Whipple Phase 2 winter project

Jhunsberger · 12-12-2018, 06:32 AM

So my 17 SS M6 currently sits with the following mods:

620rwhp/595tq (07/2018)
Whipple SC, 3.50 pulley
LT4 HPFP & Injectors
Roto-Fab dry CAI
NEP Cat delete pipes (all 4)
Borla ATAK full exhaust NPP with mid-pipe resonator (was not retuned after install)
Catch can
P3 Gauge

The mods below I will be installing over the winter, all purchased, not yet all delivered.

18" drag pack (purchased late fall, was not able to get to the track with it)
NW 103 TB
LT4 Low side pump
Kooks 2" LT no cats, jet hot coated
Granatelli plug wires with heat sheilds
Fresh set of NGK-6509 plugs
DSS HD axles
Gforce drive shaft
PCM of NC Manual Fan Switch

I might try and have it tuned with stock TB and then install the NW TB to see the difference in just the NW TB. We shall see how it all shakes out. Also trying to piece together a larger intake tube to replace the whipple supplied rubber tube, any suggestions there? I reached out to Roto-Fab to see if they have a solution.

Cant wait to hit the track in the spring and hopefully not smoke the clutch!

Which drag pack did you go with? On the P3 gauge, can you see the % ethanol for your fuel?

I am thinking about adding the P3 to my setup or changing to a different adm gauge so I can see the fuel trim.

Not sure if it can display %E, it has aux inputs, so i suppose it can. I run just pump gas.

Yes it should display E percentage if it plugs into the obd2 port. Any guage should that reads PID's.

Sounds like you will be faster come spring. Keep us updated. I got some stuff planned for my build over the winter as well. I will post up something when I get it figured out.

Awesome, Rob! let us know what you have planned! I hope to knock it out in a weekend in late January with the help of 2 others, i think its doable. A little more HP and a lot more traction.

My Whipple is on the way also a winter project, hope to run 10's on DR's everything else will be stock.

When did you order? I ordered mine Black Friday and I’m waiting for a shipping label.

Also, good luck with the build. I’ll be similar to yours as I’m a manual also but I’m impressed with your mph and et. How have your street tires done so far?

With DR's you should be able to get into the 10's for sure, Hope your build goes well!

My best pass was about as good as it gets with my setup, considering the street tires. they have impressed my for what they are. I am sure since they are bigger than stock (Continental Extreme Contact Sport 305/35/20), that helps as well, reducing the tire pressure to 20 at the track made a difference too.

best of luck with your build, research and take your time.

About how many hours does it take to install?

My friend and I did it, we are both mechanically inclined, he is also a certified mechanic, so we had the proper tools as well. We also did the LT4 HPFP and injectors at the same time. We tore down 1 weekend, about 12 hours, and then did the install the following weekend which was about 16 hours. The only issue we had really was our puller was not long enough to thread into the crank. But other than that it went pretty good. The worst part is putting the front bumper back on.

Make sure to install a LS crank seal GM part # 12585673 while the lower pulley is off.

Heck yeah, you should be good to go then! Enjoy the build!
