Idle surge after Stillen supercharger install

NissanTracker · 10-12-2017, 03:11 PM

I actually have their new revised harnesses.

I'm trying to fab up a new shield for the filter. It has been idling fine, but when the fans kick on... that is where the idle surge occurs.

most people who run the kit extend the harness itself instead of using the extension harness that comes with it which proved to be problematic.

This is most likely it.

I have an 11' 370z nismo with installed Stillen SC and oil cooler. I bought the canned tune from Stillen and for what it's worth I too have an occasional P0300 pop up. I want to make a few mods and then I hope to get it to a tuner soon which will hopefully fix the problems I'm having with the shitty Stillen SC kit.

I ordered some material for a shield... I'm going to make an attempt this week to get it done. I'll switch out the TB's as well. I just haven't had the time.

My last resort will be back to the tuners, but this will wait until the spring. I'm considering TopGunz A-A kit and would rather just put that on and re-tune. I have a true dual exhaust as well to install.

Having the MAFs so close to the filters is just a terrible design. You normally want them closer to the T.B's. Especially when there is a difference in Temperature. Maf's are reading directly after the filters... then goes through the charger and maybe not significant, the air temp/density is not the same. I have a feeling this initial design has something to do with their CARB certification.... as well as the crappy in house tune

I talked with someone that mentioned that this Stillen S.C. kit, if installed by a SAE certified tech at Nissan, will not void the factory warranty. Have to use the Stillen tune to stay CARB compliant
