Whipple-charge your ‘07+ GM SUV now

Filed under: American — Evan @ 8:38 pm October 26, 2009

After keeping us waiting for a couple years, Whipple Industries has recently unveiled their new line of twin-screw superchargers for the GMT900 platform trucks and SUVs. The superchargers cover all motors from the base truck 4.8L up to the Cadillac/GMC 6.2L and can provide a claimed 85% increase in horsepower. Whipple states a 25% loss through drivetrain components which gives the 5.3L Tahoe that they tested an estimated 586 crank horsepower (an 83% increase). Does that mean that a 6.2L Escalade or Denali would be pushing 745 crank hp?! If so, this forced-induction nut will start saving his pennies for one! Check out the video below for some of that sweet blower whine that we all love.
