Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - Air Intake Temps- Stillen SC

Sorry to dig up an old thread. But I'm very keen to know the ambient air temp on the day?

*edit* Also for those unaware, Seb posted that they found the SC unit had unusually tight bearings, and once that was rectified, temps dropped by 50-60f. */edit*

Just finished doing the Stillen install myself with a 9 PSI pulley and given the crazy summer we're in at the moment 30-40c and occasional heatwaves of 40c+ (104f+) I'm getting very concerned about reliability. Car didn't make that much power (about 360rwhp) and Tuner told me he couldn't advance timing past 13 without pinging.

I'm also looking to install a AIT sensor post-intercooler and Seb is doing an e-Tune for me in a week or two.

Honestly just kicking myself for not going A2A the first time, and while that most likely is on the books, that won't be happening for another year I think.
