By the way there are also down sides to the "other" S/C design as well. So I was just trying to give some info, not taking sides lol, before someone jumps on me for being a bandwagoner.....

You need to get baffled healights. The force from the extra HP may force the fluid toward the back of the housing during acceleration resulting in a loss of fluid out the bulb socket.

The differences you pointed out in fuel deilvery ect may make a difference then the argument will have been pointless. Either way they are going to do what they want and he said no already...

They are not going to test every possible combo. If I were you (and I'm saying this becasue we have the same car) I'd be more concerned weather STILLEN will offer (or research the need for) a tune for NISMO models if need be. My car base line dyno'd around 300HP to the wheels bone stock and that's not all from a Nismo exhaust. The tune is differnet and makes a difference. Thier tune may or may not be ideal for your car.

I think you are missing some subtle points of my post. If the G37 kit is irrelevant to the 370Z kit, WHY can't the PSI used to create the posted dyno be revealed? Also, the fact that I have a NISMO edition doesn't affect this kit. Stillen will have no need to retune for our cars as the flash will be the same no matter what the OEM tune.

Funny, this coming from you. Weren't you the one who suggested that I take my questions, comments and concerns into the Stillen thread instead of the GTM one?

For any of you that think I may be trolling or out for Stillen blood - I suggest you read all of my posts here. REALLY read them. You will see why I ask the questions I do and why I don't accept the trivial and vague answers. How many of you have purchased Stillen SC kits in the past? How many of you have spent over 4k only to find out that what you were promised wasn't what you received? I am willing to wager I am the only one. Also, for any of you that may want information on my true experience with Stillen and their SC kit, feel free to PM me.

why do you assume my comment was directed at you?... just curious, is most of the world centered around you?

why do you believe you're the only one who has spent money and been disappointed?... perhaps you mean you're the only one ever to be dissapointed by a Stillen kit? yeah, that makes more sense

are you naturally vindictive? or just towards Stillen?

please share more of your valuable perspective

thanks

On the tune: Unless I missed exactly what type of engine management they are using it could effect it, I don' know. If it's a reflash then you are right. If it's a piggy back then you are wrong.

RED370: I lol everytime I see one of your F-ed up avatars.

It's not an EMS. It's a reflash. It will be either Cobb or UpRev. Knowing their working relationship with UpRev, I am going to wager on the latter.

That comment speaks volumes, son.

Any $$$$$ figures yet on the kit? Or Kyle, can you please post me a link to a similar kit (G, 350Z perhaps?) so that I have a ballpark number, or PM if you'd like. TY!

Don't forget the boost fluid too. We might need a boost fluid cooler...
