Whipple W245AX 4.0L Bare Supercharger Head Unit - Extended Drive Ready

WHIPPLE W245AX 4.0L
BARE SUPERCHARGER HEAD UNIT

The Whipple W245AX 4.0L Bare Supercharger Head Unit is designed for builders developing custom supercharger systems, specialty packages, and application-specific forced-induction setups. This is the WSC-245AXB 4.0L supercharger head unit only, available in multiple finishes with an extended-drive-ready configuration.

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 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 W245AX compressor is part of Whipple's broad screw-compressor lineup, giving builders a large 4.0L option for custom systems where airflow demand, packaging, 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.

Whipple twin-screw technology combines the low-end torque benefits of a positive-displacement design with the efficiency needed for strong top-end horsepower potential. The W245AX platform is built for durability, dependable performance, and the flexibility needed by custom system builders working across vehicle, marine, and specialty applications.

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.
