496 Mag/HO Goodies
 
I just wanted to let everybody know that we are very close to releasing our 496 upgrade packages.

We have a naturally aspirated performance calibration with a new K&N style flame arrestor which makes approx. 445hp, then we have a package setup with CMI exhaust, filter, performance cal that makes approx. 470 hp, then we have a new camshaft, cal, CMI and filter that makes 525hp. Of course we then have a supercharger system that makes approx. 625hp, we have not finished the SC with CMI's yet, that is being tested.

We can also just modify the rev limiters or make changes to those who have unique applications such as aftermarket exhaust systems. We have exclusive rights to recalibrate the factory 555 ECUs and you should never do any mods to the stock motors without proper ECU recalibration, no matter what anybody tells you!!

Thanks,
Dustin Whipple

Cool,

I would say that with all the 496's out there that this will be a HOT item.

Any pictures available showing what the new 500 EFI system look like? I hope I'm right here, but isn't the picture on the web site the old style?

Thanks
Mark

What's included with the 445hp deal. Do I have to install an adjustable fuel pressure regulator and/or high flow injectors?

Hopefully this will work. I think this is a pic of the new system for the HP500EFI..

That 500 efi is sweet!!!!! Is that a new whipple system from Dustin or is it a system that has been around for awhile? Just wondering, it would look good on the Eliminator:D :D

YES DUSTIN IF IT WORKS AS GOOD AS THE KITS WE'VE USED IT WILL BE A TERROR !!!! :D :D

Dustin...what is your take on how the new hyperutectic (sp?) pistons will hold up with the new supercharger system?

Also, how do we get a hold of the new price list for the above mentioned mods?

Just curious how were able to get the "exclusive rights" to recalibrate the factory 555 ECU? Who owns the code to the 555? Is it Merc or is it a 3rd party?

Do you have prices for the 3 stages and the supercharger?
