Daily driven 2005 GT Auto Whipple @ 16psi 577 rwhp 519 rwtq

Gotta love the way that whipple sounds...:)[8D]

very nice, it's like being in the
car...

thanks for sharing!

Awesome .... what gas is he using at the track ?:eek:

100 octane I believe.

ONly 9 mph faster in trap speed than me.:eek: I think 16psi is enough for me. I can't imagine trying to get your car down the track. There were a couple times on his runs that I thought he was heading for the wall.

Thanks for posting Mark. Awesome vids!!

Our 10 second pass at the Bradenton NMRA season opener. 3.4L Whipple@18psi on our GT500. Best MPH that day was 137. That was the first time down the track with the new setup.

Damn - that mph is good for a high 9 - so it's got plenty left in it once you dial it in!

very cool.....

Yeah the MPH is definitely there. That was our first visit to the track with the Whipple and we only got 3 runs with it. That was also with the largest pulley that came with the kit, pump gas, stock fuel system, stock gears and 265 MT drag radials. Some drag wheels and slicks and a few more runs down the track with good conditions should be the ticket for a high 9.

We're putting in a Ram Street Dual 900 Series and some 3.73's as well as some MT Drags so we'll find out what she's capable of shortly.

Jared

that's one impressive stang you got, Jared. we definately got some fast stangs in the whipple crew!

Damn I knew I wanted one before but Now I cant wait...... oops 2nd motgage time.

Hey modaddict how is the 3.4 coming, We going to see some track vids from you? that would be nice!
the 55r5 transmission was reworked? what was done to it? level 10 kit and the 3300 PI stall?

That whine is awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, excellent vids modaddict and Jared.
Jared, your car is crazy. I want, badly. Its as fast as a 600cc supersport motorcycle......which is just silly!

Nice :D

Opps sorry here to crash the whipple party :Ddamn 137 in the 1/4 thats good stuff[sm=smiley20.gif]

I don't think you'll need any practice runs. I would bet money with the clutch, 3.73's, and the new rubber - you will hit a 9 the first pass out. Congrats again on a bitchin' car!![sm=icon_cheers.gif]

My car is pretty much done but just narrowing down the drive-ability tuning on Monday. The car will for sure be at Irwindale next Thursday and I'll have some vids. I'm really excited to get it out and see what it can do.:)

I am jealous of horsepower right now. Awesome vids fellas

Im gonna need a built motor...16psi coming soon [&:]

when you say beefed up what do you mean ? what did they do to the transmission?

A steak inside the tranny ? uhmmmmm never thought of it ... :eek: wait a sec .... what if I want to beef up my engine? [&:] will the exhaust smell like a BBQ ?

Very funny, I prefer well doneactually!

I just can't make up my mind between getting the Saleen base kit (5PSI), which I can easily upgrade later if I want after tranny work, or get the Whipple HO kit now and worry about the tranny all the time, lol ( I race at least twice a month)

The Saleen comes with the intercooler already, not so much worried about using it for high boost just yet, but more concerned because this is my daily driver in AZ and heat will be an issue, so the Saleen I can get now and in the future only have swap pulleys, injectors, etc...to add more boost.

It seems like upgrading the Whipple kit isalot more involved so I might as well just get the HO kit to start withbut worried it will be too much for AUTO drivetrain, I still have 16000 miles of warranty of on this car !! lol

I can get the Saleen for $5700 installed locally
I can get the Whipple HO kit installed for $6500 installed locally

Opinions ?

Not a whipple crew member but that lethal video is sick!

Both are great kits, the whipple has more potential after 14psi because that is about the limit for the Saleen. If you decide on the Saleen go with either Brenspeed stage 2 or 3 or the Saleen SC with the 475hp upgrade. As for heat trust me its going to get hot, the SC put off a lot of heat, but there are things you can do to fix that, JDM has the new intercooler for the Saleen SC's and I am pretty sure someone make a larger one for the whipple, you can also get an ice box for a resievor (sorry about the spelling) or a functional hood (vent/ram air maybe), as for the tranny I am running a stick so can't offer any advise there.

Didn't mean to steal the thread. Someone please chim in about cooling a whipple.

I heard the whipple H.O. intercooler is the biggest out of the twinscrews.

flip a coin, you'll be happy with
either

@desslok40 get the Whipple HO with a 7 psi pulley and you'll be fine.

I went Whipple. It says Ford on the side so...
It's sitting next to me right now waiting to be put in!! :D

Great vids! Love it!

+ 1, If you know you want more power later I would just get the whipple HO for auto's. Makes 7psi and is good for 425rwhp-ish. That level is find for an auto from what I have read.

Then down the line when you get a better tranny, it is just a pulley swap and tune and you are pumping out 475rwhp+.

Good luck.
