i have it posted on a nismo page but no out right 350 sites. i need to remove the front bumper to see where i cut. the y pipe could be adjusted a bit to make fitting it easier. you do need to widen the hole that leads it into the engine bay but that could be fixed by changing the angles. also making the first throttle body cupler an inch or so longer would make mounting it all up way easier.

Thanks topgunz for the all the questions you answered. My tuner was Nick@ Fastech Motorsport. He was amazed by this kit for what it did and how easy was installation.

Previously car made 407HP@7.5 PSI on Dyno Dynamics Stillen Supercharger.

Car made 462HP @8 PSI on Dyno Dynamics with following addition.
-Topgunz Air to Air Kit
-AEM Meth Kit 100% Meth

Isn't there is bumper you can buy that clears the intercooler? Not bumper cover but the bumper.

Download the install guide off Stillen's site. You want to remove the belt and then unbolt the mounting bracket that holds the pulleys and the supercharger.

Default Air to Air intake upgrade

Thought you all might be interested in an intake mod for the air to air kit. A fair bit of design and engineering went in to this over the last few months. Along with the air intake upgrade I had the supercharger rebuilt with upgraded Si trim impeller/compressor. The main benefit of all this is more torque in the mid range. Other benefits are a much bigger/better air filer resulting in better breathing, no need to remove the sc to replace the filter and much better/easier adjustment of jack shaft tension.
