A Whipple Supercharger is one of the three types of superchargers available in the market. The twin-screw design was developed to fill the tremendous voids that the centrifugal, turbo and roots superchargers have. Though their function are all the same, its twin screw design allows it to be less susceptible to suffer from heat stroke. This helps improve its efficiency and reaction time.
Installing a Whipple Supercharger is pretty straightforward. It mounts on top of an engine intake system and most kits come with all the necessary hardware needed for the install.
The system is operated by a pulley, which is driven by the engine’s pulley drive system. The way Whipple Supercharger works is it uses twin screws to compress air and force it inside the engine.
