Whipple Mega Cooler

[Whipple SC]

Pressure drop data?

Data logs from SCT X4, no cal changes, although there are huge spikes in the factory curve. Note that our calculations show less than 1.5psi drop at 550HP

Wow... if ive ever seen a cash grab in the aftermarket this has got to be one of the worst. The end tank design is so squared off and tall that even if it has internal diverters to guide airflow upward its a huge waste of material. Input and outlet of this design also forces aftermarket charge pipes and to top it off the amount of air flow it blocks to the rad if anything hinders engine cooling. Just no..

This was developed for one of our very large partners. It was tested in Ford's wind tunnel and in no way varied engine cooling. The tanks do not require diverters with the large surface area and tapered tank. We tested with and without, it was no help.

This was not a cash grab, I think that's absolutely a slap in the face. This was developed for one of our partners, the program still hasn't taken off, therefore we are marketing ourselves. We invested in new fin type, not using Chinese off the shelf fin like many do. We CFD tested, tooled for new stamping and then testing in the real world with real results. We are also the only one that has a 50-state legal EO for our Stage 1, which you may not know, cost money.

It's only 17 inches tall based on their spec sheet. 20x17.1x3. Literally only .1 inches taller than the levels intercooler (Strange that they have the kit size half an inch larger). I think their photos are just done in a way to make it look taller/bigger than it actually is. In reality all race intercoolers have most of their cooling done towards the bottom of the intercooler.
Levels height:

vs Whipple height:

To be honest they are VERY similar.

It does note that it comes with the needed "adapters", so yes it'll need adapters for them to fit.

We didn't purposely make it .1" bigger, that's just where it ended up in our design. We feel confident our designed fin on the cold and hot side is superior to others, although this will be a small variance when surface area is similar.

But, our package is 50-state legal which means the guys in CA don't have to worry about being illegal and or taking the parts off to smog car.

Haha I didn't mean it in a bad way towards you guys. He said it looked 24-30 inches tall, when it's not even close to that lol.

Just a suggestion [MENTION=13288]Whipple SC[/MENTION], you may want to clarify some of that in the first post. Will make new readers catch on to those questions and not have to ask them over and over.

CFD graph would show a lot about whats going on for equal distribution of airflow and would definately love to see it because the squared nature of the end tanks and inlet/outlet placement baffles me. If you guys managed to equal out the flow through a stamped tank design vs a die cast then i would be amazed, lots of money saved and put use to the full core. Engineering is not my speciality but manufacturing and machining is. Didnt mean to come off as rude but i can be blunt when i type so i apologize.
