STILLEN 370Z Supercharger System - Announcement!!!

wifedrivenZ · 07-06-2010, 12:44 AM

Josh@STILLEN,
I am starting to doubt how easy the SC is to install because my "Dealership sucks at life" When they first looked at it they were saying 35 hours. I posted on here and people helped me find how many hours it takes for a normal person so they dropped the price for install $2,000. From that point on I should of taken my car and ran but since I the closest shop that could do it is 2 hours away and my wife would not have a way home we opted for the closer shop. Now the reason for posting.
The shop is having trouble with the install. They don't think the stillen oil cooler kit was built to work with the SC. Is this true or not? The shop tried to call but you were closed for the 5th. Also since the car is still there they are waiting on the new tune before they release the car. Do you know how long it will take or is it as easy as downloading a new tune from the net? With the new tune are we going to be seeing a big difference in DYNO numbers? If you are going safer then you would expect to lose some HP.
Thanks

Exactly.

Assuming they installed the kit right, you should be out of there in 15 minutes.

Do I need a boost gauge with the SC? If so is there any pictures out there with one installed I would like to see the placement of the gauge.
Thanks

A quick note. My wife just got the car home. It looks great she had fun driving the car. The tech who worked on the car was worried that she could not drive the car home because of all the power. Good job Stillen she loves it.

So the wife gets the SC Z? You better have a Bugatti or something then.
