saying any of the 99-04 model mustang can be a v6 Roush? I had heard just 04's but i wasn't sure. I wanted a stage 1 or 2 V6 with a turbo engine, is that possible or are they not made? I figured you'd have to add the v6 turbo after buying the car correct?

Does yours have the side exhaust? What year is yours?

I'm saying that there is no record of how many 6's and 8's went out untill 2002. Ford just ships them a bunch cars to modify then Ford marks them up. More than likely, they get like 1,000 cars all built consecutively. Let's say Ford puts out 25,000 Mustangs in one year. Numbers 2000-3000 will go to Roush for different stages of mods. A certain amount of those will be 6cyl, some are 8cyl.

Here is the other thing, is yours an original Roush? If so it will have a number in your passenger side door jam. Anyone can build their own Roush and there are lots of those around. Everything they put on their cars can be bought and installed on any Mustang (not much longer on 99-04).

Roush does not make a turbo that I know of. You can absolutely put an aftermarket turbo on yours and it will make a big difference!!

Send me a pic!

Right now i have a 2001, and i wanted to buy a roush in that same body style, but i wasn't sure if they made v6 roush for the years 99-03. I knew 04 had a few v6 Roush mustangs made.
