Whipple Gen 6 W235AX 3.8L Intercooled Supercharger Upgrade Kit — Black (2023–2026 F-150 Raptor R)
The Whipple Gen 6 W235AX Supercharger Upgrade Kit delivers a substantial performance upgrade for the already-supercharged F-150 Raptor R, replacing the factory supercharger system with a larger, more capable 3.8-liter intercooled unit. Finished in a sleek Black finish, this upgrade kit is engineered specifically for the 2023–2026 F-150 Raptor R, unlocking additional horsepower and torque beyond the factory-supercharged 5.2L V8’s already-significant output.
Built for an Already-Supercharged Platform
Unlike a standard naturally aspirated supercharger addition, this kit is engineered as an upgrade for the Raptor R, which comes factory-equipped with a supercharged 5.2L V8. This kit replaces the factory blower with a larger, more efficient Whipple Gen 6 3.8L unit, designed to extract meaningfully more performance from a platform that already features forced induction from the factory.
Gen 6 Whipple Engineering
Whipple Superchargers has built a strong reputation in the performance automotive world for producing high-quality, positive-displacement supercharger systems known for excellent power delivery and reliability. The Gen 6 platform represents the latest evolution of Whipple’s engineering, incorporating updated rotor pack design and improved efficiency compared to previous generations.
3.8L Intercooled Supercharger for Maximum Output
At the core of this kit is a larger 3.8-liter positive-displacement supercharger unit paired with an integrated intercooler system. The increased displacement over the factory unit allows for greater airflow capacity, while the intercooler helps manage intake air temperatures under boost — critical for maintaining consistent power output and protecting engine components during sustained high-output driving.
W235AX Configuration
The W235AX designation reflects this kit’s specific rotor pack and system configuration within Whipple’s Gen 6 lineup, engineered to deliver a particular boost and power curve suited for the Raptor R’s factory-supercharged 5.2L platform.
Black Finish for a Clean, Aggressive Look
Beyond performance, this kit features a Black finish on the supercharger housing components, giving your Raptor R’s engine bay a clean, aggressive, high-performance appearance that complements the kit’s serious power upgrade.
Purpose-Built Fitment for the Raptor R
This kit is specifically engineered for the 2023–2026 F-150 Raptor R, ensuring correct component fitment, bracket compatibility, and accessory drive integration for this unique factory-supercharged platform. Always confirm your exact trim and configuration before ordering.
