Default Whipple Supercharged 2010 Suburban

Hello All. Just finished doing some updates to my Suburban. Whipple Supercharger, Eibach springs and sway bars. Working on the stereo system.

Welcome to the forum.

Any performance figures yet? Dyno numbers, mpg, etc.

How do the new sway bar diameters compare to originals?

And what's the big honkin' blue cable across the top of the firewall for?

I'm getting around 14.5 mpg. Going to take it and tune it on the dyno sometime before the end of the year. It's running the tune from Whipple right now, which was vastly improved over running it without but it's pretty rich under boost. The new sway bar for the front is substantially bigger the rear is only slightly. I believe the steel is a hardened steel and the bushings are better.

The blue cable was the 4ga that supplied the stereo system I was running. It's now been pulled out and a 0ga in conduit is now run underneath for the new system going in. Everything is dressier. I'll put up new pics when it's further along.

Nice gear but you may consider an original oxi-granule with respect to your connections. Clearly a better choice in this format. (use the original not the condensed/slim).

Can you measure the diameter as the front one looks smaller than stock?

The stock one was about 1 3/8" the Eibach is about 1 5/8" and a stiffer grade steel.
