So what would I have to do to get 500hp out of a whipple? Just change the pully and get a tune? Just trying to decide between the whipple and the KB.

mustang06 - just curious what the Roush with the Procharger produced. I have a friend that just put one on his 05GT and is disappointed with his numbers and the way the power comes on. He was told he would be 475 - 500 RWHP and wound up struggling to get 440 RWHP - think the torque is 375 RW.
I am still working with Whipple to resolve the slight lean condition and will probably get a new flash-tune with a little extra fuel from them. Just got my fuel pressure guage installed and we wantted to check pressure 1st before going into the tune - looks to be right on the money too. If needed , there is an outfit here in Nashville that can custom tune it, or I could go to Memphis - New Orleans is a pretty good drive from here, but if I get a wild hair might do it. Thanks for the advice dude.

Thanks Wally - My car is Tungten grey too, with light silver strips. I like the way it looks under sunlight, almost has a purple tint to it. I was close to pulling the trigger on a Saleen Charger too and researched how you could use the C&L Cold Air Kit. JDM is the company that had a picture of a Saleen Charger with a C&L on and it looked KILLER! Probably what really was the final deciding factor was that I knew FRRP had input into Whipple's design and it used Ford injectors & fuel pump. Like I said on another thread, Saleen,KB and Whipple are just different versions of the same thing - can't really go wrong if you want a twin screw & choose one of those IMHO.
Have you had a dyno pull? I'd be interested in how your Stang did and how the torque curve looks. Mine looks like a slight hump with a peak of 433, but put out 400 LBs of torque at 3200 RPM.

Shock & Awe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Something else thats kinda cool and this thread IS about Whipples. While on the phone with tech support at Whipple the other day, they were testing a new model "BIG" blower on a donor GT500. Lets just say that "Shock and Awe" has another meaning that will be revealed soon. Get ready to change out your factory blower and INSTALL a Whipple if you own 1 of these, matter of fact, makes me think about selling the Roush for a bigger, badder & faster toy

RE: Shock & Awe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was able to fit the C&L intake, because JDM has these rubber boots that fit nicely. I had to use the engine lowering mounts so that big black C&L hose would fit under the hood. It still touches, but not bad. I would have went with the whipple, but at the time they weren't released yet and I didn't want to wait lol. Here is a pic of my dyno sheet. I hope it's readable. This is with 6lbs of boost. Not bad considering I lose more horsepower through my driveline being an automatic.
