So my car was at Whipple the past week and I just picked it up today after getting some much needed Whipple goodies on the car. I have one of the first Whipple kits before there were stages and still had the open "air box" as many of you know. I had them install the enclosed air box with [MENTION=16819]Roh92cp[/MENTION] sound tube mod and the whine is insane! It was also time I got on the OPG/TS train and had them install the TSS ones. I only had the ATI dampener so it was much needed. I had a leak in the crank seal, which I am assuming was from when it was previously opened to install the ATI, but Will took care of that for me as well.

I also had them install the High flow intercooler pump and new IC tank. Couple that with their new heat exchanger and I am a happy customer. On the drive home today in 90 degree heat and LA traffic my temps were not bad at all. Highest I hit was 210 CHT and 125 IAT. My temps were at 184-198 while cruising and IAT was about 4 degrees above ambient the whole time. Before this I was about 10-15 degrees higher than ambient while cruising.

I also just made the switch to Aces IV and they did some testing with it for me while it was there. I will make the results public soon. All in all I am very pleased and just wanted to share some of this with you guys.

Very nice. Anxiously awaiting the Aces results. I mentioned this stuff on a Boss 302 forum since I heard good things about it here. Only one guy had experience with it, and he wasn't impressed:

That ACES IV stuff is absolute junk. I had read about it and was looking for something better than TORCO, called the owner up, he explained all kinds of stuff and sounded convincing. I couldn't understand half of what he was telling me. Big words and mumbo jumbo. I ordered some, $100 for a little bottle. Added the recommended amount. Good thing for knock sensors, the car pulled 4 degrees timing. GARBAGE. Added more, same result. Went back to TORCO! Be aware of the ACES stuff. Just my results boys and girls.

I switched to BND's Quantum Blue oil as well so I am curious to see if it's as good as advertised. Oil should look the same at 10k as it does now. It should be a few weeks before I have concrete results from the Aces testing. Still have some more testing to do and I will be out of town so slow going. I will definitely let everyone know, especially since the auto and manual Whipple tunes are different so the results will be different.

Thanks gents. So the heat exchangers are black for production, although I got one of the few bare aluminum ones, which are slightly different and slightly more money and had them powder coat it. I also requested they put "Whipple" in red on the bottom. Maybe I started a trend, who knows. :shrug:
