OK I am not messing anymore LOL, Just wanted to get some vids for you guys, I have been driving the wifes car, The thing about the SC is something my tuner said also after looking at the vids I sent him. I also looked around some more this morning and found SC fluid all over the back of the SC and engine bay, Drivers side, The fluid was a milky colored, So car is off the the dealer tomorrow AM, Costly better not be, Been on the car for 5 months, Warrenty..
TOWER, It starts blurping at 1800 at clears up and starts again at 2800 or so, The throttle pulls it self back also,
Thanx Weiboy

Kinda sounds similar to what happened when my Maf got wet with water on my old Altima. The CAI filter got pretty soaked during a bad rainstorm enough droplets fouled up the MAF causing it to go into a limp mode on the way home. Couldn't rev above 3000 and was like hitting a rev limiter, had to keep shifting real early.
Dried out the Maf using some Maf cleaner and all was well after that.
Maybe your SC dumped oil back into the intake...

Hmm this sounds very similar to what happened to my friends S/C (vortex) 35. He cleaned this TB's and he said everything was good. You might want to try to clean the TB

Well talked to Stillen just know, Was looking into something eles with them. An talked to them about the issue, He told me sounds like the seal went. Warrenty will cover it.. First thing he asked was "When did you change change the Fluid".. Glad I'm **** about those things, Is said Change it 2500 for the first change and them 7500 after that , Only changed it once The 2500 miles service( March) this year. So I am good,.

Well just got back from the dealer and the car is apart, Fuel pump was fine injectors are fine, MAF's are fine .NO CELs but the car is still making no boost and is SUPER lean,Tech said something like 149 ALFs?? should be 90-109. So Super Charger is off to Stillen on Monday, He also did tell me he say all the fluid in the engine bay.

dude. that sux ballz. I'm sorry to hear you're car is on the operating table...but I'm glad that warranty will cover the SC. I would still be afraid of what the bill will be from the dealership. At least you got a loaner from them...that's always the nice thing about Infiniti dealers, you're never left without a car. Good luck to you and the car!

No bill from the dealer either, They installed it and warrentied it also. Along with my drivetrain warretny was untouched.

Ok so heres the story, The Milky white fluid I told everyone I saw is exactly what Stillen saw, But that means there was WATER in the the SC, FN really how I asked." The vent hole on top of the SC is open, Just a open hole , Not a pressure release or anything just frigging open hole. Some how I got water in it and I PAY!!! Has to be rebuilt, Not really sure how that would happen either way but it is just that Water in it not defective, I have to pay to rebuild it.. They are getting a price on the rebuild now from Vortech, Well see tho how they handle it

ANMVQ, does that mean that everyone running the Stillen Kit has an open hole on the SC? Anybody washing their engine with water better beware. You would think that Stillen would put a warning about the openning?
