They are THE ones to go to for Whipples.

They would have to be the most professional team in the Commodore business.

Peter Starr is the consumate professional.

Thanks Bass, I wanted to chat with someone who knows about the Whipple chargers, as this looks like the only solution at the moment for our boat. I take it Starr didn't build the Monaro they just know alot about whipples?

[meshmesh]

Aaaahh, OK... Just spoke to star, thanks Bass.

G & D is the owner of the Monaro, who is an ex employee of starr. Star are the Whipple distributors for Australia/Victoria... Going to see star this avo!

You got it, Matt used to work for Starr, but then went accross to G & D and finished off the Monaro Project. G & D have now set up the car for the 1/4. It still uses the 6 speed and is currently the fastest LS1 in Australia.

is this the same monaro that has the super charger sticking up out of the bonnet and uses semi comps on the street?? and has probably cam work as well by the way it sounds on idle. just wondering.. Thanks Rob

and has probably cam work as well by the way it sounds on idle.

they probably dropped a rexie motor in there, hence the rough idle

i think this guy works in jb hifi in camberwell in the ice section. he told me all about this car that sounded very similar.

Did the yellow Starr manaro get stolen a while back from a work shop? And there was a pretty big reward for it being found?

So I guess they eventually found the car..... I remember keeping an eye on the ls1 forums to see if it had been found, but I never found out.

[Guest Robo's]

Yeah it was stolen after a dyno comp for the Ford v's Holden show last year in Perth. I guess they knew which workshop it was being garaged at. No they never got it back.

This is his second yellow monaro and its built even quicker than the first one.

They need to get one of those HSV AWD coupés so the car isn't just a smoke machine.

Well Thanks for the help guys, I went and met up with Peter at Starr Performance. Had a chat about slapping on 2 Whipple Superchargers to the Mercury Motors, and just waiting for Mr Whipple from the US to work out a few things for us. Whilst I was there Peter took me out for a burl in (~I think his wifes car) those new Holden Station wagons with 4WD, this has a V8 with a Whipple supercharger, I must say thing went OK, but it's hard to impress me when you compare it the GTR, but I still reckon the E55 goes harder. What impressed me the most was the sound, it was awesome, I mean the Supercharger on the E55 is slighty audible but nothing like the Whipple, it was like having to little kids under the bonnet and as soon as you boot it, they screamed loud and hard... "Imagine having two of those on the boat??" he said. I couldn't get the smile of my face.
