I may have missed this info in reviewing this very long thread but do you have any notion of how this kit effects the less than optimal 53/47 weight distribution of our car?

As I understand from my communication with Stillen, reducing turbulence at the filter is only important as it may reduce turbulence at the MAF's. If you look closely at the kit the distance from the...

kellyefields,
What led you to make this airbox? Were you having the same drivability problems as we are describing here?

Can you provide photos of the solution you came up with?
Thanks.

I agree. I test drove two 2010 Z06's before I bought my Z. When I first drove it after having the Stillen SC installed the first word to describe the power that came to mind was "brutal."

Hard to believe you will be the first with the GTM Twin SC. Hope they give you a discount just to get it out there.

SS - Nice that the wife gives a s**t about keeping up with anyone. I for one will be looking forward to your reports on the GTM Twin SC set up. Looks amazing, and looks like a very involved install.

Thanks swiss370Z. Just as a curiosity, have you been retested for Swiss emissions control standards? Since all of the mods were completed?
