I dunno i'm pretty confused on this whole thing. since they didn't release the trim they may be using a Vortech VTS unit especially considering the new manifold, water to air intercooler, lack of photos and general reluctance to leak info. If it is it all makes sense because in their shoes considering the amount of negative backlash against the 350z roots kit, i would wait until all the power figures where in before posting up the final decision. my guess is the move to set the release date back into march is just in case the vts doesn't pan out and a new kit designed around the centrifugal has to be made.
the main points for this argument are the new manifold especially considering GTM pulled it off easily with the stock one. As for the hood concerns, the 350z kit was made utilizing the stock lower intake manifold so the height was increased. if they remade that piece to make the unit sit lower it could be possible to make it all fit. besides using a positive displacement blower and making it all work would allow stillen to save face on the shortcomings of the 350z unit.
