The V-3 blower is rated to flow 1150cfm. That should be good enough to get you to 600whp, if all other supporting mods are there of course.

sweet man, very interested in what you are working on :) I've held off upgrading anything else at the moment, was thinking of going E85 and seeing what comes from the kit as is with 9psi but decided to hold off for now.

sub'd

the water/air portion of the stillen kit is the primary reason i was hesitant to go stillen. will be nice to see an upgrade path to a "stage 2" version.

im with you, considered doining a rear mount also, but supercharger is what i would like. i contacted gtm they said there kits are 4-6 weeks from shipping. would do a 500$ deposit then let you know when the kit is together but that would be a risk. said they were making a comback but who knows. i would only do a COD with them and would prefer them to atleast try to make good with the people they ripped off. it sucks cuz im really into thier kit. now if stillen would just sell the blower and mounting brackets i would be into that and do a front mount myself

:rofl2::rofl2::rofl2:Don't believe a word of it. At this point, with all that has happened, going with GTM is just retarded. He will tell you anything to get your money.

I believe that the Stillen kit has higher potential than the other kits due to the head unit. The only issue IMO is the way they have the piping configured.

airikrankin 03-17-2015 11:19 AM

what kind of room in under the blower? if keeping stock manifold and running the charge piping to the drivers side is it possible to run the piping under the blower then up to the tb? found a wrecked g37 with this kit on it, before buying was just curious of the room under the blower. it just seems pretty tight to go above or around

EVOHUNTER 03-17-2015 01:20 PM

I've been looking into it, Either rotate the blower to 90 degrees and run the pipe down the fan shroud, on the driver side. around the rad and into the intercooler. then up through the passenger side into a Y, then into the TB's. Theres minimal space this way.

Or keep the blower in the same position, run a 12" pipe up to the factory coolant cap, then run it down between the 2 fans, there a lot of space that way. Then back around the passenger or driver side.

There isn't much room the way your thinking.

any chance u could get a pic?

EVOHUNTER 03-17-2015 01:45 PM

we haven't started on it, but my cars in pieces right now.

Do you want a picture of the blower assembly? and the space around it???

the blower is still in the car, but everything else is off.

airikrankin 03-17-2015 03:04 PM

ya like to see space around the blower in the car all sides please

EVOHUNTER 03-17-2015 03:05 PM

Give me tell tomorrow, ill get you some photos.

airikrankin 03-17-2015 03:09 PM

ok thanks, i found a wrecked g37 with the stillen kit on it, front pipe is damaged, but everything else looks ok. wants 5500 for the whole car. i could part it out and scrap it (my dad owns an autowrecking) and get some $$ back and have a spare engine for just incase. but before i get it id like to see how exactly it fits in there. that g37 is in new jersey and im in pa by pittsburgh, so i would have to have it shipped
