Yes, it does clear the stock hood. And yes, it is pretty darn close. I did not do any fuel upgrades, other than when I bought the Whipple kit, I went with the larger 72# injectors. If/when I go smaller pulley, I will add a BAP.Originally Posted by somethingclever
Are you upgrading your clutch. I just got the McLeod RXT for mine because stock ones don't like that power.

I will at some point, but I am in no hurry. I pretty much never launch my car. I think it will hold fine for a while. Once it starts to go, I will probably go same route as you with the McLeod clutch.
Nice choice Joe! Will you be rowing gears by summer?

I hear ya. It's definitely on the list. But I think I have plenty of time. Especially the way I drive lol Also, for my regular daily driving, I keep my boost set at noticeably reduced levels in gears 1 thru 3. Which is also the gears I spend 50% of my driving time in. Once my wallet recoups from the Whipple, I will certainly be looking to upgrade the clutch.
Just curious..What exactly do you mean when you say you have your boost set at reduced level in gears 1-3?
Within the Whipple tune, you can adjust boost levels by gear. You are able to reduce boost levels up to 25% reduction. You can do it in each gear individually, or across the board as all inclusive gears. It only takes about 30 seconds to adjust the levels as well.
That's an awesome feature for the strip I bet....
It really has a lot of cool features in it. I'd say you can do it on the "fly". But, you do at least have to be stopped and have the lap top connected. Then there are many features available. One feature I really like that you can enable is "octane detect". It will automatically adjust the tune if you add some race full or Torco. And on the flip side, it will also adjust, and pull timing if you run into some bad/low octane gas. You can also go full race mode and turn off all the nannies, and also manually adjust timing. All within a couple minutes.
That is interesting. Is this a tune that comes with the whipple kit or what?

As long as you buy the full kit and their "flare tool" with the kit, and you upgrade to their 72# injectors. Then it comes with it as part of their tune.
Does it explain how it reduces boost levels? Boost reduction on a pd blower has been talked about a lot in the past. This is the first I've heard of it.
I haven't seen the explanation myself, no. But the info may be out there.
I wonder if it uses some kind of air volume reduction through the diverter valve? Do they even have a bypass or diverter valve?
