Correct me if I'm wrong but I remember seeing that stillen offered a 3 year warranty if anything went wrong with the sc or engine.

Im not sure, they will warranty the whole engine and kit even if they think the problem wasnt related to the kit? Lets something went wrong but it wasnt really the kit that casued it, would they still fix it? And should I say the install shop will still fix it? Cuz more than likely Nissan wont touch it now and it would be a hell of a fight with them to prove or disprove the cause.

I guess same question for GTM too on this.

I don't think they just give you a 3 year warranty on their system. They have arranged a contract/deal with an outside company to offer a warranty on their system is my understanding.

There is always a warranty on the supercharger through the manufacturer though that would be "included" with the kit...that's no different then GTM's supercharger though.

I think you might want to find an actual statement from Stillen (i.e. Josh or Kyle) before you go believing you will get a 3 year warranty included on the system as a whole.

RCZ · 05-12-2010, 03:23 PM

I think Stillen does have an engine warranty on their base kit just as long as nothing is altered from their original design / tuning.

Id like to see some data comparing A-A W-A cooling, but that is for a different thread I guess.
If people are really comcerned they can always stick a decent meth kit in there to really ensure an efficiant charge temp.

A SC / TT set up will rock regardless, Id love to have one and will take what ever cooler comes.. ;-)

Thought everything would be ready to go 2 weeks ago... :s

NYBladeZ · 05-12-2010, 07:54 PM

mmmm roots type supercharger

NYBladeZ · 05-12-2010, 07:57 PM

Once both kits go out and we start getting some real life testimonies, that's when we'll see who comes out on top. Personally I think Sam has got it down, I really like how GTM designed the supercharger around the VQ motor instead of augmenting the VQ motor to the SC. In the end reliability, simplicity of install, and hp/tq figures will rule.

Kastley85891 · 05-12-2010, 08:06 PM

^bingo - too much BS from nut huggers just spoils decent threads anyways

Each there own and all that..

The more offerings the better, def some talented engineering out there, all the better for the end user.

I cant wait for the supercharger wars to be settled on a track!! Perfect situation = same driver, same day, same track, 2 different 370s with same supporting mods but different superchargers. Hopefully some magazine will do this!

Sam >>> would you pony up the shop supercharged Z for a comparo like this??
