you get torque from off idle all the way to about 6 grand,you will not get the rush that a cent sc or a turbo gets thats whats dif about a roots sc,just try and remember what stock felt like compared to now.

The stillen does have a very impressive Torque curve though.
True, but at the same time you'll never be able to spray NOS like you could with a vortec or procharger unless you do a direct port setup. Superchargered engines love NOS! Now that will create a very impressive torque curve!

i had stage 3 for about a year and it delivered around 320whp. it starts kicking early like at 2000rpm however maximum boost comes in late at redline. the torque was unbelievable. the car responded great at the high end and when i exceeded 60mph ,, however, when i got my light stillen flywheel , the response in the take off got much better. now i am on stage 4: Torque is unbelievable at any speed, i did not dyno but it pulls hard and it feels definitely around 350whp. here we run on 98 octane. Stillenclaims that the power of stage 4 is around 440-450 crank hp which means itis probably 350-380 whp. but what i know is that the m3 is 340 hp and 278whp , and i blew him as if he was standing still so i must be around 350whp to kill him that way.

if any one's still following this thread, i re-dyno'd my Stillen Stage 4 SC at the Colorado Dyno Day this past weekend. keep in mind that i live in Colorado, so the altitude is no doubt hurting my #'s. as i've posted before, i'm only making 6 lbs of boost instead of closer to 8-9 that i should be seeing (again, altitude is probably part of the problem). in any event, the car put down 308 hp and 299 tq on a dynopak. torque curve was essentially flat from 2,500 to 6,000 which

K3silk seems like we have the same requirements. Let me know if you are swayed by any of the other systems. I plan on getting out this summer. So that I can get some up close info on the diff systems out.
