after all that money spent you could have gone TT with a much higher top HP capabilities.

also, SC is the way to go if you want a small power bump and have 7AT and dont want to spend the money to get a built tranny.

Definitely agree, the base Stillen kit is trash.

My car is one pulley upgrade ($100.00) away from 700whp if I want.

I am certainly not going to bash tt's as I love them. I'm not sure what the total cost of a tt set up is but if I started from scratch knowing what I now know about sc'ing, I could build a complete 700whp system for about 13k.

Sc is a good way to make big power on a stock block.

Another warning related to disabling knock sensors popped up on facebook today, signs of detonation if you look at the spark plug.

The author is claiming that he has replaced 4 engines this month all tuned this way, with knock tolerance raised by as much as 300% in some cells for no apparent reason.husam.jpg

It's going to catch up to him eventually.
