Everything is going great here! He asked about the Stillen SC so I just gave my feedback lol. The Greddy TT kit always makes more power than the SC but I understand the decision to go with the SC as its quite a bit cheaper and can make mid 400s.

I think the new hotness for turbo kits however will be the Fast Intentions!

Fast forward few months and its the same car but I'm used to it and now I want more.

lol...exactly. If I keep trying to make an already fast car faster I'll never stop. Plus after I get the Z to a respectable range I want to purchase a more luxury oriented vehicle. I was thinking a CTS V.

500 rwhp is the sweet spot for these cars,I only had 470 rwhp on my 2010 and yes I wanted more ,then I traded it in and put the same kit and got 516 rwhp and I could get more if I wanted it but my car is fast enough and b/c the SC's power is just like stock just higher it is very perdicable it is just like driving a powerful V8.

I too have been thinking of the Stillen SC. I would love to jump on the Fast Intention TT kit since I'm not far from Tony's shop. The one big thing that pushes me to the Stillen SC is the 50 state CARB legal. I'm in Cali so that's a huge selling point for me.

Just keep in mind that the CARB-legal kit has not blown people's socks off. Only with a custom tune has the Stillen SC been shown to make good power.

This is true. Also a lot of supercharged cars have new headers or HFCs or both to get those higher hp numbers and stillens own HFCs aren't carb legal.

This is the myth most people still can't seem to get past.

Ya I know, right now I have the gen 3's along with the FI HFC and exhaust. I'm at 305 HP on a dinojet no tune. Good for my DD. I'm not looking to compete with everyone on the forums for HP numbers, you know that always gonna be a loosing battle. Lol
