Need some help determining which kit this car has installed..
 
Alright. So I've been looking at this GT lately that had a Whipple supercharger installed by the previous owner>

My question is this: based on the engine bay shots, can anyone tell me if it's the standard non-intercooled 400hp kit, or the H.O. 550hp intercooled kit? I was assuming the latter since that green tank behind the air filter looks like an air-to-water intercooler reservoir, but I want to make sure. TIA :)

in looking at it at the whipple website, i'm pretty sure that it is the resivoir, but its weird that its in plastic. all the pictures on the whipple website have metal reservoirs.

The guy I talked with at the dealer said the previous owner ordered almost everything through the Ford Racing catalog, so maybe their kits have plastic reservoirs for some reason? Or maybe this was originally a non-intercooled kit that he upgraded, and the upgrade kit had a plastic reservoir.

I found a few more shots of whipple'd GT's on Google with that same reservoir. The metal one must just be the new version. That's pretty cool though.. That means this car has the 500+hp kit :D

That is for sure the intercooled kit. You can see the lines going to the intercooler from the reservoir.

I see the resevoir, but looking at the hosing I do not see whre the intercooler will fit into the piping. It looks like it runs directly from the air filter right into the supercharger.

haha. that thing has fucking 6 lights in the front.

I know :p. First two mods on my list would be removing that dash mounted tach and replacing the grille with the Bullitt version. I think it would give the front end a "clean" appearance.
