Whipple
 
Word to the wise, do not pay for a Whipple unless you have the blower in your hands.

They are running into problems with the supplier.

This is information from Dustin.

Who is they? Is it everyone?

BlkTremor02 01-17-2006 07:38 PM

when was this taken in place? They have heard from me already, since I am having some problems with mine, so I have to send it back in and see what the hell is going on with mine. I already have a claim number and everything, just waiting on the tech to call me to tell me what to do!

uh oh, doesnt sound good for the weekend.

good thing im looking for a turbo, i thought abou finding a 3l and whipple, nevermind.

I sell Whipples and recently delivered one and the problems are in Whipple's housings. They thought they would be fixed by now but they arent! The waiting time on most Whipple superchargers is 3-6 months still! I had a customer order one for their Ranger and it only two weeks to get but it arrived DAMAGED! He was pissed as was I. It is now taking them forever to ship the damn thing back out! It's been a month and still no word when they will ship it back out! I dont recommend Whipple to anyone anymore and I would advise anyone looking to do one to use the 2500+ as a down payment on a 4.0.

No No, its good man! Its driveable and all, I fixed the problem temporary for now!

Some jack*** put a knife to my vaccum line and that is why I wasn't getting any boost lately, and I've been having problems with it though, just it wasn't really affecting it at all, and now it just doesn't seem to do its thing anymore! LOL...It works when it wants to, I still get from point a to point b though!

No worries for the weekend man! i will show you what I am talking about though!

They is Whipple or anyone who wants to order one from whipple, unless the seller already has it.

I sold one and it shipped pretty prompt once a pricing issue got worked out. This has been in the last couple of weeks.

INT3RC3PTOR 01-23-2006 07:18 AM

hmmm interesting...., but 2,500 will get you more than a down payment on a 4.0, you can usually find one for less than that..

4.0 + EE S/C = Drool

034x4 01-23-2006 01:33 PM

I'm going to whipple mine.

Hey wanna donate money so I can buy a whipple?

*lol at and-e shizzle*

INT3RC3PTOR 01-23-2006 02:15 PM

dam.. there ya go askn for money again...lol

04Sonicedge 01-23-2006 02:19 PM

The damage issues from Fed Ex for the one I delivered just now got cleared up after two months of fighting with Whipple. I DO NOT recommend them at all!

INT3RC3PTOR 01-23-2006 02:54 PM

:#1:

:104[1]: :429[1]: i was thinking about a whipple toooo...i guess i'll just put a downpayment on an 06...or by then an 07 lvII YAY!!! :#1:

INT3RC3PTOR 01-26-2006 01:33 AM

yea.. cause i was perty serious about getting the whipple, even this summer.... but now, idk if i wanna deal with the drama thats come up. I'll prolly do a 4.0 swap instead, and then later on EE S/C

04Sonicedge 01-26-2006 09:06 AM

Whipple just raised prices also by the way. Again, you can use it as a downpayment for a 4.0L for sure now. Whipple is making a HUGE mistake.

Late update-As of a month ago, back in business. New blower, not the Lysholm (sp).

Looks like a roots blower to me.....
