OK, i have seen and heard of Whipples new midplate.. supposedly Whipples original midplate would warp and im guessing causing damage to the blower internally.. does anyone know if this is true?? if so, is Whipple doing anything to correct the problem with the midplates already sold previous to this discovery of a flaw in Whipples design?? Maybe JJ, PSP, JDM, Lethal Performance, or anyone else dealing with Whipple can chime in...

 

We havent seen any issues with the older style midplate. We also suggest using the snout brace.

Where does one find the snout brace and how much? Do you guys sell them separately J3?

 

Me also...

 

I phoned Whipple as I did not get a brace in my kit and the person who answered the phone took my info and said they would send one out to me. He did not advise there was a cost to this but I know I will likely have to pay something. I have not installed the Whipple yet so I can't say much about the brace or the overall install.

 

does anyone have a pic of this brace????

i run my whipple up to 21 lbs of boost,,,,but i only do it 20 or 30 times a week

 

There is No difference between the earlier midplates and the current ones. the only difference is some of the older ones (like mine) were billet.

What they are doing is giving a front support to anyone who wants one. All you have to do is call them up and tell them you want one and they will mail you one.

Technically ther is no case flex. the problem is the newer casting were not fully deburred near the discharge port and plus the teflon coating scratches extremely easy. Whipple is now deburring all edges left after maching and going to a thicker higher grade teflon coating

I like that.

At 20 to 30 times a week that works out around 3 - 5 times a day.......
Blowing away the competition.


Think this will make a good addition to my JDM built motor

 

i dont get to drive it every day,,but i do drive it 3 or 4 times a week

i live out in the boone docks of the southern california desert,,,,,,we have alot of open roads

 

Where abouts in the boondocks? Im up here in barstow and I figured I was in BFE!

No ***** I used to live in AV, we are gonna have to hook up sometime and have a BS.

 

i called Whipple today and one of there Reps, Chris, was very helpful and told me there were no recalls or anything to worry about.. he told me the only thing i should have is the snout brace and he will be shipping it out to me today.. so i hope to see it in a couiple of days or maybe 2 weeks.. LOL (hope not)
