I had a Stillen SC installed a few months back and they removed my grounding kit. They kind of laughed at it. Does anyone have a Stillen and still has the grounding kit on? Please post a pic. I want to reinstall mine but want to see what others are doing.

 

If you like the grounding kit put it on back on. You cares what other people think. Do they make your car payments? Tell them to lick you **** if they don't like it.


With that said, I am considering putting on a grounding kit....not because I think it will add hp, but I keep seeing posts about how much better the car idles. My car blips up and down a lot.....

 

I had it on before and want to put it back on. They only problem is some of the bolt locations are gone because I have no plenum. I was hoping to see what others had done. I agree about the engine idle and I also like what it adds to my engine bay.

By the way, I just finished installing my Stillen Engine Damper a few minutes ago. Next is the short shifter then a wash and begin the CF Veilside V1 install.

It very rainy today. Why not work in the garage. Sunday is gonna be sunny at 55 here.

 

I had a 3 wire kit on for a while. 1 wire from the pass. side grounding point up front to the front of the timing cover. 1 wire from the battery to the timing cover and the last from the back right of the stillen plenum, where the evap solenoid and grounding wire for the stillen piggyback is hooked up, also going to the timing cover. I removed them a while back because they interfered with my strut bar.

 

Do you have the Stillen Strut?

 

yes, but I had to send it to someone with a bigger oven than I have to powdercoat it for me, so it is off right now.

 

2003, would u be able to take a picture and show us where we could mount all 3 wires, even better 6 wires.

i also have a few other questions for u that arent related to this post, so ill just bug u next time u go on aol.

 

here is my engine. If anyone could help me that would be great!

 

this should help

 

2003z do u have the picture of ur engine w/ the grounding kit? Any ideas where the rest of the wires (3) could go?

 

since BOTH hard drives on my computer just crashed 2 days ago, I only have this old picture from my laptop. the cables are red.

 

Can someone tell me the function of the tubing the red arrow identifies?

I have seen a few other peoples engine bay pics and they all seem to have substantially thicker tubing there. My kit has very thing tubing, I would worry that proper flow is not achieved.

Thanks

 

you are fine with thinner tubing. That is the vacuum actuated valve for the boost bypass. There is a flapper valve in the intake that allows air to bypass the compressor section when not under boost, like cruising on the hiway, and that valve controls it. Thats why we get the same mileage on the freeway as before FI.

 

bump...anyone know where i could connect 6 grounding cables,?
