The thing is the manual of Whipple supercharger.

It recommends using 5107 and making the gap reduced 0.032"

Is there any reason for that? and seems it is more reasonable to use 6501 and make the smaller adjustment.

and I am using only 9~11PSI (planning), should I adjust the gap? or leave it like 0.4" around. It is quite confusing. Ted said 0.039~0.04 would good for more power due to the system is different from other vehicles while Whipple said 0.032" is recommended.

Thank you.
We are using 6509 LTR6IX-11 gap at 0.042 on builds below 10psi boost.

I found the 7s would foul occasionally if you do too many cold starts without driving the car hard.
