Whipple vs. Procharger
I currently have a 502 (509) Dart block engine with a 250 blower. I have 605hp at 5500rpm with 7 lbs of boost. No intercooler because there is no room in my engine compartment. I want at least 850hp. I need something low profile so I don't have to cut my engine hatch. The Whipple Quad cost almost twice as much as the procharger kit with intercooler. Should I go with whipple or procharger? Or, should I modify my motor and keep the 250 blower?

change your Heads to Dart Pro 1 CNC 335....with a 509 those heads and the right cam and 8lbs boost... 800hp+ would be no problem...if your choosing a blower the Whipple is the best choice.. easy to program vs the procharger(pain in the A**) and the benifits of adding a intercooler in you curent engine compartment ...4.0L whipple w/MOAC would be the right choice

How is a Whipple any easier to program then a procharger? What EFI control system do they come with? With the procharger you wouldn't need to spend the money on the heads to make 800+HP and you could do a simple blow thru set up if you didn't want the extra cost of an EFI system.
