Default Ford Whipple Update

I did a search for this topic or anything related to it and I couldnt find anything. Is there something wrong with the search function right now?

I am wondering if anyone has updates on the Ford Whipple for the 2006 GT.

- When is it supposed to hit production/sales?

- What is the package supposed to include?

- How much is it supposed to cost?

- What is the HP production estimated at?

- What upgrades should be made? (I.E - larger injectors, pulley, plugs, etc)

Whipple has claimed their blower will be out next month for six months.

The Calabi-Yan Manifold string theory claims that the universe is comprised of six or more dimensions.

Which is more far-fetched?

Considering we can only account for 4 dimensions....... the Whipple coming out next month theory is far more unbelievable.

To me the whipple release is now at "some day"

And I would figure a while after that to let a few people buy them. I wouldent want to be the first.

Yeah, I was just wondering if that "some day" would fall within our current 4th demension... that way some people could start saving and if they get that sudden itch to buy **** - they could always get the recommended upgrades. I would NEVER be in the first 100 sales of anything like that. But thanks for the crafty responses. I suppose we shall all just sit here and ponder the unknowns.

What bothers me is WHY there are continuing delays in releasing this kit. Being the skeptic that I am, I'm wondering how many shortblocks they holed.

My guess is at least a few trying to attain the numbers they are claiming. I won't be surprised if they lower the hp and torque numbers when it releases (I would actually be surprised if they didn't).
