I've used TVS(eaton), KB and whipple blowers in the past on different applications, from trucks to cars. All have been fine for me, in this Florida heat. Sans the KB, which have all leaked in a short order of time. Never will buy one again for any application.
Not planning to try to squeeze every HP out of this engine/truck, so possibly losing potentially 100rwhp doesn't mean that much to me. 330rwhp at times can put you in some oh shit moments while offroading in certain terrain. ~500rwhp will be a fun&scary challenge/learning curve. I've been out on all day trail/offroading events with guys with whipple and roush superchargers. I was impressed by both. The guy with the roush never had to let off due to overheating/hearing detonation fwiw.
If I want to build a high horsepower, squeeze every HP out of the vehicle, I'll add another GT500 in a few years.
Sorry I let you down lol
Hey, I'm ok with your choice anything is better than a NA 6.2L
To be honest though I thought it was RocketW19 when I read your post.
The numbers thing you guys got at the end of your screen name threw me off.
Without knowing what the two Raptors exact mods were and what fuel they were running, plus how did each driver ran their truck,
that is going to be pretty hard to make an assumption either way.
There are all kinds of upgrades for both Whipple and Roush.
And many different Tunes.
Roush uses two HE for there upgrade.
Whipple has had three different HE setups.
Injectors play a roll in detonation, do we know what Whipple was running.
The 47 lbs. really cannot keep up with cooling and wetting the cylinder wall down at that power level.
This is one of the reasons why Whipple changed to a new 60 lbs. injector for their Stage II
I'm interested to see what JDM is going do with the 78 lbs. injector on MetroNYC's truck.
