Whipple questions: warranty claims, stage 1/2

[sloww5ohh]

Hey guys, going to be getting a whipple soon. Oil pump gears as well as CS.
-
On fence with stage 1 or 2. I know stage 1 has the warranty. But how has the process with whipple been to actually get them to honour claims made for the warranty? I know stage 2 makes more power and it’s not covered unfortunately. I want this car to live long. I don’t drive stupid and I baby the car. I’d hate to get stage 1 wishing I got the 2 only to have an issue that whipple doesn’t cover with the warranty.
cheers

i have not worked with Whipple, but from what a co-worker of mine who has has said, they are alright to deal with. i will ask him on Monday and report back. my dealer has installed 3 or 4 Ford Performance Whipple kits and have heard no issues about them, plus you really have to outright abuse these engines for them to start having problems. you are also able to upgrade from Stage 1 to 2 at a later date, costing $1700 for a new throttle body, intake tube, and tune file

If they find out you did OPG they could void your stage 1 warranty. Go stage 2, the tune is much better.

Also the first thing I would be worried about is the transmission and they only cover $2,000 towards that repair

Ok that’s reassuring to hear. You planning boost down the line?

Opg would void it? Seriously?

If you go stage 2, change out your stock cats. They will not survive
