ATI, KB, or Whipple.

[Shangsta]

Im gonna say kb. Everyone always talks about how the ati's are for all out drag cars. But the fastest 03/04's ive seen are running k/b 2.4's

Ford Racing is backing the Whipple its in the parts catalog.

here is my question...

1. Does the whipple or KB need tuning after install? Or is it just the direct replacment of the stock eaton?

What is the cheapest way to get to 600 rwhp? Whipple or KB? (if I need anything else to reach 600rwhp in addition to a whipple or KB, list those please).

Thanks.

bump, anybody?

so no one can answer my question? (I may bump this thread forever)

you do need tuning for either blower, even though theyare direct replacement. i would get the KB their costomer suport is not as good as it could be but thier products are very good. you can contact KB for things that you will need to get 600 hp as they provide almost all of it and they could suggest what else you will need. good luck

Well i finaly got a KB 2.2 I'm more than happy with it. Talk about pulling hard!

IMHO, if you want to win a race, go with a Procharger. It definetly has the advantage over the twin screws. People say, "You don't start making HP until like 4500RPM!" Yea, but when racing, when are you EVER going lower than 4500RPM unless your racing from a dig? Also, when you ARE racing from a dig, the power isn't quite instantaneous which allows you to launch a little better. I would personally go with a Procharger or Vortech if they have a unit out. Only thing I've heard on this board is that Procharger's aren't the most sturdy units around....tho I've heard that they have gotten their sh*t together.

If you want to your balls plastered to the back of your seat, I would go with the KB or Whipple. Just seems that you have power on tap whenever. But they're running out of juice while the prochargers are just getting started.

Whichever one you prefer is the one you should get....in the end I think you'll be happy no matter which one you get. BTW, don't spend the extra $$$ on the 2.4L or the upcoming Whipple 3.3L unless you're looking to make huge HP with huge amounts of boost and all the supporting mods. It won't make a single bit of difference if you're not...

The KB and the Whipple are the same blower.

A centrifugal (Procharger, Vortech) will make more HP than a twin screw (KB, Whipple) or that POS Eaton you have now.

But if you are gonna go through the trouble of changing why don't you look at a turbo, it will destroy any blower.

you are a retard. turbos lag blowers kick ass. whipple is not the same. whipple is roots style and KB is twin screw.

Don't be so quick to jump on Turbos. The lag really isn't a concern with V8's. Sure, if you have a blower you will get a jump, but once that turbo spools....bye bye. And to my knowledge, the Whipple is a twin-screw....just a different type of twin screw compared to the KB....

 

[XFACTOR]

Kenne Belle all the way man you can boost the crap out of it?!!!!!!!!!!

read the first page, Dustin spills out everything you need with the Whipple with each pulley size.

TURBO ALL DAY LONG :burnout: :burnout: :burnout: :burnout: :burnout: :burnout: :banana: :banana: :read:

 

[96_slow4.6]

It depends....

If you want to keep the T56, IRS, 3.55s and a stock longblock....then get either the KB or the Whipple.

If you are plaiing to build up the motor, swap in an auto, a solid rear, 4.10s and a cog drive.... then get the Procharger.

Or....

If you enjoy crazy low-end - mid range power...get the KB or the Whipple.

If you desire only crazy top - end power then get the Procharger

i agree with this. i would personally get the ati just cuz i personally cant really stand the whinning of the roots style blowers. thats just me tho. good luck!

sounds like the KB or Whipple would be great for you then because neither are a roots blower. :burn:

 

[HunterC]

[427Lightning]
