Stillen supercharger long term reports

TopgunZ · 08-22-2015, 10:29 PM

Your going to spend $9k to go FI then not spend another $500 on a tune?

That is the wrong way to do it.

If I do it, it will be with an Ecutek tune. Being able to tune VVEL will probably let me get more power out of the kit with my LTHs. I would also probably do flexfuel for cooling and some more power as well. I believe Ecutek has some safety options as well for detonation to help keep things from going boom.

Is it a good system because i look into this and their good and bad comments or twin turbo is better way to go

I believe you can get more power out of a twin turbo, but this is a good solid kit that they've put together IMO so far.

One more thing to note. If you want to max out on power, TT may be the way to go. The majority of those who have had issues with the Stillen SC kit, have been because they went beyond the stock kit and started swapping pulleys, etc. The kit is ideal when kept as-sold, from everything I've gathered on this forum.

Maybe he wants to keep his warrant?

Stillen if I read correctly you guys will do a custom tune and keep the warrant if it's don't by you?

you'll NEVER see it on the Stillen kit, you MIGHT pull a high 12. If you want low 12's - High 11's better look at a turbo. Either the BP kit or a Twin, AAM or FI kit

Install the Stilen kit you warranty is VOID!! Been there dine that :/

He might have been talking about Stillen's limited warranty if you stay on their base tune?

If he was talking about our Optional Warranty then yes, you would need to be on a STILLEN Tune (canned or custom).

Ah ok, Just do want them to think the cars warranty is there,even tho Stillen is represented in dealers. I was told I had one, was even giving it in writing. things went south and they told me I had nothing. :/

The optional warrant is only available on your base tune correct? And from what I've read on here the power made from that turn is pretty horrible. Not trying to bash but 370s can make that kind of power n/a
