Whipple Stage 1 Gen 6x 3.0L Supercharger Kit (20212023 F-150 5.0L) WK-2316-STG1-30
Overview
The Whipple Stage 1 Gen 6x 3.0L Supercharger Kit for the 20212023 Ford F-150 5.0L sets a new benchmark for bolt-on truck performance. Built around Whipples latest Gen 6x W185RF twin-screw supercharger, this system delivers massive torque, instant throttle response, and OEM-level drivabilitywhile remaining CARB certified and 50-state legal.
The Gen 6x platform features an all-new housing, inlet, and pulley design engineered specifically for the 20212023 F-150. A massive Crusher 150mm inlet and Whipples exclusive 3x4 rotor combination dramatically increase airflow capacity while reducing discharge temperatures. The inverted supercharger layout nests the unit deep in the valley, optimizing airflow and packaging under the factory hood with no cutting or grinding required.
Thermal control is handled by Whipples patented dual-core, dual-pass intercooler system, which routes air through each intercooler twice for nearly double the effective cooling area compared to conventional designs. Paired with the largest dual-pass heat exchanger on the market and a high-flow intercooler pump, intake air temperatures stay consistent under heavy load, towing, or aggressive driving.
Power is managed by Whipples advanced PCM calibration delivered through the included Whipple Tomahawk V2 flash tool. This system recalibrates fuel, spark, torque management, throttle control, and the 10-speed transmission while retaining factory drive modes, towing functionality, and daily-driver manners. The result is over 725 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque on 91+ octane fuel with unmatched reliability.
