Description:
Whipple™ Tuner Intercooled Supercharger Kits do not include tuning or fuel componants. Be ready to provide your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) for your vehicle that you intend to install the Supercharger on when an Andysautosport.com customer service representative calls you to confirm your order.
Since 1987, Whipple Superchargers™ have been the pioneers and leaders of twin-screw supercharging. Whipple was the first to bring positive displacement technology to fuel injected, emissions legal General Motors (GM) applications.

Cadillac trucks and SUV’s. With all the latest technology, the all new Whipple system makes more power than any other positive displacement supercharger system on the market giving you tire frying, neck whipping power that will give you a grin from ear to ear. The new Whipple system is 100% complete and is designed for stock engines but has enough capability to work with heavily modified engines.
Intercooled Supercharger Systems - The all-new system features Whipple’s massive oversized air-to-water intercooler for unmatched cooling capacity, W140ax Whipple twin-screw supercharger that reaches 99% volumetric efficiency and industry leading power potential.

Q: What does a supercharger kit do? Why buy a supercharger?
A: A supercharger is a form of forced induction. Superchargers offer perhaps the most dramatic increase in horsepower to your car of any aftermarket products. By compressing the air, it lets the engine stuff more air into a cylinder. More air means that more fuel can be stuffed in, too, so you get more power from each explosion in each cylinder. A supercharger's power supply comes from a belt that connects directly to the engine. It gets its power the same way that your water pump or alternator does.
Q: Does a supercharger kit come with everything you need? Or is there a pre-condition my vehicle needs to meet in order to be able to handle a supercharger kit?
A: When purchasing a supercharger setup they are vehicle specific which means it will come with everything needed for a direct bolt-on. If you're looking to up the boost past the stock 6 to 8 psi that it comes with stock other modifications will need to be made.
Q: How do you install a supercharger?
A: Superchargers are vehicle-specific, and they will come with everything needed for a direct bolt-on.
