Update on a kit for the ZR1. Going to need a bigger blower my stock ZR1 blower is maxed out very soon.

I am going to guess it wont. I only know of one roots style system that fits under the stock hood and that was the Dragon Race Engineering kit that utilized a Whipple blower but I can only remember seeing one kit to this day. I think Dustin might be talking about the 4.5L blower but then I could be wrong and if I am that means there are even more surprises coming from Whipple

You see postings from speed shops all over the country with pics and dyno numbers of other superchargers. Other than the pics from the guys at whipple I have not seen a single posting. I really like the kits whipple has shown us, numbers look awesome. But what gives, Magnuson has an awesome customer based following. Hell they don't even have to advertise the customers do it for them. I would really like a whipple kit on my future vette, but you would like to see some real data from the average guy who has no real connection to whipple. Is anybody else thinking what I'm thinking.

Look on LS1 tech or the like, those guys use all kinds of blowers because they fit under the hoods.
Ive seen one guy with 666whp/6xxwtq in a LS3 camaro with a Whipple

No doubt we are talking some serious HP gains I just wonder what all comes in the kit and how much it will be?

Hopefully it comes with injectors, plugs and any other miscellaneous parts you may need.

I just watched the show "2 guys garage" on Speed. They installed a whipple on a 2010 Camaro. The kit looked really nice.I wish someone would install one on a vette and do a write up.
