Default stillen supercharger...

I am currently in the process of saving my coins for an FI upgrade of some sort but I am have trouble making my mind up as to which system to go with. I am curious about the stillen supercharger for the 03's. Does anyone have one of these on their ride? If so how is your overall satisfaction with it? I can't seem to find any review on the product.

This S/C is a descent kit. It all depends on what you are wanting out of your car and what your budget is.

I really like the Stillen kit cause it seems very safe with a minimal amount of hassle. That said the gains aren't going to be sky high but it's definetly a big improvement over stock... I am still debating whether I should go all out NA or just throw the Stillen kit on.

I have the Stillen Stage III and I love it. It's not the fastest out there, but mine suits me just fine. Oh and its on an 03' Touring with 24k miles.

Any Sc has problem's at first. Go stage 2 and up grade to stage 3.

been a member here for a while, well even 6 months before i got my car. Research after research i thought i wanted the Greddy TT before it was even released.

After it was released, i decided that since i am pretty young, and this car is my daily driver, i dont want to risk the chance of blowing my motor. I know that the kit can be made safe, but i dont have the cash for this....

I decided to just get the Stillen sc Stage 2, and go ***** out with the rest.. full supension.Tein Flex W/edfc/ Custom radar Valentine HIDDEN with remote display, Stoptech 14.1" BBk 4 Wheel Kit, exhaust, y pipe, sway bars, Volk Gram Light Pro 57F 19" 2 piece wheels Custom order from japan. took 4 months... (be here for xmas)

So i guess it was hopeful thinking before i realized how much it would cost just for the Turbo, and i was very nurvious of blowing or screwing up my engine....

Good looking car. Turbo's are nice and you can't beat the power, but the supercharger has that Indy car whine that is just perfect.

All the FI systems are reliable..... Stillen no more than the others. You never have enough Power. You will see. You want the same acceleration as 2 Big @ss Pratt and Whitney turbofans when you push the power levers foward??? You need Turbo power for that !!!!

Respect

LOL ! True. I should custom make a Pratt & Whitney kit for the Z. It would include to semi-monocoque bodys as a body kit to sustain one single Pratt & Whitney Jet Engine on top of the roof. It may lag a bit at the beggining though. LOL

Nice to see you around again Jet.
