How do you like your new Whipple?
it rips... the 275's couldn't handle it so I just got some 305's NT05R drag radials. It sucks because it snowed so I won't be driving it anytime soon :(

From my understanding most of the issues are for the phase 2 with the 72 lb injectors. Just an FYI for readers

Did you do your install and what wheels did you use for the NT05R tires?

Had a friend who owns a shop install it for me. He cut me a good deal.

I put the tires on 6GR 350r replica wheels

19x10/11

This is the photo I took last night when I mounted them, ran out of daylight and it started snowing. Still need to clean it up and take better pics. You can hardly tell what they look like

I'm still having fuel trim issues. No CEL, replaced plugs, removed cats ( thought maybe melted/clogged ). May try replacing O2, MAF and Purge Valve.

I'm going to recheck my plugs this weekend. I used a wheel gauge to check gap, and the adjusting tool to open/close the tip so as not to damage the nodule. Gonna check them with a feeler gauge.

Wait for the tune update before you waste more money.

I agree and realize how frustrating it can be for those who have issues here, but Whipple is on this, and they are about to release the fix to all at the same time. Whipple has always come through for their customers in my experience.

How far are your fuel trims off,if they were off and u did a repair the best thing to.do is a kam reset as the ltft take some time to adjust.The cell won't come on unless your ltft hit + or - 25.After doing a kam reset I would drive the car for 20 miles them look at trims again.Also after doing a fuel system Jon had to redo my tune because my.fuel trims were setting off my cel light.I also had a vacuum leak at my regualtor.

Which makes me wonder what it will do with a better injector like a 1050X...
