Default Stiilen in DSport Magazine

Hope this is not a repost but Stillen is claiming or the author is claiming 329 whp @ 7psi for the Stage 3 supercharger. Article is somewhat good but young lady is attractive. I know we beat the HP numbers for Stillen in the ground, but it is here in black and white.

I read that, problem is the silver pulley..... I don't think any year Stillen kit uses a silver pulley for stage 3, silver should be stage 4.

The thing that sucks about the stillen stage 3 & 4 kits is that they're not 50 state carb legal. The only FI that's 50 state carb legal right now is Vortech, and Stillen stage 1&2 which gains a measly 50-70 hp at best. God I wish JWT would get their TT kit carb legal soon...

On an unrelated note Lisa Flemming is a hottie posing with that car for the magazine.

I do not understand why the Stage 3 is not Carb legal. What makes it not able to be Carb legal with such a small increase in power.

I asked Steve Millen that question and he said .it was a cost consideration. They would have to pay per stage to get cert. Stage 3 should pass a tail pipe test no prob it just doesnt have the cert. Does someone out there have any idea what a business pays to get their product carb certfied?
