Whipple W100AX Bare Supercharger Head Unit 1.6L (Extended Drive) WSC-100AXB
High-Efficiency Twin-Screw Head Unit for Custom Builds
The Whipple W100AX 1.6L Bare Supercharger Head Unit is purpose-built for builders, OEM-style projects, and custom supercharger packages where ultimate throttle response, efficiency, and power density matter. This is a head unit only solutionideal for fabricators and resellers engineering complete systems around Whipples latest-generation twin-screw compressor technology.
Positive displacement screw compressors are the choice of OEM manufacturers for a reason: they deliver a broad, usable powerband with instant boost and exceptional drivability. The W100AX achieves adiabatic efficiency up to 80% and volumetric efficiency up to 99.9%, producing strong low-end torque without sacrificing top-end horsepowersomething centrifugal and turbo systems cant replicate without lag.
Compared to roots-style superchargers, the Whipple screw design maintains far higher efficiency at elevated boost levels, reducing heat and parasitic loss. Available as a complete unit or rotor assembly for custom housings, the W100AX platform supports a wide range of drive lengths, pulley options, and bypass configurations to suit virtually any applicationfrom low-boost street systems to aggressive high-boost race builds.
