This going on for a 4 month period.

After your tuning department said its an install error, I gave up on you guys.

After a local tune, the car drove prefect and idled perfect,

I think I have the right to be a bit facetious, don't you?

Maybe things have change since then, if so, great!
I'm sorry to hear that and I understand your frustrations. I'm not sure when this all went down, but we have been working hard on such issues and our tuner has done a great job.

I know things with our tunes were not good for a while and I won't deny that, but we have been committed to fixing it and I'm glad you were able to get your car working well.

Thought you said you guys fixed your tunes :/ A 323 WHP after spending 9k WOW!! Sound like my tune from 3 years ago


Updates! 395 hp and 293 tq on a Dyno Dynamics. The googles (and tuner) said they read pretty low compared to dynojets.

So I had 323 hp on the baseline pull with the stillen tune. It was running at an afr of 9:1 WOT..... Thanks a bunch stillen, that is some horse s***.

That is pretty disappointing. I put down similar numbers with just my bolt-ons and had maybe a third that much money in it. At least it makes decent power with a real tune.

Turbo is the way to go

That's not always the case. It's all about your goals and needs.

IMO Stillen S/C look nice, and give a different application.

Turbo's will make more power for our VQ's, but both will put a smile on our faces. I had both, and both did it's purpose.

People that want a more DIY project. and having that wow factor at the local car show. Stillen is actually a good option. What I would like to see is a stillen s/c with a 100shot.
