Whipple time!

[bigpappy33]

very nice. About how long did it take you to do the install?

about 15 hours with two people working.

+1... don't get the 555R. In addition to the M/Ts, M&Hs would be a great choice, too. That's what I have been running for years now. A couple others that might be worth a try on the street are the new Goodyears and Nitto NT05R.

Well nitto is the only one that makes a drag radial in a 20" size, thats what the 555Rs would be for. I was also thinking about the new NT05s (not DRs) for street use to get a little more life out of my tires. On my 15 inch wheels for the track i would go with the Mickey Thompsons for sure, i think a 275/60/15 would be best to go with my 4.10s right?

Sigh this car eats money, My stock clutch is going to last maybe 2 months too... I just want to drive it now dangit!!!

3.125" - have fun while it lasts. That's like a 13 psi pulley.

I made 9.9 psi (peak) on a 3.625.

Justin said he could de-tune it, but i think im going to have lethal 1-day the 3.375 up to his shop for my Tuesday dyno day. 140 bucks vs new motor

Dude, if you want I'm selling a brand new 3.250 pulley for these Whipples. 100 bucks Is all I want for it.

What psi is that? about 11-12? I don't even see the 3.250 on lethal's website. The other thing is lethal is like 3 hours away from me so they can get it there by Tuesday (dyno appt)

 

[StangPower05]

Yea 11-12psi.. That's what overnight shipping is for lol.

 

[bigpappy33]

Thanks, but i am just going to go with the 3.375" 10-11 psi. Ordered it this morning, I'll let you guys know how tomorrows dyno session goes and hopefully will have some pics/vids.

 

[bigpappy33]

New pics of engine/car/ new valve covers (thanks Bruce!) and a video of the first start up

Nice!

Let it sit for alil. What I did was break loose each plug, put more fluids in, let it sit for about 5-10min, then turned each plug about qtr of a turn until it got tight. Put more fluids in, wait, and repeat. They'll screech and sound horrible.

well, it makes sense to somebody. It shows the capacity of Shower to work with others and how well he fits in to our little group.

 

[bigpappy33]

new pulley didn't come in, so Justin just dynoed me with the 3.125" pulley. It only made 11.2 psi though. Im starting a new thread in tech about swapping the pulley and remote tuning though. Here is the graph and a few pictures of the car and the new valve covers and finally my front koni struts.

 

[Liberty911]

Looks really nice!

I'm surprised the 3.125 had only 11.2 lbs. I was at 12.4 with the 3.25 with mine which was purchased in 12/09 and put on a a motor with 10k miles. The same HP and TQ numbers give or take a few.

Ive noticed a few posting smaller pulleys and lower boost. I wonder if Whipple / FFRP has changed something.

Look at his sig. Pure spam.

...I'm surprised the 3.125 had only 11.2 lbs...

Same here. I have a 2.3L Gen II w/3.625" pulley and can see damn near 11lbs on a good day. Verified at the Whipple factory in Fresno, CA.

The whipple instructions had me swap on the 100mm idler onto the stock tensioner, you think that is lowering boost?

No.

No.

What he said. Belt slip at the blower pulley would be the only way to lose boost.

 

[69Mach1-409]

Nice numbers!

I need to get mine back on the dyno now that I'm seeing 10-11 lbs.
