I just love how you open the hood and the S/C is in your face. Its good to see that the GTM and Stillen kits are finally moving along and running good. I think S/c is the way to go if you want to keep that stock type of power band.

Quick update. Everything is still great with my kit. I drove around quite a bit today as we had some beautiful weather in the 60s. Went to work and back, ran some errands around town, picked up the kids from school etc. and had no problems with hot starts.

I also calcuated gas mileage when I filled up today. I have gotten 11.6 MPG since my last fillup. I have been romping on the car pretty hard, taking friends from work for rides and also hade a couple of days on this fillup where I warmed the car up in the garage during some really cold weather (15 F) to make sure there were no problems with really cold starts. There was only about 15 or 20 miles of highway driving for this fillup.

I will update with the MPG on my next fillup. It will probably be a while before I get data for normal driving around town or on the highway as I am having so much fun and can't keep my foot out of it!

Glad to hear you like the Stillen kit, They SUX tho.. .

My install was $1700- dealer installed, Good price IMO.

I guess that is not too bad although my install price was less and included the tranny cooler and cat back exhaust installation.

EDIT: I left a poor review about Mac Autosport in Parker and everything has been righted more than needed. I initially had to pay to correct a tune, but after a conversation with the shop owner, he told me I shouldn't have had to pay. I needed some more work done on my supercharger and went back to MAC and even though some extra time was needed to complete the project I was only billed at the quoted price. Everyone at the shop is very knowledgeable and helpful. I just had to update my review to reflect the corrected help I received at the shop.

I don't know the specifics of your situation so I can't speak to it. However, I have never had any problems with MAC. They have always stood behind their work and made sure everything was addressed if I had any problems that cropped up later.

I'm also sure the CEL's had nothing to do with the tune. I got one a week later and it was my MAP sensor freaking out because of the boosted air pressure. It was an easy fix, just changed the limit on the senor.
