Team Stillen,

Can you speak to the on-track testing you have done with the supercharger kit? I'm very interested in getting a kit, but I'm also very reluctant about trying to go FI with this platform. In my experience, a day at the track (road course) ferrets out all the weak points in a car. I trust that you have done some on-track testing, so can you speak to the reliability of the car at the track?

Specifically, my reservations surround the cooling (for both the fluids and the brakes), and the stability of the electrical system (in reference to holding the tuned map, and not glitching out and throwing tons of timing/fuel when the sensors/ecu gets hot). Have you datalogged track sessions? Have you seen how much timing gets pulled throughout a session?

I'm not so interested in the longevity of the daily-driven kits you have out there since your kit doesn't see full boost until the top of the RPM range, so a bunch of people racking up miles, shifting at 5K are only seeing a few psi. That's why I'm asking about track sessions where you shift at redline, with your supercharger producing the full 8-9psi, ALL DAY LONG. Can it handle it? Thanks in advance, I appreciate your honest input.
