Me and one of the other techs both traded in our 14 trucks for 17s, and decided since Ram isn't making a SRT or hellcat 1500 anytime soon, that we were gonna say screw it and make our own. Ordered two whipple kits last week.

Please let us know how it goes and all the details. I'm very interested in doing the same thing to my truck!!

I will be sure to start a thread once it gets going and answer any questions anyone has.

****** thing is the kits are about 6 weeks out before we will get them.

Why trade up to 2017?

We had pretty good deals going on at my dealer at the time. I was going to wait till the 5th gen trucks came out but that's not till late 2018, and I'm not buying the first model year of a new gen truck. So it would be closer to 2019-2020 by the time I would get one. By that time the truck would be 6 years old with no warranty. It's worth more now with full warranty, and I ended up getting more for it then I owed, so for me it made sense.

Just talked to my tech. I'm seriously thinking about dropping the hammer and ordering the kit. He called Whipple and they said 6-7 weeks to build and ship. And my tuner said bring it on, he's done a bunch of these on other vehicles.

I'd much rather go this route than the E-Force. More power, future capability, and that heavenly Whipple whine.
