Whipple Supercharged Performance

[ProfeZZor X]

Look what you've started... Now you got me thinking about getting one for my AT4. That would work very well with my 14 wides.

Do you have a link to where you got yours from?

I got mine directly from Whipple on their website.

Thank you. It's a complete kit so you resuse your factory air box and they supply you with a silicone elbow to connect to the supercharger. You can't tune anything beyond what whipple tunes for.

Is that CARB certified with an EO? If so, I would assume that's why the tune is locked. Beauty addition!

Yes it is 50 state emissions compliant

Oh man, this is awesome. Not many people adding superchargers to the new gen SUVs.

On all +2021 SUV, you can't do any further tuning. For the Trucks, you can tune them, they have different systems.

It says silverado but the L84/L87 are used in all 3 SUVs.

Trust me... I know what I'm talking about. Feelnfree to contact HP tuners and asked them if global b on the e90 pcm for the 2021 and new suv is supported. Report back what you find out.

The SUV is excluded on their website for a reason.

Whipple does not sell an unlocked pcm for the 2021 SUV global b e90

Just for kicks I went to the Whipple page cause I could have sworn I saw something there.....And I did. There's an option for NFT (No Flash Tool) or Unlocked PCM/Flashtool. OK - at $3200 option, that's pretty unreasonable and most likely no one is going to buy it except the true die hards. That being said. no I don't know if that's accurate for the SUVs but if it isnt, it shouldn't be listed.

I'll take your word about the HP tuners. I remember reading 6 months ago or longer that they (HP Tuners) unlocked the ECM for the SUVs as well as the P/U's. Maybe it was pre-mature because it was just the Pickups and they assumed the systems between the two was the same. I can't answer that definitely cause I'm going on recall and a 3 min search of HPT's website. But if you did the legwork, I'm not disputing it.

As beautiful as the new GMC and Esky platforms are (the Burb/Hoe isn't growing on me), I think I'll stick my K2.

I have the 3200 option, otherwise you can't use the supercharger. The PCM is still locked by Trifecta and you can't change anything in the tune other than what whipple has instructed then to do.

DANG!!!! I hope someone decrypts that thing soon. That's insane.

@WICKEDOWESIX Can you talk about the Lucas Octane Booster? My kit for Gen V 2018 says in instructions not to use any octane booster. Which Lucas are you using? Is it safe for O2 sensors I assume?
Can you tell a difference when you do or don't run it? I also have wonderful 91 octane CA gas. So I would love to boost the octane a little without damaging the 02s. How much are you using?

Thank you,
Jon

They only make one Octane booster. I use 2 bottles for a full tank.

Do you have a guess what it increases the tanks octane to? Can you tell a difference running it versus not?

 

[WICKEDOWESIX]

93/94 octane. Yeah it runs stronger.

Just some performance data for those that are curious.

2022 Sport Platinum (short base) fully loaded factory curb weight 6154lbs plus the added weight of the whipple supercharger kit (~155lbs) + 220lbs driver = ~6,529lbs est

Mods:
Whipple Gen 5 3.0L Supercharger kit
Corsa Sport exhaust
91 pump gas with Lucas additive

This run was 1/4 tank of fuel, 1.5k rpm, 4wd launch. No passengers.

Yeah, that’s SO FREAKIN’ tempting, I’m truly on the fence about pulling the trigger…. I NEED more HP in my life!

Never mind. I saw my question was asked and answered already.
