Simply stating that because putting on one part is typically more expensive than another doesn't make Stillens stage upgrades cheaper than GTMs, which I know has been implied in some of the propaganda I've read in the forums. Here's another good example of some of the trash i've seen...if you aren't willing to post psi numbers or factual proof...you can't make a claim that you've increased your horsepower and lowered your boost at the same time. That's marketing propaganda used to just hype up sales. If you are going to make that claim in a public forum, you'd better provide the information to back it up...if you don't...it's just marketing bullsh*t and an intelligent person can see that. You can call me a Stillen hater all you want too, I'm not, I'm just going off of what I've seen in some of these forums, you can't tell me it's not true. I'll go pull all the posts that support my statement. Last edited by OMG37; 03-12-2010 at 08:20 PM. Reason: edit |

I realize you don't want to read this...but what I dont like is ppl discussing/comparing systems based on false advertising. If you are going to market a product and put numbers out for what it does...the numbers shouldn't be skewed with other modifications, like their CBE. I realize you may be an informed reader and have been keeping up with the other threads...but what about those that haven't...what about those that just saw the press release and said "WOW, Stillen's number's are better!". You can't tell me...that all that waiting we did why Stillen was putting together their release...they just missed this little detail? Really? Take your "I love Stillen" hat off for a second and just tell me I'm wrong. Last edited by OMG37; 03-12-2010 at 08:32 PM. Reason: edit |

Can't argue with you there. If only most people would just say the same thing, rather than try to formulate some sort of pro/con that isn't based on a relevant piece of factual information...these threads would be more informative.

Well, I think whats going on isn't about superchargers. I think its about people who have friends at company A or company B or simply they have just had a good experience with one or the other and feel like they have to fight the fight for them. I admittedly got caught in it too, but I can take a step back and see I was being immature.
