The Whipple 175ax cost me around $2600 US plus shipping and GST etc. That was including the 1"drive snout and 3.5" cobra pulley. I have not narrowed any cost down for the rest of the parts but will post those prices on my site around June. If you want to be in on a waiting list to be notified of updates and availibility them please send an e-mail to info@corneltechweb.com with your full name. This is the way I am keeping track of future customers.
Thanks again for the interest!

I'm expecting around 15-16 psi with the 3.5" pulley and then go to a 3.25" for 18-20psi with the 175ax.

Is there anyway to incorporate an intercooler or does it use the same air to liquid as the Mustangs?
Also what static cr are you running?

I have spent many hours thinking of ways to incorporate an intercooler but did not like any of the ideas. There is very little room, would restrict flow and be so small it would provide poor cooling at full boost. I have had great luck with the 50/50 water/meth injection ahead of the SC. I am still always thinking about an intercooler and ways to fit it; but for now this is the only reasonable configuration I can figure. My build engine is ~8.6:1.

What kind of compression and pully size(and supercharger, for that matter) would you go with to do an 8-10 psi build?

I would expect 9-9.5max cr .with a Whipple 140AX and 3.5" pulley. It should be around 10psi. If it ends up higher than what you want then either a smaller lower or a larger upper might be used, however my 3.625" upper pully was really close to to the hood . ~1/4"-3/8"max with no liner. If you have room uder the hood then the best would be to change the upper! You can also use a ball peen hammer to make room LOL. Ok Kidding!

Ok... this thread has got me interested again in supercharging my T/A.

I'll be watching the progress, waiting for a final product and results. I'm stoked about the job you are doing!

Those manifolds look amazing! Will you be selling them to work with a whipple other than the 175? Did you order your whipple right from whipple, or was there a dealer here in canada you ordered through? Ill be starting my motor build for next winter so im trying to price and source everything.

The manifold will fit both the 175ax and the 140ax. I bought the SC direct from Whipple!

The 175ax can deliver up to 1720 cfm!!! Check out he chart on Whipple site here!
http://www.whipplesuperchargers.com/...sp?ProdID=1162
To answer the question it will be plenty for a 383! A Procharger P1SC delivers about 900 cfm as tested: http://www.superchargersonline.com/i...1sc_report.pdf
Hope this helps!
