Good point........

I too hope that this depreciating investment (contradictory statement) will be well worth the cashola from a overall performance and reliability standpoint.

Currently, I am working with Kyle to deliver on to me this SC and a grocery list of Stillen performance goodies. All cooling issues will be covered. Also, there will be a strong possibility of a AP Racing break kit on all 4 corners. 6pot front/ 4rear.

My goal is not balls-out power, but a smooth delivery. Sportbike trackdays do just fine for my adrenial needs. This will be a non-rushed garage project mainly for streets, a few occasional track excursions, and just for the sheer pleasure of working on my vehicle. Self-therapy I call it. The Mrs. says its an excuse to drink beer, talk garage language, avoid dishes, and spend the new house fund. She is right but, I just give her the blank poker face and she moves on.

Perhaps the batch of Stillen and other component bits will sing a sweet melody under the Z's hood to give me the desired results. Time will tell........

I would REALLY like to see ALL the Stillen test car results for some added pre-purchase comfort.

Late April is here, how close are the kits to shipping and ETA for CARB approval?

Kits are extremely close to shipping. Right now the instructions are being checked/verified by one of our technicians. Whenever we develop a highly complex part like a supercharger system we like to give the instructions to one of our installation technicians so they can go through them line by line during an actual install. This way, if they have any questions or find something that should be changed, we can make those changes prior to shipping out kits. We are installing a production supercharger system on a local customer's car to complete this process. This is also the car that we will be using for CARB testing. Some of you local guys might recognize the owner...ABC 7 weatherman Dallas Raines.

We are also working on the instructions for the tuning process. These are pretty basic but we're hoping to use a really simple process for everyone to follow along. I don't want to say too much about this though as it is very unique and we are very excited about it. After this is completed we will be sending out the tuning software so people can begin sending us their ROM's so we can begin finalizing the tunes for everyone.

It is impossible for us to give an ETA of when our CARB testing will be completed because it is entirely dependant on CARB. I can confirm that about two weeks ago we sent CARB all of our documentation and they did confirm with us that we are the only company who has submitted for CARB approval on an aftermarket forced induction system for the VQ37. Now they need to review all of our information, the time frame on that process fluctuates. Then we get our approval for testing. Once we test the car the results get sent back to CARB for further examination. There are a lot of steps in getting CARB approval and there is just no way for us to get or give a definitive timeframe.

Spent all but the last 2 1/2 years of my life in Illinois and Missouri and I must say that I'll take such small inconveniences to enjoy the weather and lifestyle here in San Diego.

Just a minor spelling correction: Illness and Misery not Illinois and Missouri :)
