Default Vortech vs Stillen?

I was thinking about buying the Greddy TT in the near furture but I have heard a lot of good stuff about Vortech vs Stillen. I wanted to know which one is better and easy to maintain? Which one gives you the most power? Do any Infiniti dealers install SC? Would I loose my warrenty?

I'm trying to learn the most about TT's and SC's, I can't afford to blow my engine!

Depends what you want.

Stillen for low end torque
Vortech for higher end HP
Greaddy TT most high end HP of the FI options you listed.

Stillen SC is the easiest to install, then Vortech SC, the Greddy TT.

Stillen Stage 2 can be purchased with a 3 year, 36,000mi warranty. As far as losing your factory warranty, it depends on the dealer and if they think the SC or TT caused the problem.

Any other questions? Hope this reply helped.

if you want all out hp numbers, greddy tt or power enterprise tt will give you the path to creating big horsepower numbers.
However you will need to build up your motor with new sleeves, piston and rods to obtain that.

If you take the Turbo kits in stock format, the power is all right but you spent a grip of money for good but not great power.

With the superchargers, ATI or Vortech you will get more good riveable hp and for the money a better deal. The superchargers require less maintenance than the turbos. The Stillen kit is the nice but it requires you to replace your hood... the Vortech does make more hp out of the box and does not require modification of your hood.

The cost difference is roughly 2000-3000 bucks between turbos and supercharger after the kit and basic installation without any tuning.

Which kit to go with comes down to what you do with the car. If you HDPE the car then supercharger is better b/c you get linear power. If you drag the car turbo will be better b/c you can get more power. If you want to bling and show off turbo with a nasty BOV is cool...

So bro it's really up to you which direction to go... Either way will be sick.

I have heard that you can put a nice BOV on the Vortech kit, but not the stillen. I like the sound of the BOV so now I am leaning toward the Vortech.
