Well, didn't happen today. Whipple sent couple parts wrong，short of bolt in the package really not lucky on this one .... should have gone with Roush maybe, lol

Really sorry to hear the hiccups you're experiencing.
But you'll be very happy at the end.

Went to the shop snapped some photos. They are doing a great job relocating coolant pump, raising HE in order to keep my winch. But said they will have to move the whole body backward a bit to accommodates the charger.. did anybody have to do this?

I made a stupid mistake by sending the wrong computer code to JDM I think I was looking at a sample photo then just wrote that number on the tune paper Good thing is, JimIII said that tune is still gonna work for me. So hopefully, we will have it up and running problem free tomorrow!

Who is doing the work for you? I see you are in my backyard!

Thank you. The happiness better be strong for this much trouble and waiting experienced... assuming tune is good and no more hiccups on whipple, it will be another 4~5 days to know cause the shop will be closed for vocation starting tonight.

I'm with MTF when you get your Whipple in and working correctly you'll be very happy. I have a 2013 and my blower is very tight but like MTF I can fit my fingers on top and around both sides with no rubbing.


I wouldn't begin to try something like this on my own. "JDM" has installed so many of these they could probably do it blind folded their attention to detail and knowledge is second to none.

Let us know how you make out

Shop received the parts from whipple minute before they close hope to get it up and running tomorrow!!!!!!

Corsa sport exhaust arrived today, build quality is GOOD!

You are joking, I hope! Lol

Totally not joking. They massage the firewall back to fit the big Whipples and KB blowers. Some guys do nicer stuff with patch pannels and such, but some don't.

It's up and running! finally!! JDM tune still works although I messed up computer code. Put about 50kms drove back home, smooth and powerful, but damn the blower is noisy!

Corsa sport, autometer air/fuel wide band and boost/vac gauges are going in next week, then I am done for a loooooooooooong time, wife said

So did you have to move the cab back?

So did you have to move the cab back?

Moved back a tiny bit.. not much to move at all according to the install shop, but seems good enough.

For later 2014 trucks owner, don't bother moving the cab, just smash the firewall
