Preparation for the STILLEN supercharger

Xan · 03-06-2010, 12:42 PM

(in an effort to get this thread back on track)
we know Stillen has released all that they are comfortable with before the soon to be press release. So let's get of that subject and focus on the fun.

For those who are considering this SC, what is your goal in either HP or track/drag time or something else?

And what other mods are you planning to run to make the most of the SC?
Are you planning on replacing the clutch?

Then you'd better start building the engine.

I'm not a drag expert, but I would think you would need +500 HP and torque at the wheels to get a 370 over the line in 11 seconds

I wouldnt say so, a good pair of slicks/DR's plus 400+ whp should do the trick, Z Eliminator is shooting for an 11.7, and with a 12.8 already posted with street tires and no boost, i'd say he could do it.

Comparing it to the 350Z

Fast Nissan 350Zs 1/4 Mile 0-60 Drag Racing - DragTimes.com

Top time running 11.080 has:
Horsepower @ wheels: 530.00
Torque @ wheels: 525.00

And is running MT ET Street's

I'd like to see a slip and dyno of that car....

Anyways this is a bit of topic and as I said I'm not a drag expert, but I know taking of a full second is a lot...

This might be a handy estimate: Calculators From RPM Outlet

I think 450rwhp is enough to get into the 11's. A guy on here is running 12.8 @110 with around 310rwhp. Another is doing 12.7 @ 116 with bolt-ons and a 50 shot in 3rd gear. The 116 mph is good for 11's

Yeah you should learn all the performance cars capabilities, so to know which ones you give a friendly wave and which you can embarrass

Then at least if they are stock, the odds are in your favor.

For me the SC is just because I love the feeling of the G forces!

Haha, agreed. I don't really have an HP or timeslip goal. I just wanna mash the gas pedal and get that "oh, $hit!!!" feeling like Han Solo jumping to light speed in the Millennium Falcon, LOL
