Supercharger done, backfiring? UPDATE- She's Blown

Nathan how rich is it getting when you get into boost? Mine will go up to 11.2~11.8 when boosting.

Im not totally sure, Ive only really gotten on it a few times and keep forgetting to check the AFR when I do it. I think the gauge goes into the yellow/rich side? I can check tomorrow. I think my gas mileage has gone down though. Oh well.

Oh yeah mpg's are gonna suck for a while.

mine got 11mpg if you drove nice around town, and before it had a supercharger.... 11mpg.

So far.... This thread sucks!

Then I'd say you did good!
Added power + same MPG = SCORE!!!!

when i first got the truck best it could do was 8, exhaust and a tune were huge in getting the numbers up.

Well I was planning on making a thread soon following the build and after I get a couple more pics of everything all buttoned up, but I have this at the moment.

Looks like it fits right in!!
Any clearance issues?

How'd you ever find one? I tried searching eBay for Whipple and Magnacharger, but all that comes up is stuff for Mustangs.

I'm not familiar with the BBC intakes, but is that a stock intake or did it come with the Whipple?
