Input from those who have SC their 370

You're going to get a lot of people telling you the GTM kit is better on this board. Lots of people had issues with the Stillen one for some reason or another. I had good luck with the Stillen and make 450whp(dynojet) all day long with 0 issues. Personally, I think that if you want 450whp on a mustang dyno, you're not going to get that from an SC kit...you want a TT.

I think I've essentially maxed out the stillen SC at 9psi. I guess I could go 10 psi and make like 465-470, but at the expense of safety...whats the point.

Now from your experience, which would you say would be suited for a daily driver? Or does that just depend on the driver? I am a private security contractor so when I come home I tend to drive up and down the east coast for a month visiting family and then I am gone again for a while.

Also nice avatar LOL I had to do a double take

Your not close to maxing out that blower there are a few thing that you can do to bring up boost and make more power safely. This has been done before just on 350z's and not 370z's I should have some results soon.

To the OP most people on this board have the GTM kit than the Stillen kit due to the tuning issues that some people have had with the Stillen kit.The info is out there if you go with the Stillen kit make sure you get a custom tune.

Ya I know I have been looking into both but I wanted to hear from people who have actually purchased both or one of them just to see what they have experienced from it. I would like this to be more of a this is what I have and how I feel about it kind of post, I just hope it doesn't turn into a disaster like the Motordyne M37 did LOL

No no, all I meant was that I don't think the kit could make any more power at 9psi. Perhaps if I got longtubes and those could flow a bit more. I know the blower can do a lot more, but the point im trying to make is that you have to push the sc unit past 9psi if you want to make more than 400 on a mustangdyne dyno.
