under estimated my whipple decision
08 Bullitt- 6 months after Whipple install- with great help from this forum, I realize the blower was a really cool choice. However, as I said in the title- I really underestimated the effect of the power increase- I have 12 psi of boost (11 if it is HOT) and (FRPP) tires brakes and suspension etc- just like Cobra set up (for the most part).
Traction Control ON- is scary- the car bumps off the "rev limiter" constantly-
Traction control off- the car is insane unusable power. 1st gear you want to get out of ASAP, 2nd, 3rd and 4th spin after 4,000 rpm even at partial throttle. I have seen redline (Hill Country TX twisty roads) rarely since I put it on.
I love the raw power feel, etc. But I never thought it would ever put this much power out, nor what it would do/ feel like.
Thanks for letting me voice...
I love this (our) car.
Rock on- Bro's

Truth is I am not reall sure how much "faster I am"
The car does not want to hook up.
I rememeber as a kid I used to think that cars that "caught rubber" quickly in the gear shifts was as good as it got. I would really llike that kind of traction real world with the Whipple Mustang set up.

F1 Supercars on SVT rims. The tires have rocks and gravel stuck to them after I roll into the driveway. But you are right- I need even stickier rubber or a hook up program-for a non- 1/4 mile driver.
Again- I guess the point is Whipple (at least my experience) is superlative power- now it is your choice (problem) to work with it.

Ok Senor Mikey- 100HP nitous shot 11 second GT 500 conversion bad boy. I need to spend more time on the forum - at this point you got the 1/4 mile time and the traction to do it (sub 11)
