Default If your interested in the Whipple 2.9 for the C7 z06 come on in!!

Being a whipple dealer and I know we are waiting for the 2.9 whipple for our cars. Now to get this project moving im seeing what the actual interest is in a whipple kit here? The ctsv kits are selling well and they are interested in how the z community feels.

That being said... If Whipple came out with a bolt in 2.9 kit for your C7 Z06 and with a 11 psi pulley coming in around $6500-6750 shipped would you buy it? That would be a option of 90 or 102mm TB and the shipped price would include the tune for the car.

Now let me make this clear this thread is not to compare to other kits out there available for our cars but this thread is only for interest in a whipple 2.9 kit for them.

Thanks again.


Oh count me in for 1.

Is it going to fit under the stock hood? If so, then yes, I'm serious.

Losing a warranty going to a non-GM supercharger that may not clear the hood or cure the cooling problem?
Yup, forget even to bother with the inexpensive mod of changing pulleys on the factory unit....cool...

Got something in the work/solution for hood clearance and heat venting. Will update you guys soon. I can’t wait to see the specs on the Whipple’s overall height vs stock hood.

I'm in (under the stock hood only). Been in since a few years already, since they announced but under-delivered the 2.9

I’m interested if fit is clean and easy. I’m at 50k miles now. I’m sure I’ll hit 100k by the time this thing comes out and I won’t have a warranty anyway.

I thought this was months away for several years? Your post makes it sound like they haven't even started working on it.

The unit is there just accessory drive. They have been lagging to release it and I'm trying to show then we have a interest.

I can see the z06 kit selling more then ctsv kits. I'll get overall height info also

Norcal, can you please update your OP so that we don't have to keep writing "if it fits under stock hood"?
