Well the kit is great what can I say we made a few changes (very minor) mainly we used the stock coolant lines instead of the tube Whipple provided, basically changed a few brackets. Just from stuff we learned with V's truck. The install took a solid 8 hrs and thats including making some special brackets. The truck we installed it on was a truck that has been in our shop before. It has a 1 year old built JDM motor. 4lb lower pulley, stock exhaust, silverbullet catback, stock fuel pumps, 60#s and SCT mass air. This truck made 449 the last time it was here. Just bolting on the Whipple at 15.5 psi and a set of injectors and Maf we made 575HP I told the customer to expect maybe 500-525 with out pumps but sure enough it made way more. Well the pumps are at max duty cycle but apperantley not enough to affect the AF its pretty darn flat. Just thought inquiring minds would like to see what we found.

very nice
are you guys now a whipple dealer??? sorry must have missed it if you already said

 

Real impressive!
Premium unleaded or race fuel?

 

since this motor is a year old, would it benefit from the new head design and valve springs/cam combo that you are running in the "newer" engines?

If so, how?

Looking at the graph it looks like it starts to drop off at 5500, but i'm not sure if it is due to valves/head/air flow restriction, or you were simply letting off the gas pedal.

 

That upper pulley is HUGE

Some great numbers for sure. Is that one of the new Whipple's or the original type like Vinnie had the use of?

 

beleive that is one of whipples that comes with the blower.

SIGN ME UP

 

Nice! What's the timing at Jim?

 

stock fuel pumps?

 

Thats some real I-Candy...Reminds me of Karina!

 

Hey J3,

Looking good!!

But like my wife says, "If only it was bigger...."

 

Looks great and nice numbers for only 15+lbs!

Why did you use the stock coolant lines and changed a few brackets?

Do you ever see installing these in 4 hours? Eight seems a long time.

 

holy s batman! I am officially impressed. Thats one hell of a bolt on.Now lets get that beast to the track

 

Damn, and i was gonna run the 8lb. lower and the 2.75 upper!!! Holy cow!! Those are some very very strong #'s

Looks good Jim. Thanks again for the shorty. I saw it the other day and even though it was still in the bag, it looked great. My build will be done on Feb. 15th and I will let you know how much power we get out of your motor....

 

15 psi
