OK? So did everyone else. If I have a problem with a company's product I call them to get it fixed, not post angry questions on a forum and then get mad when you don't get answers immediately. They are being upfront and taking care of everyone that had any kind of problems...just give them a call...I'm sure they would be happy to update you.

I should be quiet about my results and promblems with this kit and keep them from everyone on the forum thats thinking about getting this kit? While u go ahead and tell everyone how great your results where? You are the only one that i have seen on this forum and others including the g37 forums that has got the results that stillen has advertised. They have been called. im just sharing my expierence with this kit that wasnt ready to be released, with other people on the forum.

Tom, I think the point is not whether or not you've called in the past. Using the forum as a bitching vehicle is more the point.

i was under the impression that this thread is to talk about the stillen supercharger good or bad and share questions and results that some of us have.

I don't think saying the same thing ad nauseam is helping the conversation, that's all. I hope it all works out, I also hope you are speaking directly with Stillen rather than your installer at this point.

Hmmmmm! Weird! I made a tad more power than you did and mine is a G37 and I only have an CBE.

When I first got my kit installed I was running into problems too. Just like you, mad as hell! I understand your frustrations. So then I contacted Josh@Stillen and he was the most helpful guy I encountered. He walked me through all the troubles I was running into and got me going within a week or 2. I think you just gotta be a little more patience and chill. Your car will be fine and will make that power they advertised. Worse case is just drive it down to them. That is exactly what I did and they fixed everything and treated me well while my stay.

Check out my review and visit.

what are all the people who dont live in CA going to do who cant just drive on down to stillen. It should just be an install ecu reflash and the advertised horsepower + or - 5% for some condition variations. not get it and have problems and wait two extra weeks.
I can understand there frustrations and totally side with them.

But a lot of assumptions are being made. His car is not a standard set up and he's assuming Stillen and not his shop is to blame for his low numbers. If taking it to Stillen fixes it like in weiboy718's case, I'd have to assume that something was installed or setup incorrectly in the first place. If a special tune is need because he has other mods, he can't expect the kit to magically account for that. I guess I'm saying there is a lot of Stillen bashing going on w/o enough evidence that Stillen is even the problem here. I'm also not saying they aren't, just not enough facts to start pointing fingers to date.
