On a side note...saw a nice looking Grand national today. Gonna cruise by later and hot wire that badboy,then take it for a spin

You can hot wire that turd all you want. The only that's gonna make it move is a flatbed. I'm guessing you visited Ted today. Had I know I would've swung by and autographed a picture for you.

jamie, you def life of the party...good to have you back...as for the lynch mob, i just believe when you shell out the kind of $$$ for a tb, that it should be obvious that it is for a high hp car and if there are issues that it should not be used with a sc or above 600rwhp, then it should be sold with a disclaimer...also since whipple has been trying to work with nw , it should of been brought up to nw vendors ...hopefully nick is really working to resolve this and not still tring to sell the tb,s that won,t work ...or at least notifying vendors that sells his stuff that it is not recomended for sc use....but have talked to a handful of sellers and whipple , and it was never released to the buying public that it was a issue...now that $$$$ has changed hands...the truth is coming out...the 600.00 is not gonna make or break me , its the principal behind the facts...if your product does not work and you cannot make it work for what it is designed to do...then offer refund /credit or exchange for one that does work...thats all i,m saying...I WANT MINE TO WORK..

I spent the day on the dyno with the Whipple 416 and didn't have a single problem at 732 RWHP, we do know they shut at 800 RWHP though.

Where at this power level I did have a problem with the Maggie pulling it shut.

I will tell you they work a lot better on the KB due to the location or proximity to the Rotors.

I would not expect a problem until 850 RWHP or more.

Ted.

honeybucket99 · 05-07-2012, 11:28 PM

Agree on the KB. No problems at 815

MudderFinger · 05-08-2012, 02:56 PM

I want to buy one, but not until the issues are resolved. I almost bought one a couple months back. Glad I waited it out a little.

JANNETTYRACING · 05-08-2012, 03:52 PM

Just off the dyno with another JRE 416 Whipple build and here are the results

I did not have any Problems on the dyno but that does not mean it won't happen on the street or track due to how fast the motor revs in lower gears.

Whipped416 · 05-08-2012, 06:54 PM

nice ... u got 17 lbs of boost out of the whipple! was this with a 2.75 pulley?

mikepage0007 · 05-08-2012, 07:16 PM

good info ted, curious, how did jamies respond on the dyno....did it close up on the dyno everytime..or was it more prone to happen in real world driving...not a dyno expert, but knowing how jamie drives , there is only foot off gas pedal and foot pushed hard to floor without letting up...i would expect it to run on dyno but not well at track due to instant 9 sec of wot.. 2nd - any chance this build will take car to track and see how it runs...

I can take this one. On the dyno it closed with the 3.2. So Ted tried the 3.4 and it stayed open, on the dyno. First pass at the track it closed almost instantly. Ted told TPIS how he wanted then made and we tried a TPIS/JRE 102. So now Im running the 3.4 coupled with the spacer makes 16 psi. :(If all goes well at the track this Thursday I'm gonna push for the 3.2.

But it's up to Ted. In the past, prob 1 1/2 ago, we also had the prob so Ted used a vette ls2 tb. The logs showed it stayed wfo on my glory run!

Just fix it so you don't have any excuses.

Mine's fixed!

One more day with the beginner pulley and that I'll have at it. Most likely the JRE rental for what seems like 20 grudge matches!
