Achievement Unlocked: Both "fix" and void warranty at the same time on a Whipple Gen 5 3.0. Their doing a good job.

Called Whipple and the guy chuckled and said, " well yeah, that's kinda...". I just stopped him said I know...

I use Moroso A B epoxy on heads and manifolds quite often

Ordered more today as a matter of fact : )

Moroso 35560 A & B Epoxy https://a.co/d/3w6DRoV

*maybe they didn’t think there was enough meat to drill n tap it for a plug? Or maybe they forgot to and didn’t want to pull it back off lol

Well, given how many of these are out there, you would more reports would exist. I mean, if they are that hooked up with Whipple..

It blew my warranty.

 

[Under-Pressure]

Did a shop do that during the install?

 

[Blkout]

I've used JB weld on an aluminum head that had a tiny pin hole in a water jacket, never had any other issues.

Did a shop do that during the install?

Yes. They came, picked the car up, this was the fix they used.

Whipple told me that this would cause issues with my warranty.

Does it work on turbocharger turbine blades?

Whipple told me that this would cause issues with my warranty.

I can't imagine why.. 🤦‍♂️

 

[shademaker]

Oh, forgot to update. I got whipple to look at the image and send me a email stating that in and of itself, the port being glued like that would not void the warranty. But damn, that much blow by? Matches what I see with oil consumption.

Does it work on turbocharger turbine blades?

Yes, but after it sets up you have to reinforce it with spit and toilet paper

I use handy wipes, much cleaner job and refreshing as well.

 

[orrwhat]

I would remove the Whipple and drill it out big enough where it is all aluminum, thread it then install a stainless steel plug.

We discovered more stuff today. Good advice. After the dusts settles I might think of that. Here's the thing, it's not being reported by others. Think of the blowby it would take to blow that out

But, what brand, and single-ply, two-ply or three-ply?
