As far as GTM going far above 4 psi on the stock intake, don't forget GReddy, and i believe AAM have as well. i haven't heard of a failure yet, and the G37's have been boosted for a couple of years now. You can also look at other non Nissan vehicles that use the same Dupont technology for intakes as well as charge piping on a variety of factory engines, including turbo diesel engines.

Basically for anyone other than bullitt, and maybe a couple other insane folks looking for that kind of HP. i'm sure the factory nylon intake will not have issues. High boost, and high hp may be a different story.

Humm......always a first.

Kit pic is a winner

I love the fact that the real little tidbits like the supercharger and bracket are done for you. This kit looks so simple to install, by someone decent with tools that it amazes me.

LiquidZ · 05-21-2010, 12:36 PM

This kit looks superb. I spy the new washer bottle. Question for you Stillen guys: how is the intake situated behind the bumper?

Thanks! Actually that is the overflow bottle for the radiator, we do not need to relocate the washer bottle.

I just went out and snapped a few pictures of the front of another one of the test cars. I'm processing that picture now so you will see the heat exchanger and the intakes. We are going through a third round of instruction checks right now on another vehicle. Now we have had multiple mechanics doing the installs, and verifying our instructions. Additionally, this new car is an out of state car so we are confirming that we are prepared for CA and out of state vehicle's, should there be any differences. You would be amazed at some of the tiny differences we've seen in the past that can cause big headaches!

So now we have the kit running on four different vehicle's...

Also, one thing that is not shown in this picture is the air filter shield. Just like on our G37 Gen. 3's we have made a hydro shield to protect the filters from water.

LiquidZ · 05-21-2010, 01:36 PM

Doh you are right! That isn't the washer bottle. Thanks for clarifying that as I had no idea where the overflow tank was.

Can't wait to see the pictures.

Kyle@STILLEN · 05-21-2010, 02:50 PM

Hopefully this picture shows up.

If you look to the left you will see the heat exchanger, look to the right, you will see the Y-pipe intake system.

LiquidZ · 05-21-2010, 03:53 PM

Thanks Kyle!

I thought I saw a filter poking through your bumper:

Kyle, how are the MAF sensor harness/connecter plugs extended. Is it plug and play with new male/female connecoter plugs on an extension harness or is it cut & extend the stock?

So what does that have to do w/ the Nylon intake manifold? sorry i didn't read through the 20 pages, and honestly will try to skip most of the meet and "lifestyle" type posts because they are usually a bunch of internet slang, and abbreviations that i don't keep up with enough to understand anyway. lol

Did you attach metal screen to front bumper for protecting a/c condenser from road debris like a stone or something? Will you let me know what it is? My a/c condenser was damaged from a road debris. Now, I am searching for something to protect a/c condenser. Alluminum screen for window at Home depot is too weak.

Please!!!

Black epoxy mesh stainless steel. When properly framed it is an excellent light security window and door screen (resists cans, bottles, rocks, BB's,and casual forced entry). This is one of the mesh specifications is approved by (Department of Housing and Urban Development). It cuts with very sturdy hand or machine shears.
