Whipple Blower
 
What kind of REAL numbers can you expect with a whipple blower? And how reliable would they be if you put one on a daily driver?

it's the same blower that comes on Mercedes...

are you saying it is good or bad beacause it is on the Benz.
Benz is a high priced POS. Check consumer reports and they cost a arm, leg, and 1st child to fix. Because it is used on the Benz does not make it the end all be all.

WELCOME :wave:
The Whipple will prove to be an awesome SC "if" it's ever made,
unfortunately like it's brother before (The Works SC) only a handful exsist
and the reality is they prob will never be made :mad: (Like the Works were never) You can count on one hand how many L brothers in this world have a Works or Whipple on their Beast, but you can rest assure, THEY ARE VERY LUCKY, THE SC KICKS ASS!!

Here's the World Famous "1" Whipple out there right now (that we can document and get stats on installed on a Lightning)

My buddy V's Beast

A lack of compressors led to a lawsuit and now it's tied up in court.

I "heard" that Ford Racing has a few they they are testing...

A heard a rumor that Whipple was going to have KB build the compressors. read that on here a few months ago, I think it was jlp that posted it, I could be completely wrong and if so I appologize.

If you write Whipple and or talk to Shonda, she will tell you it's still coming,
so I guess thats as good news as the community has at this point...

Two weeks more I belive she said, :lol:
For once I hope they change that to 3
OR SOMETHING :devil:

Beat me to it man! Mercedees = POS! If you believe otherwise its because you got duped into paying your hard earned money for one, believing all the hype about foriegn engineering!
