2. This kit bolts up to the existing Stillen super charger correct?
Thanks

I was running stock Stillen kit along with 2.87" serpentine side jackshaft pulley and the car puts down 440whp on a Dynojet. I have all the A2A goodies installed and am awaiting tuning. Prior to the A2A conversion I have already riden my SCed Z for almost 7000-mile DD. I enjoyed every day with it. : ) With regards to your questions:
1. Yes. I have witnessed many Zs running over 485whp in stock internals
no issues.
2. Yes but it depends on whether your mechanic is skillful in the Stillen SC kit.
Mine has few minor issues in installation but my mechanic solved them quickly.
I was barely informed of any concern from my mechanic. TopgunZ's kit is a
solid work and worthy investment (maybe because I have done lots of
homework and have everything well prepared based on the discussions
with several forum members before I decided to go this route).
3. Tuning is a dark magic and for me it plays almost most significant role in car
performance. Find a reputed tuner and get a safe and reliable tuning. Don't
try going too far then you will be fine. Please be sure to collect all the supporting mods
in addition to the kit. I am super excited about the upcoming results. :-")
