This kit is not intended for DTS applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt around Whipple twin-screw supercharger technology, this system is designed to deliver instant boost response, strong low-speed torque, faster planing, improved cruising performance, and increased top-end power. Unlike power adders that need RPM before they become effective, the Whipple twin-screw design can generate boost quickly with throttle input, giving the 496\/8.1L Magnum platform a broader and more responsive power curve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe system is designed around approximately 5-6 psi of intercooled boost and is listed to increase power by nearly 50% in supported applications. Whipple includes PCM recalibration to support proper engine management, along with fuel system and sensor upgrades required for the supercharged setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit includes a 3.3L twin-screw supercharger, massive oversized twin-bore throttle body, PCM recalibration, 2-bar MAP sensor, high-flow fuel injectors, Aeromotive fuel pump, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, fuel cooler, fuel filter, fuel line kit, plug-and-play wiring harness, billet 10-rib adjustable belt system, and billet pulleys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eKey Features\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.3L Whipple twin-screw supercharger kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for compatible 2001-2010 Mercury Marine 496\/8.1L Magnum Base and HO applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFor SmartCraft PCM555 engines with standard throttle cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot for DTS applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApproximately 5-6 psi of intercooled boost\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eListed power increase of nearly 50% in supported applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInstant boost response with strong low-RPM torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePCM recalibration included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-bar MAP sensor included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-flow fuel injectors included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAeromotive fuel pump and adjustable regulator included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFuel cooler, fuel filter, and fuel line kit included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMassive oversized twin-bore throttle body\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBillet 10-rib adjustable belt system\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBillet pulleys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug-and-play wiring harness with no cutting or splicing required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Verify engine model, model year, SmartCraft PCM555 compatibility, throttle control type, DTS\/non-DTS configuration, fuel system requirements, boost configuration, cooling system condition, available engine-compartment clearance, and complete installation requirements before ordering.
