There is no other kit for GT500s besides the 3.8L Whipple. I know Kong and Jokerz have porting services for the GT500 blower, and VMP and a few others make a larger lid and intercooler brick, so I assume those things work just fine on the Raptor R.I was told yesterday that Whipple is approximately 2 months away from their kit for the Raptor R. Does anyone know of any other manufacturer working on a kit?
What would Whipple kit include? Same as kit for GT500 - supercharger, intercooler, tune, Throttle Body etc?I was told yesterday that Whipple is approximately 2 months away from their kit for the Raptor R. Does anyone know of any other manufacturer working on a kit?
Definitely following and will get the kit once it's made available. So easy to get more power from this engine.W1N,
I would imagine so. Whipple has the advantage at this point because they can tune the ecm(carb cert), as support comes available from HP Tuners other options may become more popular. I would imagine Kong or Jokerz porting will be popular when custom tuning options come to market.
this extra horsepower is gonna break the truck. truck is pretty much maxed out stock.
10R80 is robust to begin with, much stronger than a 6R80. The fact that they only needed to switch to a 4 pinion output planetary to pass all durability requirements is proof of that.Agreed - they still used the 10r80 in the R, which is rated at ~590 ft lbs of torque. They *did* beef it up tho to accomodate the v8's extra torque, but I bet they did the bare minimum (probably along with the rest of the drive train). They should have just used the 10r140 from Super Duty.
