Default Stillen Front Bumper and GTM Twins

does anyone know if the GTM twin turbo kit will fit behind the Stillen front bumper without issues? I have an email out to GTM asking this question but haven't gotten a response back yet. I've searched google and haven't found any 370Zs with the Stillen front that also are boosted with anything other than the Stillen supercharger system. I think the GTM intercooler would look amazing behind that front bumper but looking at the piping and the air filters sitting where they do on the turbo kit makes me wonder about fitment where the side vents are since it appears the edges of the vents turn in and would either hit the piping or prevent proper fitment

GTM replied to my email and said they haven't had a customer come in with the Stillen bumper on their car that wanted their twin turbo kit installed so they don't know if it will or won't fit.

Anyone else have any insight on this?

I guess I'll be the guinea pig and try it for myself and see if it'll work out. If it doesn't fit I'll just go back to the stock bumper or something no big deal. Just wanted to check and see if anyone had confirmed fitment before I took the plunge

Give forum member Niztalgic a PM. He installed the gtm stage 1 supercharger on his Nismo and helped me with my Stillen front install. He may have some insight

There you go man, you got a lead at least. I was going to say, see if you can get the measurements from inside the bumper and send it to them to see if you have enough clearance. Other than that man check with Niztalgic like zentroy said. Good luck and keep us posted!
