Description
WHIPPLE W100AX 1.6L
BARE SUPERCHARGER HEAD UNIT
The Whipple W100AX 1.6L Bare Supercharger Head Unit is designed for builders developing custom supercharger systems, specialty packages, and application-specific forced-induction setups. This head unit gives experienced fabricators and system designers access to Whipple twin-screw compressor technology without packaging it as a complete vehicle-specific kit.
Positive-displacement twin-screw superchargers are valued for instant throttle response, broad torque delivery, and strong power potential across the RPM range. Unlike centrifugal and turbocharger systems that can depend heavily on RPM or exhaust energy to build boost, the Whipple screw compressor is designed to deliver immediate airflow response when the throttle is opened.
The W100AX compressor is part of Whipple's broad screw-compressor lineup, giving builders a compact 1.6L option for custom systems where packaging, airflow, drive configuration, and power goals must be engineered around the application. Whipple screw compressors are designed for both low-boost and high-boost applications when the complete system is properly matched.
The original W100AX platform is known for high efficiency, durability, and dependable performance in properly designed supercharger systems. Whipple twin-screw technology offers the low-end torque benefits of a positive-displacement design while maintaining the efficiency needed for strong top-end horsepower potential.
Since 1987, Whipple Superchargers has been a leader in twin-screw supercharging technology for enthusiasts, builders, and manufacturers who demand more airflow, more efficiency, and more power from their combination. Whipple supercharger systems and components are designed, manufactured, and assembled at Whipple's facility in Fresno, California.
