Default FRP (Whipple) supercharger review

For any of you considering a supercharger for your ride, give serious thought to the FRP 200hp intercooled kit. I just installed mine, the instructions were very good, the parts fit and worked to my expectations. The power is awesome. I couldn't imagine that everything would actually be in the box and fit without any modification, it all did.

I have a friend that is a big MOPAR guy, I will have yo use your hemi removal line on him. The dyno run is set for Thursday. Bear in mind that I am at 5500 ft of elevation, I only am building 8#s of boost due to the altitude. Though they claim 500hp, I would be very pleased with 450hp, a 10% loss for the altitude is almost assumed. We also have a G-Tech Accerometer, I hope to run it this weekend and see how it compares to my previous tests; as delivered by Ford and after the FRP cold air intake. I will post test results when available.

I had my car run on the dyno today and I got an "A" on my report card. 464hp and 460.6 ft/#s of torque. I am thrilled.

I am sure you will be thrilled with the outcome. I spent about 10-11 hours doing the install and was worth every minute. Keep me posted on how you make out. Also remember, my numbers are probably about 10% low due to my high altitude. If you are near sea level you should achive better numbers.

Did you forge your internals? If not, when you got it dynoed did they say that it might be a problem at that Hp level or do they concider it to be in the internals threshold. The reason I ask is I am looking into the same setup but I worried about engine damage. Because I was told safe power levels were 450 HP to the crank and you are getting 464 hp to the wheels.

Did you consider putting wheel spacers on so you can use your stock polished 18s? U know what size wheel spacer is needed so the calipers won't rub the wheel?
Let me know if you know
Thanks

I heard you needed 1'' spacer.

Really great job congrats. And that's some good numbers for your alt.

When it's time to tune it I would recommend Tillmans. Chris had tune quite a few with great numbers.

I'm also interested in this kit from FRP. I've been looking around at the ford site and have not found whether or not it requires me to tap into the oiling pan/system. I'm looking for a super simple application for daily driving only and i'm currently torn between the procharger p-1sc-1 an the FRP kit.

Many thanks.

No, the blower contains it's own lube oil. The only plumbing is the intercooler hoses and pump.
