Depends on the shape of the stock caliper but some caliper covers actually look pretty real while others look like garbage. The rotor diameter is what gives it away usually though…small rotor with a huge caliper cover.

Actually I think those are caliper covers. https://www.ebay.com/itm/144837921214?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=pcr0ia_0t4e&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=RuOMmLpWSaC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Doubtful since the first 23s are being delivered and for the vast majority of folks it took about 4-6k miles to start.

I did some more research over on the hellcat forum. Quite a few guys ran the hellion compound boost setup but eventually ditched the blower altogether and just ran twins. They picked up about 100-150whp by ditching the blower and some guys just gutted the stock blower internals so they could use...

The platform has been around for 8 years. The engine setup is about as simple as they come for an FI motor. The $100k price tag really has nothing to do with the complexity of the truck. I would say it’s probably the easiest vehicle I have worked on and despite being one of those engineers I...

Actually multiple shops have already fabbed versions of the intake for the Whipple including Wragth, Ripa and I believe Satera. I can’t imagine how much they would shake their head looking at a customers twin turbo TRX with completely fab work and not a “bolt on” kit. I have always thought...

Only difference is intake. Folks have been fabbing their own. Already quite a few Whipple 3.0 TRXs

Agreed on the road it should not hurt. I have ridden in a TRX with one off-road and the ride was noticeably harsher. Good mod if the truck will be a pavement princess.

You planning on staying on stock rubber or a different set of 35s?

Adding a rear sway bar kit to a baja truck isn’t very typical. When the hellwig first came out some folks on the forum bought them and then ended up selling them shortly after. It tightens up the rear end a little bit for cornering on the street but roughens the ride and hurts handling on...

That logic works for turbos and centrifugal blowers but not PD or twin screws. No downside to adding CFM without upping boost.

While I wish the power brokers were a sign of a definitively good dealer I can state that the Superstition Springs CDJR in Arizona listed on there is garbage. There are two issues that keep coming up concerning vehicle maintenance and warranty work. The first is quality / skill which perhaps...

Hellion makes a good product. I have been impressed with their kits on the mustangs on Camaros. The video shows them running oiling on the turbos and given their experience I would expect them to get it right the first time (not run into drainage issues). Agreed it also looks like they are...

Which dealership? Tempe CDJR is the only one in the valley I have found satisfactory but if they are doing this to you then my days of going to a dealership might be over.

I would have to look at the Whipple 3.0 compressor map in detail and compare to the IHI stock blower map and turbos combined. Turbochargers are pretty much always more efficient at compressing air than a roots supercharger but the difference is minimized by sizing the blower large enough that...

Compressor map efficiency (high efficiency turbos in effect creating already charged air for the supercharger inlet so the compression ratio at the blower is lower and generates less heat there). Basically you avoid turning the blower into a hairdryer by pre-charging the incoming air. Different...

Yup. It’s the helion kit. Guessing we will see it hit market soon.

I did QTP on my V but ended up doing weld on hookers this time. Curious to see how they hold up.

Yes and equally more torque. Not something I would do if I wasn’t also modding but add an upper pulley to the injectors and tune and you end up with close to 200hp gain on e85.
