Ohhhh gotcha. Okay. Didn't know that -- haha still new to learning all about cars
Well I don't really like the Stillen Manifold anyway because of how annoying the bolts are to tighten underneath it. I would swap it out with a different manifold that is a bit easier to put on and take off~
I was thinking of investing into the GTR-Style 3D print manifold that the other guy on here is making at the moment, since it looks nice as well, that or get pretty much any other upper manifold x.X

Before you go spending money on a different intake manifold you need to figure out how you're going to run the intake pipe on the drivers side. The placement of the sc doesn't leave any room. If there was room, the stillen manifold wouldn't be needed, everyone would run the stock intake manifold.

True that. I got to see how to make the piping fit :/ Hmm I guess I will ask my local aftermarket shop to see if they can figure out or find the proper piping pieces for the stillen manifold / other manifold if easier for them.
Thank you

Got any pictures of how they got the piping to work? I'd love to see the routing.

Sorry. Misunderstanding. What I meant was I also want to know what the piping would look like and what is needed to make a v7 fit wifh the Stillen Manifold.
There was a v7 ysi kit sold 3 days ago by a 350z member on that 350z forum for 4k usd which included piping as well so for sure it fits that car. It had about 5k miles on it.
I was jealous because I would have bought it if I had the money haha.
The only thing about thar setup was you sacrificed using AC is what the OP seller said.

Also, the v7 is proven to fit in our 370z cars as well because I remember reading about it somewhere here as well. I just never seen pictures either
I know the head unit isnt self lubricating either so youd need additional things to make it work as compared to the v3 units.

I meant I would ask my local aftermarket shop to see if they could make a v7 fit in our cars if I ever bought one and gave it to them to install haha.

If I'm correct, the ac compressor is deleted in order to mount the sc on the passenger side. That would free up the space on the drivers side in order to run the intake piping to the stock intake manifold. I could be wrong though.

That would make sense!
I would cry in summer heat xD
But actually no. Look at this, the photo of the v7 ysi shows this:
