As for the Stillen tune from what ive heard the new tune is not that bad

Maybe i was expecting more as the numbers i was told were different than what really expected
I was told 450 to 500 but im guessing that is at the crank now vs BHP

450 -500 WHP on a SC your motor will most likely pop Too much boost to make that number! I was at 11-12 PSI and 460ish WHP motor gave up.
Their kit BPH is 515, WHP tuned and custom tune and custom tune only will net you low 400's.

it all depends on the blower, the rotrex's don't quite switch into full on hairdryer mode like the vortechs do at high boost that is why they typically run more power without popping.

I posted this a week ago but didn't get much response. But this dyno was done at Stillen. Some things to consider as you can see in my post. 3rd gear pulls and no fan. My HP numbers seem on track considering, but my TQ numbers seem low. Did you ask what gear they were testing in? It's hot as balls in SoCal so that doesn't help. Did they use a fan at all? Everything adds up.

Did a baseline dyno today!

Wow, when you posted that I didn't realize it was at Stillen. Maybe they aren't changing the canned tune because of the CARB stuff you have to meet?

And 3rd gear pulls?

You WHP should be at worst 400 and QTRQ should be right around 300. 3rd gear is the wrong gear.

We have been changing the canned tunes recently. Any supercharger kit after April 2014 has our new tunes. We had an IPL in Florida make 429 whp with a stock IPL exhaust (auto).



On Cali 91 Octane Gas 2013 G37 Coupe with STILLEN Supercharger and Exhaust. Smog legal tune on a 95 degree day.



STILLEN 370Z with STILLEN Supercharger and STILLEN Exhaust (80 degrees) 91 Octane CARB Legal Tune.

These are 3rd gear pulls because 4th gets going too fast.

I heard Stillen was working on the Supercharger system that will make more power. Is this what i've been hearing? A better tune?

as I am also , But the canned tune I had only made 40 more WHP than my bolted tune. I'm just curious too , why did you emphasize smog legal tune ?
Just because we get a custom tune doesn't mean it's not smog legal. I got my sticker on my 412 WHP custom tune.
Get work in changing the canned tunes

I thought I had seen on here that you had to use there tune to pass so I was just guessing at what could cause it to be lower. We don't have to test our cars for anything here so I have no clue what the testing requires.

I didn't have to use their tune, I was on the custom tune when I passed smog in MA, Testing is ODII hook up( Data Reader) and tailpipe sniffer. They used to use a rollers here in MA ( Not sure they still do) as I have a AWD and never had to worry about being put on rollers because of the AWD
