Interesting results.
Whipple 3.4L W210ax Preliminary Test Results! Come On in!!
- Thread starter black03
- Start date
I have a fully built engine in mine. I'll donate for the testing........ If I get to keep the Whipple. 20 lbs' of boost, no problem.

My "L" is just begging for a Whipple.
Here is the engine.

Hey Jared, ask Dustin to give you the test vid so you can post it. I've already seen it, but I'm not allowed to post it.
Vids, did you say VIDS?

Yeah I wish I could post it but I promised the source I wouldn't share. Maybe Jared or Dustin will post it...
Bumpage
bump for the vids...
Am I the only one that really isn't impressed with those results or am I missing something. Seeing 500HP ~18-19#s doesn't seem any better than a 2.3KB....The IAT2 temps look good though I guess...
500+ hp on a completely stock motor is pretty impressive to me. Figure with a good set of heads and cam, and exhaust, that boost level will be lower, with ver nice powernoahdr said:
The key points are that the s/c is spinning MUCH slower to make the 18-19# compared to a KB of any size or the 2.3 Whipple, secondly the lower IAT2 temps that coincide with the effective greater efficiency make for a much safer discharge. These factors result in making said ~500 hp with less effort and at a greater safety margin than smaller s/c can and this pricipal continues all the way up to it's rated 30# continuous/14,000 rpm limit.
This s/c makes 18-19 with a 7.5" (stock) lower and 4" upper = 10,312 s/c rpm @ 5500 engine rpms (common shift point).
With a 7.5" lower and 3.75" upper it makes 20-21# = 11,000 s/c rpm @ 5500 once again.
On my engine with a JLP plenum and 2.3 KB I use a 9.75" (8#) lower and 3" upper to make 20# = 17,875 s/c rpm @ 5500!
I have to spin my KB 61% faster (11,000 divided by 17,875 = .615) to get the same results along with IAT2's of 150-160*!!
I guess I got carried away, lol. I'm just excited about this FINALLY happening.

Bob you are really good at math. Purdy smart
so do you think this will be good enough to cross the 700rwhp mark? I just want to see a built one on a dyno and if it gets 700 or close I'm buying one.
I think it will boil down to how much boost it takes for conditions on a built engine. I may not be the first to try but I'm going for the 700+ RWHP mark. :thumbsup:
this new blower couldnt of come at a better time, I was beginning to feel like the other trucks were beginning to catch up. This will keep us safely on top for a few more years.
Jonesing for more info!!

That makes two of us hehehe:rockon: I personally would love to see 750 street tune and 800 race tune..................hey I can dream can't I? And yeah you can't start a rumor about a video when there are junkies like me around. Someone PLEASE post the vid
This thread is useless with out vids!
Isn't 20 degrees of timing at those RPM's a little nuts?
That is a lot of spark but when supported with proper octane and low enough IAT2 temps it works.

or in short "it's all in the tune"...octane aside
