Meh, they don't care anymore since they already know I'm parting out their kit, the very last time I tried to get this problem resolved with them they told me I will not be getting anymore updates also said the install might be bad or something is wrong with my engine. They told me the only option I have is to bring the car down to them and have them look at it.(fyi, my car been down there twice already)then they go and tell's me that if they find nothing wrong or bad install they gonna charge me for the tear down and time working on it. I've been there twice already and if it was a bad install why or how in the world they did not catch that? I don't get it? So, finally I decided to just let everything go without a fight and sell that POS. I've posted it up over at the370z and there were lot's of interests but when the people that were interested in it goes and call up Stillen trying to ask questions about it and guess what Stillen tells them? Don't buy his kit! it will not fit the Z and tried to use that chance and sell them a new kit instead. I then talked to Kyle about it fitting the Z. He said the only thing that won't fit the Z is some brackets and needs some spacers for the front strut bar. Those dumb sales guy screwed up my potential buyers. That's why I'm so furious now. There was a guy with a G that was really interested in it and was this close to buying it off of me but the guy lives in CA and need's that CARB, so I called up Stillen again and asked about is the CARB transferable or not. They say it might be and the new owner will have to pay for the inspection and tunes from Stillen. That's BS, I bought the CARB kit and whoever I sell it to should be able to get that CARB without questions asked. I think they only want to make more money. Alright enough of this BS. I'm done with them and moving on to *** soon.
For everybody that's getting this kit, just be aware that you may get some detonation when you're heat soaked and to Stillen that's considered normal. Get off the throttle when you hear that. Good luck with it.

sorry to hear this Weiboy718 , after all as you said most companies are only running after money.

The problem is they shipped out a poor final product to many people. If they do it to one person then everyone is going to want to return the supercharger that bought it. It's a tough spot for them, but they need to man up to it. I say they get rid of their locked tune and let people do a custom tune.

) .... Trying other experienced tuners should not void all warranty or CARB certificate if it actually works. There are many other capable tuners and shops in the world.But another thing that may have been pushing them is that GTM's kit was also coming available... so maybe that's another reason they released the kit before everything was completely up to par. So they wouldn't seem too far behind GTM's S/C.

hey guys lets take it easy here. I think this thread is starting to wonder alittle to how hard we can hit stillen. Josh has told me before that if a customer has a problem then they deal with them directly not over a forum. With that I agree with.

Sorry... Let's bring it back. Hopefully there will be no problems with your kit, but if anything does go wrong I hope Josh and Stillen will take care of you. Maybe you should get that in writing ahead of time. Lol
Hey OP, when do you plan on installing, tuning and having the car completed?

With GTM you talk to the guy that builds the kit. The guy that dies the research the guy the builds the tunes. The only down side with Sam is that all thus takes alot of his time. I know his wife wishes it did nit lol.
