How about a teaser pic to extinguish the fire.

You quoted him, bolded the statement, and then didn't bother to read it. He didn't say no one is running it.

their products are not out their yet

How did I miss read that? He said GTM products are not out yet, which is wrong by what I said.

I don't know how you misread that, I'm not in your mind. But most people would take that to mean volume (when you complete the quote and add "like stillen").

Even in that statement, we will read it as volume, Stillen has just correct a bunch of goods (good job Stillen), but actually have less volume than the GTM kit so far by the looks of it. Meaning that, Stillen has sold a few more kits than GTM but has less working and less endurance so far on the installed user kits. GTM has had more working kits so far which could quickly change with Stillen looking like they have resolved most issues for the end users.

Oh yes, we have published sales and installed numbers for both kits. I forgot.

that's a 6/4 setup. that's the only setup available. It's good enough for me. Bigger doesn't means it's better.

Here's an update with my supercharger install and its current state.

I was shipped a new intake pipe along with a new restrictor valve and was instructed to load up the new tune as well. I performed all of this last Thursday and I immediately noticed a huge improvement in the startup and idle. One of my main issues before was a horrible stuttering under any type of acceleration and steady cruising. I was also throwing misfire codes constantly but now most of these issues are resolved.

There is still a hesitation whenever I accelerate with more than 1/2 to 2/3 throttle and the only resolve is to back off the pedal slightly. I also managed to throw another misfire code today while I was thrashing the car a bit to see how it behaved. Now I know.
No lapping for me yet!!
And of course, it feels down on power. There's no way it's making anywhere close to 440whp.
I e-mailed Stillen a couple of times to tell them the issues that I'm still experiencing and asked what my options are and what was being done to resolve the ongoing issues. My response was that "he'll forward it to the guys in the shop"

Will Stillen come to Canada to pick up my car as well?

Sorry to hear about your problems. I believe Stillen will come up with a better refinement tune for you guys as well. Just be patience. Should hear from them in a week or so.

How can you say this with having NO knowledge of what they have sold? I mean you must be kidding. Stillen even came on here right now literally telling you, that internet forums are truly a smaller percentage of their business b/c they have been around so long. YOU PERSONALLY do not know how many kits are out there, maybe you do for GTM, but not Stillen. I have nothing bad to see about GTM truly, b/c apparently most of their kits are good. THey have some quirks, but they are working them out.

Stillen is doing the same, but from what we are all assuming is they seem to have sold alot more kits at the beginning then GTM. For our shop car, as long as stillen gets this fixed, it will be the Stillen kit. That is our preference and it fits our needs for the show and go purpose.

Chris,

In reguards to you building a shop car, I have to agree that the Stillen kit is by far more bling. However, a built TT + meth and all the goodies only needs a big sign that says "1000hp 370z" :tup:
