Just bought the Whipple HO!!
Just got off the phone with Steve @ Tousley Ford and got my ticket to the promised land! Whipple HO baby! 2-3 weeks for delivery. I guess I gotta try and get some better N/A times before it gets here. No longer will I only be able todream of the beautiful Whipple whine!
A few of these are in order:
PS: doing the install myself, so be ready for some questions guys.

I think you're going to need a new clutch.
I know you've been beating on the stock one at the track.

I'll be going with the FRPP tune initially. Prob head up to VMP for a dynotune after a few monthes or so.

Smart move, how long before you have some 1/4 times? With your NA times, i'm expecting 11's the first trip. If you plan on power shifting, you'd better get the thumprrr tensioner. You'll break the stock tensioner and the belt with it.

Got that taken care of my friend! When my synchros went out, I decided to also do the spec 2+ clutch, a light weight flywheel, spydershaft and MGW shifter. She's good and ready for the Whipple!
