Those ***s ripped me off for 800.00 bucks! I have yet to chase them for it. I gave them 800.00 bucks (charges to my credit card) for an Amuse R1 Titan exhaust system. That was in February 04. I waited until July 04, finally getting PISSED. I wanted any exhaust at that point. ended up buying Borla cat back through another seller. Dynamic wont give funds back. Guy over there KNOWs I paid them, but they blame it on computer problems! They 'cant verify whether i paid them or not' . but i have faxed them my credit card statement 10x.
F*ckers!
I dealt with a guy named Nam. be careful! I have to small claims it.....

We were racing at night and after I beat him we pulled over and he told me that when i was pulling away from him that all he saw was white smoke that pretty much clouded his vision when he was behind me. The car still drove quite well but I thought that I would have my mechanic look at it just to make sure. He said that I blew the number 6 ring. The engine was supposed to test at 200psi on the leakdown test but only tested 160psi. At that point I had already ordered my cams and rods and pistons but was not really ready to have them installed as of yet. Well that is where my engine is today at AEBS getting resleaved and re-everything that you can do at this point. After speaking with Dave (AEBS) he says that my engine will be able to handle somewhere between 15-25psi if tuned right. He said that it will be bomb proof. My car has been gone now for about 10 weeks and I miss it dearly. For those of you who have bought a F/I kit (Greddy in my case) its probably good to get this done before or as you are having the kit installed (just to be safe). If I had to do it all over again, I would have probably had this done in the beginning before I had my engine installed.
Oh and by the way, the people that installed my kit used to work for Area 51 and some guy named Kinji from Greddy was also there to assist since they are right down the street. They are pretty knowledgable and gave me a great deal and also. My beef with Greddy is why dont they install thier own kits and tune thier own customers cars. They refer you (localy) to a place called Dynamic Autosport. These guys are cool but thier dyno is not installed as of yet, so therefore they refer you to sp engineering which wants to charge you an arm and a leg.

I will never go to that company and make sure I tell others to do the same.
What is the boost level of the Stillen kits???? they put out less horse power then other kits...... Lowest Turbo kit is the greddy that does about 340WHP @ 5.4......
In order to get that you have to get there stage 3 kit....

I guess that leaves a stock boost Stillen as the only SC that has never blown a Z engine. Has anyone heard otherwise?
