why go through all that trouble of returning when you are so close...weird. I was without my STI for like 6 months, but it was so good when I finally got it. Oh well, good luck guys.

Im glad im waiting for all the bugs to be worked out of this, Im surprised, Josh or one of the guys at Stillen posted some thread this morning for a $2k give away from DSport or something in co-op with stillen, i can find the thread now. You would think they would update the mess they have here instead of staying silent...

Thread

Im not sure if they are fully avoiding the thread but for the sanity of you guys that are having issues they need to be in touch, I think they should also be posting what they are working on to fix the various problems.

I hope everything works out, for the better.

Anybody considering a full custom tune instead?

After my HFC's are installed, I'll get an Uprev and do a customer tune. My local shop managed 326HP with a setup close to mine (Stillen CAI, CBE and HFC vs me with Stillen CAI and Berk HFC and CBE).

326 at the wheels is enough for me, I guess. If I had the spare cash, I probably would have gone with the Stillen SC but I can't justify the expense at the moment.

My total expense on my setup is:

$975 for Berk CBE
$420 for Berk HFC
$350 for Stillen CAI (used)

Throw in the Uprev and a tune and I think my total cost is pretty reasonable.

Before I put the car on the Dyno I called Stillen and asked what the AFR target was and they came back with 11.5 You will not see that number even come close. The car is running very rich per the Stillen tune.

you're running rich! my car's running good for most of the time, just these 2 days our weather's been over 90 degree here and my car acted up.

whiddles 08-24-2010 09:16 PM

yeah same here. its been over a 100 this whole week. I though Stillen was coming out with a new tune but i gave up awhile ago. Im just now getting back into this.

i'm hoping for a new tune soon too! this one is still the best out of all of them but it still has some issues that needs to be dialed in.

whiddles 08-24-2010 09:34 PM

yeah same here. I have not talked to anyone at stillen sence the car was at uprev. I think I am going to get a custom tune when i get some cash rolling in again.

364whp thats it?!? Even with a CBE?? You should be looking at AT LEAST 420whp, I know it's a mustang dyno but even then it should be at 400whp especially with your CBE. Dude if I was you I'd be flipping out right now, that's a lot of $ invested and a lot of work put in.

A side question, did they actually weigh in the car at 3625lbs or did they just put in an arbitrary number?

I hope they get it resolved for you.

nope,
just tired of the waiting game...who say's they are close? they say the same thing every week....oh, we are learning a lot this week...no promises, no ETA...the fact it is very difficult to get in touch with them or even get a follow up with them. The time that my car has been there communication has been very poor. Random issues since my car was there first was the cable that didnt get to them for 2 and half weeks. Than saying my one of my TB was bad and had to get replaced and than now their main issue with tuning. I know Stillen is busy but every other week they take off somewhere leaving me without answers or follow up to let me know how my car is. I am very, very disappoint with Stillen especially since they are a big name that they would have came through the second time around with G/Z crowd.
