i would infer that it would be out around the same time the tt kits are out.

I dont think it will hurt. A TT and a SC are two different animals IMO. Those that want a SC are only looking for a modest gain in hp/tq but those that want a TT are looking for huge gains. I only want around 80 more hp/tq with a SC so that hopefully it will be more of a install and forget mod. A TT would need constant tweaking IMO. I will be waiting and watching to see how the SCs do and thier reliability and if all goes well have one in a yr after they have it all worked out and reliable. But I would like to know what type it will be now if possible.

I am hoping its not a roots type blower like the one for the 350z. I am hoping they use the TVS/rotex system or similar as it looks great on paper! HKS and GTM are using it with very impressive results. If Stillen is going this route we can definitly expect up to 450 rwhp and 375 tq. I am willing to wait and see what Stillen has to offer before I choose which way to go. I was at first all over the idea of going twin turbo with AAM but the more I talked with them the more extensive the project was going to be and the cost went from 10K to 15K really quick and I got cold feet and walked away. After taking a step back I truly feel a well designed supercharger system will more than satisfy my ND4SPD. I have been very happy with all of my Stillen mods, so much i display it proudly on my windshield, so most likely thier new supercharger will ultimatly end up under my hood.

if they go with a tvs im going to be kinda pissed off. I bought the Harrop TVS 1320 for my cobalt, worked awesome, but i ended up selling it 2 months after i got it so i could get a 370z..lol

They've already gone with it so lets just see which centrifugal unit they give us (there better be at least two).

I am glad Stillen can't fit the roots style blower. Plus I love the sound of the TVS Centrifugal blower, it sounds like a huge turbo minus the bllow off sounds. I refuse to change out the hood to accomodate the blower. I personally did not like the available choices. Twin chargers would be sweet but it cost as much as TT setup. It will be interesting to see how they and GTM run the piping from dual intakes to the Intercooler and to the compressor.

TVS is not a centrifugal supercharger.
Its a new roots design from
Eaton.
