(Kinda like its hesitating, when I'm trying to go consistent speeds, 25mph, 30mph, etc) once I hit 55 the problem goes away 100%.
My car did the same thing at low speeds with the Stillen tune because they had it way rich to be safe since they can't dyno it. When I gave up and got it tuned on a dyno we did a couple pulls to see where it was and it was in the 310s HP at best. After tuning it's at 406 HP 302 TQ and all the goofy feel to the throttle/motor is gone. You spent a lot of money for HP that you are most likely not going to get letting Stillen do the tuning. My car on the Stillen tune vs the dyno are day and night different!

I agree about the tune, but I don't think anyone can really tune a car from across the country.I love the kit now that it has a good tune on it! I just don't understand why people here feel the need to be negative on someones post about their car. Maybe my comments about the tune came off negative but I was trying to help the OP resolve his issues with his car. What help is "Stillen sucks" when he already has the kit on his car?

As much as that kit heatsoaks, you might want to look into meth as well.

Sounds like you've done this before !

What would your input and advice be when I talk this over with the shop...?
Not keen on the meth though...but will keep it in mind.

Thanks ! Bob

Take a look at ANMVQ (I think)'s stillen build. He had done just about everything you could do on that kit and got some decent numbers.

wasnt he pushing more than 9psi?

i remember he had custom pulleys and everything, plus this build made more power than ANMVQ's build

Motion Lab Tuned Nismo 484whp/400wtq @ 12.5psi w/ Vortech impeller on the Stillen S/C

besides the point, i dont think the 9lb pulley stillen makes will cause any problems with the kit, and if it does cause heating issues, the bigger heat exchanger should fix that

Hey guys,

thanx for remember my build for one, I don't wast the $$ on the pulley I upgraded the SC impeller and on the stock pulley was running 11 PSI, I did make very good numbers 457 WHP and 330 WTRQ and yes on a X coupe. For the three days I drove it at the WHP the car was SILLY,

I also went with a larger heat exchanger from Frozen Boost.com.( The Sitllen one is rediclous ! bolts the radiator?) UPREV MAF's and 750 CC injectors and DW300 fuel pump.

This HOW fast is spooled with Impeller upgrade, Listen how fast it hits 11PSI !

I thought you did a pulley swap as well as the impeller swap

That's sick to know a impeller swap will increase boost with the stock stillen pulley.
How come you went with the upgraded mafs? If you don't mind me asking.

The Dealer F'd the pulley set up broke sh$t and bent things so I tool them off all together, Just the Impeller upgrade

The hood is a one off "made for me" By Alex and Autokits X.. It considerably lower the under hood temps , I Would see heat waves

Nice G37x (I have one as well - now my DD with some 'cosmetic' enhancements)

May I ask as to the specifics of the impeller upgrade ???

My kit has the Vortech V3 and so far I haven't been able to nail down the right impeller.

Contacted 928motorsports and also Vortech ...
Need to know the directional airflow CW or CCW ...

Still waiting to hear from Vortech...

The car is just about to go into the shop...

Thanks,

Bob

Stillen couldn't answer this question?

Based on the the piping is it almost has to be CCW unless yours and mine are different.

The impeller upgrade through Vortech is $395 plus shipping. It will bring the Stillen Vortech SCi unit up to a Si flow level (9.52% more) and increase boost throughout the rpm band. I went with Vortech since it is "OEM" and in this case I felt more comfortable with that. Let's hope they don't f it up.
