Whipples for the Whippersnappers

[Alan Applegate]

I truly wonder about the realities of installing a Whipple, or any other forced induction system, on a street vehicle? I agree 800+ HP is certainly a talking point, but I'm talking about practicality here. Better put, a driver's ability to handle a vehicle so equipped?

Just today another member was wondering about safe cornering after a Whipple installation, and for good reason. I can easily get my Eco-Boost to swap ends and/or head for a curb of destruction, like all those in YouTubes titled Mustangs being Mustangs! All this with just 315 HP! I don't for many reasons, not the least of which is age.

The best advice I (as an elder) can give anyone planning on upping the ante by 300+, is to learn to drive first, and not learn 2 seconds before your own eternity!

Some may already have their driving skills in order, but otherwise excellent advice! +1

I have one installed on my car, and unless you want to get into it, it doesn't really make the car any harder to drive around town than normal.
