Whipple or magnacharger

[zippy]

Make sure if you buy a Magnacharger kit that it has the CARB legal stickers and all items to match or it isn't going to do any good. It's a shame they never paid to get the TVS2300 kits for the older trucks to pass for CARB as that would be your best option. Edelbrock does have a TVS2300 kit listed as CARB legal though and may be worth checking into. On the Whipple side of things there are two sides of that. They were the first.... and the worst. Fixing the fueling issue by adding injectors to the system or adding in an FMU is not how supercharger kits should have been sold. The early kits also had no intercooler and likely wouldn't have later on if Magnacharger hadn't released their product that way. The Whipple is just now catching up in technology that Magnacharger/Eaton has been making work for quite some time. The tuning that comes with a Magnacharger isn't great, but Whipple tuning included in the kit is much worse. The intercooler technology has been stepped up quite a bit in recent time, but really needs to be. A screw type blower such as the Whipple and Kenne Bell is designed to make boost and not move air. The Eaton simply forces air into the motor and boost is a biproduct of the pressure it takes to move that much air into the motor. The Whipple and Kenne Bell design creates boost like an air compressor and then moves it to the cylinders. This does make them more efficient at higher boost levels than the Eaton design, but at cruising speeds with low airflow the efficiency goes down even with the bypass open. This show's itself when you read the IAT's produced by each blower system at cruising speeds. The Magnacharger system is a tried and true very proven system and outsold the Whipple hands down for years and will continue to do so. If you want to only use the vehicle for racing then I would pick the Whipple over the Magnacharger. It is better at higher boost levels and has alot larger range in size. If you want a kit that pretty well has the bugs worked out of it and still makes impressive power go with the Magnacharger.

 

If you'd like to discuss your product on here more Dustin feel free. Just keep in mind Whipple is an uphill battle because of their past. They were the first and often times only for certain things, but that doesn't mean those first and only's were done right.
