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

I thought it was always a Vortech blower.

We continued to adjust the VVEL, fuel, and timing tables after this initial pull. I'm confident the car would make even more power on a cool run at this point. However by the time the tuning session was totally complete the heatsoak was robbing us of roughly 15-20hp peak power, but with the additional VVEL tuning we were making more power everywhere else on the graph.

Yes this kit uses the V3-SCi trim blower. The 928Motorsport impeller does not fit this particular blower. Vortech however has a factory upgrade impeller that is larger than the one included in the out of the box stillen kit. This impeller seems to make good power increase over the 928Motorsport impeller, which we have also tuned, that puts out around 420-430whp.

It is and always will be a Vortech blower, there's just not much left that is Stillen about this particular kit outside of the intake manifold and their bracket


Thanks for the comments and questions guys!
