and if you're going to criticism the stillen kit, you do realize there's a stillen thread for that, right? why would you come to this thread to for that? hmmm

I saw your second post, but I just wanted to answer two questions that you posed.
Firstly, I may be new to this forum, but I am certainly not new to the modification arena or Nissan products. (it should also be obvious as to why I am new to the 370Z forum...if not, it is because I recently traded my GT-R for a 370Z. Had no real need to be on this forum until now)
To date I have:
a - modified a 2005 Infiniti G35 using Vortech's bolt on kit
b - modified a 2003 350Z with built shortblock and GReddy twins netting over 600rwhp
c - modified a 2006 Pathfinder with the Stillen SC kit
d - modified a 2009 GT-R using Cobb AP and custom tune netting 500awhp
e - modified a 2010 370Z Nismo...with ?? (remains to be seen)
Given my past experience, I am fully qualified to discuss past and current F/I kits, be it the Stillen or GTM. I am certainly not trying to be condescending towards any member of this forum, more so I am trying to educate others based on my experiences. Isn't that what these forums are all about? Sharing knowledge with one another so those of us who pioneered F/I on the VQ platform with our hard-earned money can pass on the hard lessons learned to those who are up-and-coming? If not, I will certainly "beat it" as you request.
Secondly, I have no desire to bring any of my opinions or facts of the past or present Stillen kit into their thread. I respect the vendor threads and have no desire to poison them. I admit I got sucked into posting more in this thread than I should have...but, in my own defense, it all started with me merely posting pictures of engine bays. My post was only meant to show the aesthetic sides of things as I saw them. Both were public pictures and not trade secrets.
