Default Whipple guys - Roll Call!

I just wanted to get a feel for how many of us here have whipple superchargers on their trucks (or SUVs). Lets see how many we have. Post up your vehicle info and how long you've had the charger.

I have a 2-belt whipple system on my 2003 Z71 Tahoe, which is my daily driver. Other than that its bone stock. I didn't install the whip electronics, instead used EFI Flashscan to tune it. I've had it on for about 8 months now. I was fortunate that my Hoe is a flex fuel vehicle and the stock injectors are large enough to support the whipple without problem.

I've had mine for almost 6 months now. Other than the tranny blowing up in 2 weeks, I've been trouble free. The level 5 from FLT has been holding up great.

I too ditched the piggyback system in favor of 44# injectors and a Nelson tune. I'm running 9 psi, and a Snow Performance meth kit to cool it down. I went 13.53 at 99.9 last weekend, and I think I should be able to shave at least .3 with a little more tuning.

The old '96 has been Whippled since the fall of '97, possibly the longest time on here. Obviously longer than any 99+ trucks. Was one the first generation whipple kits for Vortecs with the progresstive pressure control FMU. Surprisingly no problems with the Whipple components, just ran through Fuel pumps. I love the whipple torque from 1500+rpm and still puts out 6.5psi just like 9 years ago, never had to rebuild it. Oh yea, still rockin the spider system injectors with the whipple electronics
