Any videos of 1/4 or draggy videos out there?

Im thinking an extra 250+ to the wheels will be very impressive for 0-60 and 1/4 mile times!!!!

Im considering this also -... is it as 'plug and play' as commented in the video?

no fuel pump rails injectors cooling upgrade, etc?

If you run the out of the box tune- that is correct. The OEM fuel system can keep up.

Cooling could be significatly worse, or exaclty the same- depending on when, what and how. When during the year, what you are doing, and how you are dirving it.

The cooling system is not desinged for the extra 250 HP. It's probably borderline at stock levels on hot days. Since you live in the UAE, I'd highly recommend NOT adding an extra 250 HP to a system not designed for it.

Until tuning gets worked out- I'd wait on this mod. I rode in one- not impressive at all, ran a 11.6 down the 1/4. Stock is 12.0 -11.9

I actually just installed this kit last weekend in my 2024 R. For the most part it is "Plug and Play". When you install the kit you need to cut 2 of the factory supercharger coolant lines and extend/reroute them. I would say that is probably the only thing that is not "Plug and Play" but Whipple support is awesome and they respond to emails with actual pictures to help on every little thing. Their customer support is 10/10. The install took me about 6-8 hours but I really took my time and this is the first mechanic thing I have done other than a CAI or Exhaust mod on a vehicle.
