Stillen Supercharger owners please Help!
Stillen Stage III owners please Help.
350z owners with stillen superchargers please help me out. I just purchased a 2003 350z with a Stillen Stage III with intercoller it also has a stillen CAI with Greddy catback exhaust. My question is what can I do next to add horsepower? What can be done for the fuel system, Headers, smaller pulley? Let me know where I should go next with this already stout car.

Build up the engine. That can get you more ponies. your probably already pushing the max psi on that stillen super charger. Most people who go first for super chargers after a couple of years they change it out for TT/build.
+1 That's about all you can do for the Stillen. Keep in mind for say a used Utec, injectors, fuel pump and a meth kit along with a tune you are looking at around $2000 for about 20-30whp. The stage 4 upgrade I believe adds another injector but I have heard the smaller pulley just blows more hot air. If it were me I would just be happy with what you have because the cost to do anything is just too much for too little of a gain. I have never driven a Z with a Stillen but I'm sure the sound is cool and the low end power must be somewhat fun. If you are looking to step things up a bit you really should look into another kit.

It was sarcasm but truthful. There isnt much you can do with a Stillen kit other than get a different FI kit. They just dont put down much power.
Heeeeer we go!!!
I enjoy, and will keep my Stillen setup because it suits my power needs for the small amout of time my Z see on the road each year. But others are correct. You aren't gonna get big power out of it without spending more money then it would take to get a TT setup.
So if you wanna hang with any of the big boys sell it and go turbo. Otherwise accept what you have, and be happy beating stock Rustangs and most NA Zs.
<-----is gonna try to stay out of this one from this point and let Doug handle this.

Also, there's a good change that exhaust is hurting you. This setup is supposed to run best with stock exhaust, headers, cats, etc. due to the nature of the blower.
wow Doug, again you are soooo helpful, yet completely wrong.
Explain to me and the OP how a proper ems that can control timing and then meth which will allow more timing and lower AIT wont give more HP. I 100% guarantee your response will not address that simple question yet make some personal attack.
We all know you hate Stillen and Turbonetic. So get over it and stop reading those posts if they agitate you so much. The OP did not ask about getting a new setup. If that's the only advice you can ever give, don't bother replying as its not helpful nor relevant.

Stillen Supercharger... the best NA mod money can buy. 
What are your power goals? I have worked with a couple Stillen kits and they work but are not the ticket for big power. If you are trying to pick up a few horsepower there are options, but if you want 400+whp it is time to look at other forced induction options.

FYI i'm not agitated.. i'm simply here to educate.. BTW.. how many Stillen Kits have you got extra HP out of with a different EMS and Meth?
