Just ordered my whipple HO kit

[b00stedgt]

I finally decided to just go ahead an order the whipple HO kit. I plan on taking my time and making it a winter project. I will take alot of pics and post them up as I go. I plan on relocating the IAT sensor and lowering the boost to around 8psi.

He's probably waiting for Hell to cool down a bit this winter.

ah so jealous.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost and where'd you buy it from? (feel free to PM me if you'd rather not post publicly)

thanks!

Haha, pretty much. To make that project last a winter, you'd need to fasten no more than one bolt per day.

First thing I would do is swap the spark plugs. Why? If you get any breakage, you're going to want to deal with that first.

Second, do the fuel pump. Start and drive the car to check that everything is fine.

Good advice. Thank you. I wouldnt expect it to take more than 20 hours but being that I get bored and look for reasons to work in the garage, I figured I will take it slow and do a little at a time. Maybe it will keep me from spending more money

Doubt that!

Next is the tires, clutch, followed by the tires again, suspension upgrades, maybe a new TB, did I mention the tires.. LMAO!

What size pulley are you running? I ordered a 3.65" pulley along with the 3.25 that it comes with

There's really not much to it. I'd make sure you have the right tools though. I just got done doing mine a month or so ago, and can tell you the exact drill bit and die to use if you need it.

 

[b00stedgt]

If you could tell me the size that would be helpful. Thanks!
