Ok well i cant really argue with that. But lets be honest, people spend A LOT more money on cars slower than a modded mustang, and would never consider a modded mustang. Even if they prefer straight line speed /shrug. To each their own.

*just to clarify/not hurt m4a1's feelings I am not someone that wouldn't consider the mustang. I was just making a point about people with deep pockets that don't mind spending the dough.

Yeah but all i'm saying is people get our cars confused for porsches, whereas mustangs are confused for older used mustangs, and camaro's are either confused for dodge stratus' (98-2001) or toys that turn into robots.

Lets just hope Stillen resolves all these problems sooner rather than later.

Wow!!!! Talk about a complete change in attitude about Stillen and their supercharger kit between page 1 & this last page!!!!!! Take a look starting with page 1 and it's nothing but excitement & pure praise for Stillen. Then jump here to the last page and it's doom and gloom.

Looks like the guys from Stillen went from being heros to being the enemy. Are they even posting as frequently in this thread now that's it's gone South for them?

It looks to me like Stormcrow should have been taken more seriously for his questions concerning this supercharger kit and not been hassled so much for doing so.

Any tuner with any experience can tune this, its nothing special. If they say they can't tune it, stay far far away.

I've got a reputable installer/tuner in MD if anyone is local to that area looking to get this done.

I don't aim to do this, but doesn't the hardware bear the CARB certification numbers on them? That means that you could theoretically get the Stillen tune and CARB certification and then run to an independent tuner to get it custom tuned. Is there anything I am missing other than the fact that it is cheating the system?

the reflash stillen sends is locked though, on the uprev and stillen thing in the off chance that uprev is going to report cable purchases to stillen, have your buddy buy the cable and get it shipped to his house with the tuner license then grab it and run to an independent shop and get it tuned.

There is absolutely no way that uprev will report anything. They are under no legal obligation to do so and a sale is a sale. It is the car owner's responsibility to maintain the specs of the kit to comply with CARB. Stillen isn't going to refuse to sell you different pulleys after the fact or report you to the police for ordering one either.

Good point, you never know though with the CARB requirements.

Maybe if you guys live in CA you would know how we feel lol. The CARB is important to us. People gets state ref ticket for having just an intake. I wonder what the cop will say if he sees the blower haha. Probably will tow our cars without carb cert
