I have a 2016 GT PP and just finished a 30 hour journey adding a Whipple Stage 2 kit to my Mustang.
I went out for some hot-rodding today.
Dear god. This thing is rip your face off fast.
Love it. GREAT JOB WHIPPLE!
2 Issues remain.
1- I have a bit of belt walk. I contacted Dennis at Whipple and he asked me to switch 2 of the idler pulleys. I did that and I rechecked the torque for all three. It made no difference.
Could it be the tension? Which is more likely to cause this? Too tight or not tight enough?
All three steel idler belts have a little bit of play. They look like high quality Canadian bearings so its hard to imagine all three of them being out of spec.
2- There seems to be a bit of hesitation as I push the pedal far enough to start getting into boost around 2800. Once the power comes on though it feels great.
Could this be related to my first question? In my overthinking I thought, what if somehow the belt isnt tight enough so it slips cause a delay in the SC to spool? Dont laugh...
I am using the standard whipple tune straight from whipple. I loaded via the flare tool without issue. No codes.
Ideas?
