Whipple Stage 1 Gen 6 Supercharger Kit 3.0L (20182020 F-150 5.0L) WK-2315-STG1-30
Gen 6 3.0L Whipple Power for the 5.0L F-150
The Whipple Stage 1 Supercharger Kit featuring the Gen 6 W185RF 3.0L twin-screw supercharger is the most advanced, emissions-legal bolt-on power upgrade available for the 20182020 Ford F-150 5.0L. Engineered for factory-level drivability with massive gains, this system delivers exceptional torque and horsepower while retaining daily-driver manners and OEM functionality.
At the heart of the system is Whipples latest Gen 6 3.0L twin-screw design, now featuring updated G6 rotors and a refined housing for improved efficiency and airflow. The inverted supercharger nests cleanly in the engine valley, routing air through Whipples patented dual-core, dual-pass intercooler system. Unlike traditional designs, Whipples layout passes air through each intercooler twice, delivering industry-leading thermal efficiency.
On premium fuel, the Stage 1 system produces up to 725 horsepower and 625 lb-ft of torque at the flywheel. A massive heat exchanger and high-flow intercooler pump maintain consistent intake air temperatures under load, while Whipples proprietary PCM calibration ensures reliable performance across all drive modesincluding tow, eco, sport, and off-road.
Designed as a true bolt-on, this kit installs without cutting or grinding and includes Whipples HP Tuners RDT OBDII flash tool for calibration loading, diagnostics, data logging, and vehicle configuration. The result is instant boost, a flat torque curve, and unmatched drivability from tip-in to redline.
