Working with a local tuner (tunetimeperformance.com) to install a Whipple supercharger on my 2019 Ram. So far the guys are very professional and helpful. Matt (from TTP) has built some pretty wild rides including a low 9 second Trackhawk. If you are in the area I highly recommend you reach out to them for all your go-fast needs. :)

My project started out with a simple supercharger install and had grown into a complete engine build. Excited the project is finally underway after weeks of planning and obtaining parts. Mods are in signature. More to come!

Matt does good work! He did my 2008 Trailblazer SS and really woke it up. Wish I still had that truck.

Looks like I may have to change the name of this thread and remove 'Whipple'. They have been giving us the run around and have missed multiple promise ship dates. Note - we ordered the SC right after Thanksgiving so this is going on for some time. At this point we are looking at different superchargers.

Will keep you posted.

Lemme know how it goes, curious about them as I've heard mixed things about their rep (Ttp)

Remember meeting Matt at Cafe 360 a few years ago around Xmas, had/had 800+whp CTS-V on drags if I remember correctly

Matt is an great guy and very easy to deal with. I would highly recommend them.

So motor is almost together. LOL. Found more rings (brand new) that were not up to his liking and needed to be replaced. Blower is expected to get here from Australia Friday. Motor should be in the truck waiting for blower. He gave me an estimated delivery date of Friday 2/7 but that is if things go smooth. Give it a week or 2 to get some miles on it and then back to him for final pulley/tune. Going with 2 tunes now: 1 for fun/track and 1 for tow. This should allow us to achieve some nice numbers. Stay tuned!

Can't wait for the results

Btw, where do you go for service, as you're most likely tuned and they're gonna void the warranty

Bringing my truck there next Saturday

Anything drive-train will likely not get covered. LOL.

Radio, door switches, etc. should still be covered. Cross that bridge when/if it I have an issue. :)

Gotcha

I'm all aftermarket anyway. Doesn't change the price of an oil change anyway

Either way, it'll be worth it

Update: All major parts are back together. Break in oil is in. Ready for startup this morning. wow.....it has been a long road

intake is setup temporarily for break in. we didnt have the snout to fit a hellcat throttle body so that will be changed out when we do final tune.

can't wait to hear what this beast sounds like.
