Whipple supercharger

[Stone]

Hello all. So I have a question I'm hoping someone can help me with. I've got a 2006 expy xlt 4x4 with triton 5.4. Installed a whipple supercharger a few years back and love the extra power. Now I'm looking at trading it in on a 2011 version. Wondering if the whipple will go on the new expy? Whipple says they don't know because never tried. I'm wondering if anyone has tried the newer ones? Is there differences in the engines that wouldn't allow the swap? It replaces the whole intake manifold.

Any input would be great. Thanks

Is your 2006 a 3V like the 2011 is? If so, it should swap. I say this based on the 2008 S331 Saleen Series VI Twin-Screw SC from the F150 was a direct bolt to my 2014 Expy. I say direct bolt, meaning intake for intake. A plethora of other items had to be custom fabed but it was a bolt on.

Yup if it's the same 3V it should at least bolt on...Whether accessories are in the same location or whether there's hood clearance, not sure

Sorry, I wasn't getting notifications for reply's.

I believe it is a 3 valve, I had to fab several things when I installed on the 06. If the pulley doesn't line up with the serpentine belt that could be an issue. More worried about the intakes not matching.

Mpg was never very good, went from getting 11 before supercharger to 9-10 with. Wife drives it most of the time so it's city driving and she doesn't get after it like when I drive...
