New or used whipple

[AUSTINSCOBRA]

I just looked at a used whipple 2.3 yesterday, looks clean, still in the car. Owner claims less than 3k miles on it. He's selling it w/60# injectors, KB BAP, SCT mass air, 3.5,3.0,2.75 pulley. I really like it, but I'm lil iffy on getting a used blower. Is it worth getting a used blower or should I get a new one? I know it's really up to me, but I just want feedback from people who bought em used.

Thanks

I don't know about the whipple's,but i bought a kb and it's looks and works great.It all depends on how much money you are willing to spend.

Looks like most people on here try to sell used ones for as much as you can by a new one for from Tousley Ford.

Depends how much money you have/can spend??? If money isn't a issue then buy his fuel set up and get a New Whipple fromSteve at Tousley Ford ($2,9XX)

if it was me, i'd get a new one. i would honestly shoot someone if i bought a used one and it would go bad a week later.


but if you hurting on money, i guess. i'd say save up somemore.

You never said how much he was selling it for. or why. all i'm gonna say is if you're going to buy used, a whipple is probably your best bet. especially if it's in buddy's car. did he take you for a boot? as long as it wasn't run dry on oil (very unlikely) it'll outlast the engine itself. really, it could be a good opportunity, depending on the price.

$3800 for the whole package... It's an okay price, not the best deal in world IMO

Not a good deal at all. You are saving about $200 on that deal there, and all for used stuff also.
