Whipple continues to stay at the forefront of not only supercharger technology but also automotive technology. When the 2018 Mustang GT specs came out, it flipped their world upside down, quite literally. They created an entirely new supercharger that was upside down. Sort of. We mean upside down in that, opposite of the previous 2017-older Mustang 2.9L superchargers, the intercooler now sat ON TOP of the rotors. This new 3.0L supercharger was dubbed the Gen 5. Why not Gen 1 since it’s an all new design, you ask??
When the Gen 5 3.0L was released, the 2.9L for the 2015-2017 S550 Mustangs was on Gen 3, which was already proving to be a worthy upgrade from the Gen 1 and Gen 2 setups. On top of that, Whipple already had the Gen 4 rotors in the works but they knew that they would be retro-fitting the new 3.0L for the 2018 onto the older cars since it was proving to be incredibly efficient and make some insane horsepower… hence the Gen 5 name.
Well, the time is NOW. Whipple Superchargers brings you the Gen 5 3.0L supercharger for your 2015-2017 Mustang GT! Featuring the same technology as used in the kits for the 2018+ Mustang, this kit will be sure to make some amazing power and as available in different stages to suit your needs. Add some boost to your S550 with the latest & greatest from Whipple Superchargers.
What’s new about the Gen 5 besides the intercooler and rotors switching locations? It has all new bearings, gears, rotors and housing that allow the new supercharger to spin faster, longer and safer while producing more power than any other positive displacement supercharger ever built.
The Gen 5 3.0L also features an even larger intercooler than the already massive Whipple Cooler that cooled the Ford Cobra Jets and all the record setting S550 Mustangs. Couple this with the industry's leading heat exchanger, water reservoir and intercooler pump, you get more power with lower boost levels and quicker recovery times after aggressive operation
