Nice TQ curve there, but I'm also really liking the Edelbrock. Good numbers there...and I'm kind of a fanboy. Used to have a bunch of their stuff on my old Ranchero. Their carbs run fantastic right out of the box.

Morning Brando! I like the Edelbrock's numbers as well but there is something about the way it looks that turns me off. I still have 3 months to decide.

True, it does look like a pizza box. I hate the engine covers that come with it. I'd have to fab up something cool looking if I got it.

EDIT: The E-Force also make 548rwhp with LTH's and a tune. RWHP!

True but this whipple is showing 538RWHP on an L99 that is bone stock which would put me over 550RWHP considering I have exhaust, CAI and shorties already.

Boost?

and the big difference is where they make power.... Maggie and Eforce make it in the middle and get you more torque.

Whipple and KB make it more at the top with less torque....

But if you expect to build a BIG HP (1000+) car... the whipple or KB is the way to go.

Really? The Whipple Tq curve looked okay to me. I thought it was just the centrifugal guys like Vortech and Procharger that had to worry about low torque at low rpms

9psi I believe and there is a link on the page before this that takes you to their dyno and you can see their curve.
