I ordered new ones online, believe Amazon lol. That way the new bolts only had treads coming out of the bolt holes from the Blower. If I’d shaven them down it’d still hit the end of the tread on the bolts.

Yeah, the inside bolts are recessed so it’s almost impossible to tell they’re bottoming out, I’m assuming the treads were starting to go into the bolt shoulder where the treads end and since the torque that’s needed isn’t crazy high it felt like they tightened. However looking at the outside...

I did, the bolts that mate the blower unit to the intake ports were ever so slightly too long, unsure as to why since I measured the bolts and they were the correct length as described by the installation manual provided by Whipple. It would only cause the issue to arise as the engine and...

Negative on the bolts causing an intake leak lol may just have to take the blower off and check mating surfaces and lower gaskets. Doubt they’re leaking but at this point it’s about the only thing intake wise I haven’t retouched. Also a negative on the casting stands, seems the newer 5 bolt...

Went back this AM and messing with the injectors I noticed what you were saying. The 4 outside bolts WERE bottomed out. I took out the Injectors rails cause i was messing with something else and found that. When I put everything back in this afternoon I’ll update if that was causing the issue...

We’re you ever able to find replacement Gaskets for it? I’m currently in the same dilemma

I believe I came up on your post elsewhere on the forum, I was trying to find it again see if you by chance knew your trims after it warmed up and idled for a bit. I think you’re the only one I’ve seen post about this issue so I’d say it’s pretty rare. I’ll see if I can get a borescope down...

Gasket seems to be good & not leaking for now. Have read the gasket whipple provides isn’t very good and people will replace it with something else. Will probably look into that.

Yes, Also I work at a dealer & we got another 5.0 on the lot we tried swapping MAFs to rule out of it was failing. Same readings

I know when I saw it it didn’t make sense to me seeing the car idle as good as it is. Fuel Pressure is good (~70ish psi) I’ve eliminated the PCV reroutes into the intake and have plugs for now just till I find what’s causing this. Valve covers are vented into the atmosphere for now. Verified...

I have not yet, however AFRs 14 and also it’s correcting both side banks. I was thinking about the headers/02s I remember I had a leak around a year ago and it was the header itself (Corsa warrantied it) also replaced the gasket and made sure there wasn’t a leak then, but again that was a year...

Recent Whipple install has been one headache after another between initial package delivery being delayed, to FexEx completely trashing the 1st blower unit and needing to get another blower shipped out, to missing parts and having to delay install to now having a potential ‘intake leak’ I cannot...

Hi Devirus, Were you able to get yours working like factory? I saw that you're also located in the Raleigh NC area and I'm trying to get some assistance getting mine working on a 2019 GT non-AE. I'm Lund tuned I asked them if they unlocked it on their tune and they told me they did, but I have...
