Embark on the journey of crafting your very own supercharger kits for distribution, and there's no better heart for your package than the Whipple Twin Screw Compressor. Preferred by OEM manufacturers for its unparalleled throttle response and the drivability akin to a large displacement engine, it's the ultimate choice for aftermarket builds.
When designing a supercharger system for consumer applications, it's essential to offer a broad power band coupled with towering peak horsepower – a feat only achievable with a screw compressor. Thanks to its superior adiabatic efficiency (up to 80%) and volumetric efficiency (up to 99.9%), the Whipple screw compressor stands as the zenith of the latest generation of durable and reliable power boosters, suitable for both modest and intense boost applications.
As a complete unit or a standalone "rotor assembly" for custom housing integrations, the screw compressor is unmatched. It’s the sole supercharger that marries the benefits of positive displacement for robust low-end torque with high-end efficiency for maximum horsepower. This distinct advantage is exclusive to the Whipple Twin Screw Compressor, setting it apart from all others on the market.
While centrifugal superchargers and turbos struggle with lag during critical moments like shifting, throttle transitions, and initial acceleration, and while Roots-type superchargers falter in efficiency at higher boost levels, Whipple's screw compressors excel across the spectrum. With an array of sizes from 100 to 510 cubic inches and a diverse selection of drive lengths, pulley combinations, and bypass valves, Whipple Superchargers ensures a fit for every application, defining the pinnacle of supercharging technology.
