"Obviously it's above 4 pounds and below 10" (4+10) /2 = 7 psi. Done!

PSI averages, awesome!

Understood. But, again, stating what PSI you used on the test G37 to ascertain the dyno posted should not be an issue. I don't see that this will confuse anyone nor do I see that it is relevant to the 370Z kit that is yet to be installed/tuned/tested. (Granted they are the same kit with exceptions being different fuel delivery and possibly the loss of the strut bar.) I honestly would just like to know what PSI is required to achieve 420+ at the wheel with 20" wheels. A lot of people have these on the 370Z, as well.

Also, as a potential repeat client, I would love to see transparency when you post dynos. Witholding key information as to how the quoted power was obtained is not transparent.

And don't mistake my meaning - I don't mean that wheel horse power numbers should be identical...but, more of what you stated of the percentages you purport in your advertisements (threads) should be reproducable by most, if not all, who purchase the kit. This wasn't the case for me in my last experience with a Stillen produced SC kit. Even when running 93 octane and not the piss-water you Cali guys call fuel.

But, I digress. Hopefully we will see some honest and complete posts about the previous testing and any future testing. :cheers:

Seriously? He's not gonna state it until the press release. Get over it for God's sake. Kyle won't say it because he's a proper businessman but I can. Screw Off.

lol, guess Stillen should of released nothing. Sounds like they would have been better off.

Yes, you'd think people give them credit for sharing information all together.

Instead they focus on the information they don't have, think of dubious reasons why they don't have the info.

In the end this is information they will have before they can actually buy the product anyways....So why make such a point that you don't have the info today.... I don't get it....

Patience is a virtue...

RCZ · 03-05-2010, 10:01 PM

^ no one gets it. Kyle has a LOT more patience than I do. I would've told him to f off a long time ago.

And stop the trolling. I for one am sick of the BIRD crap. Let's wait and see. But I guess some here just need to believe in conspiracies.

NYBladeZ · 03-05-2010, 11:12 PM

Keep up the good work guys, we're looking forward to the S/C battle, I know a longer wait on our behalf is needed to ensure the quality and reliability of a product.

LOL don't you want the developers working on the product and the salesmen selling it on forums? Dammit Shumby, the cold air is getting to you, man.

G37Sam · 03-06-2010, 06:18 AM

Even though he might seem like he's trolling he does make quite some valid points.

What are we 5th graders with low IQs to get "confused". I feel offended lol

I still can't find a reason why the boost pressure was omitted honestly, reminds me of the days back in primary school when I gave in my report card with a few grades scribbled out, and it sure wasn't because my old man was going to get confused lol
