Torn between the Roush and Whipple on my 5.0

I had to pick between the Roush Phase 2 and the Whipple Stage 2 for my 2019 F150. Went with the Roush because I found a local shop in Phoenix that could install it for $1,200 less. Been running it for about 4 months now and honestly the torque curve feels smoother than I expected. But I keep seeing guys at meets pull hard with Whipples and wonder if I left power on the table. Anyone else make this call and regret it or feel good about it?

Did you dyno yours after the install? I've heard the Roush tunes are a little more conservative from the factory so you might be leaving a little on the table with just the canned calibration.

Dyno'd mine about two weeks after the install. Was pulling 460 to the wheels with the canned Roush tune. Swapped to a local shop's custom tune and picked up 17 more horsepower and a smoother power curve through the midrange. The drivability improvement was worth it alone.
