Another Lethal Performance Exclusive!!

Here's a short video clip of the 2.9L prototype being tested on an SS out at Whipple's facility in Fresno, CA.

Here's how the car did.
Keep in mind this is a prototype kit where the system is a few percent less efficient than production systems because its a rear entry with a restricted inlet. Expect higher numbers from the production front entry less restrictive intake system

The ca made 519rwhp, 91 octane, 8.25psi, stock exhaust, stock filter box, stock everything but the 2.9L Supercharger. 500lbs of torque, I'll have a dyno sheet tomorrow. This was on the 13th run and the car was hot. Whipple will do cool run tomorrow. Af is 11.9:1.

The first 10 prototype kits will be ready for testing in 3-5 weeks. Once the kits have all been tuned and tested if everything looks good we're going into production which will take a few more weeks. Hopefully we'll see production kits available by the end of Feb 2010.

Here's the first casting and parts for the 2010 camaro kit. As I get more images and updates I'll post up.

Thanks, Jared

Jared, where are the prototype kits going? Any chance I can get my hands on one? We have a new Camaro shipping in next week to replace the last one, and this time I want to actually mod it!!!

They better ramp-it-up because the competition is getting fierce. Magnacharger is selling tons of TVS units, Vortech too and now the Dragon Race 3.4 Whipples are shipping.

Competition? There is no competition for Whipple.
