Default Whipple 2.9

Anybody have a clue when the 2.9 Whipple is supposed to be released for the C7?? It's been a while now since they announced one was coming. I've always had good luck with Whipple as far as iat's and room to grow but I'm getting impatient.

This is cool news, they are pretty efficient however I would imagine that this set-up probably will not fit under the stock hood. I am sure they will offer a hood option like they do for the C6
I am also surprised that they didn't come out sooner because the base of the C6 unit could just be modified.

Yeah, it's not going to fit under the hood, but that 2.9 would be near limitless.
