I wanna go forced induction one day, gotta find out if the 2010 auto tranny can handle it. But i loooove the sound of superchargers, i dont know why gtm uses that really quiet blower, screw that i would want a max loud blower which drowns out my stereo. I like the look of the stillen kit, congradulations!

quiet blower?????????? have you heard it in person? the Rotrex blowers are pretty loud imo and the Stillen kit is much much quieter than what you think lol. probably the videos made it seem loud. it's actually pretty quiet.

Weiboy is right, with the hood closed and sitting in the cockpit you can hear the whine but it is not very loud. It does sound good. You won't hear it hardly at all with your stereo on at normal levels. The blowers these days (in both the Stillen and GTM kit) are much quieter than older models but the good thing is that part of the reason they are is because they are so well built IMO.

It's intercooled. Just not the typical type that others will use.

The intercooler is built inside the plenum where coolant is pumped into it and back out to the heat exchanger to cool down the liquid. It is called air to water intercooler. The design was to cool down the charge air at the very last possible second before it enters the engine.

Actually, this is quite common approach.
But one of the problems with this kit seems to be caused by the location of air temperature sensor. It's built in the MAF sensor and measures temperature of the air right after the filter. The right way is to measure temperature of air that is going to the cylinders. So, this sensor should be located after the intercooler. Somewhere near MAP sensor...

the sensors should be after the blower imo. The ecu is always getting the wrong info because it's reading a lot cooler up front then after it passes the blower the air changed and the ecu just doesn't know how to compensate it. It's confused, I bet you must have minor idle problems, car stalling out and driveability issues. Much more noticeably after you run it hard and hot

Not only after the blower but right before injectors/cylinders. Somewhere near MAP sensor that is located on the intake manifold.

No idle problems. No stalling. Yes, I have some problems but I'm sure that I'll resolve it soon.
