I have read that Stillen has addressed the extra heat that is going to be generated by an already high compression ratio engine. I have not read or found where and how GTM has addressed this issue.

How about build quality, reliability and the safety of the two. Is 8 psi already at the top of what the stock nissan engine can handle. I would not feel comfortable running that close to a possible engine failure if so.
both are using ICs. The FMIC of GTM is a proven product, the one by Stillen since its not a normal one will IMO have to prove it works. I know water to air ICs work just need to see how the one Stillen made does. The GTM FMIC is one that is used thru out FIs so its been proven. And 8 psi isnt as bad as some turbos PSIs.
