Default 598 CI - what whipplecharger?

I built my 598 to install an M4 Procharger. BUT I hate the way they look.
I am thinking on installing a Whipple charger instead.
This engine with the M4 produces 1400 HP. Is there a Whipple that will do 1200 HP?
8.6 to 1 compression. Holley sequential port EFI.
I was also thinking on going with the CNP ignition - is it worth it.

I believe the 4.5L is one of the newer versions, with stronger parts, larger bearings, upgraded snout, etc. Capable of 1200+

I love prochargers though, but agree they are hard to rig and make look good.

My Baja had the intercoolers hidden under the rear bench, m3sc 500efi, really looked nice.

What about using a Whipple port injected intercooled manifold with a plenium on top! Will look SICK!

Depending on room you could mount them reverse centered on the front, or on a twin engine mount them both on the outside or towards the center.

CNP is just badazz! Might as well why stop now! LOL!

Just a thought, No one cares what the supercharger looks like if you reach the finish line first. Pay a model to ride around topless if you're worried about "looks"

My vote is for the 4.5 as well. I've used the 4.5, 5. and 8.3. The 4.5 will make that power no problem, it's super efficient, and lower profile. [ATTACH=CONFIG]565514[/ATTACH]

When they are mounted on the front of the engine is that a reverse rotation Procharger.
Can the discharge pipe be rotated to blow downward?
