Nissan Stillen 370Z - 500+ HP Review

I don't think weiboy is doing anything wrong or trying to trick anyone. I'm sure the kit is in fine condition and anyone who's been on this forum knows theyre going to have to get the tune just right or it won't work correctly.

hahahaha! eventually it'll sell and i will tell them the truth as in why i'm parting it out.

everybody that pm's me i will tell them to go get a fully custom tune that is made for their car and it will be absolutely perfect.

I would do this regardless. I take it your issue was with the stillen canned tune? I believe RCZ had his custom tuned as well after some sub-400 numbers, he's at about 430whp now.

Do you no-longer want a supercharged car? You have the perfect supercharged car right now. What changed your mind about owning a supercharged Z?

corrected! i have a G lol.

it's a perfect kit just not running as perfect as you think. i live in CA and the laws here are very strict. the reason why i haven't gotten a full custom tune is cuz it'll void CARB, i'm not willing to take that risk and end up getting a state ref ticket and getting something pokey up my @$$ later on so i rather just take a hit and just sell it. return back to stock and call it a day. i may just trade in the car and get something that is F.I'ed from stock. i wouldn't have to worry about getting it carbed or whatever.

Makes sense. I don't know how people can stand to live in Kali with all the firearm/car/etc. regulations.

Woah, where did you get this information? I have only had one tune and it made 390 (from 256 stock) on a mustang dyno and 455 on a dynojet.

Stillen kit works great, some people had problems with their Stillen-provided tunes for whatever reason, but I have had 0 problems with my custom tune so far.

My mistake, I thought I had read that regarding your two different dyno numbers. Regardless I still believe if you have access to a dyno and a competent tuner it's the proper route to go. As you said yourself, you have no issues but others do for whatever reason.
