Question Need help to select parts for a build

Hey guys,

After a long time of reading and looking here I feel ready to start getting my parts for my build.

I have a 2014 370Z Nismo, here what i want to to:

1. Stillen supercharger
2. Flax fuel system (also support E85)
3. Ecutek tune with maps to support flex fuel

I need some help to find a good flax fuel system, I was wondering if anyone did something like I try to do and can give me a good kit for the flax fuel.

Also can I do damage to my car by installing the SC and the flax full system with out the ecutek? I am will like to do the build my self and get it tuned after a week or so, this car is my DD and this is why I am asking.

Thanks guys!

Because it is my DD I am more looking for usable power than a crazy build, I will say somewhere at the 500-600 will be grate.

Stolen advertises 480-520 I think. Which is a huge gap. And it's crank horsepower. Google is your friend. To the wheels your prob around 400-420 is a guess

I was talking crank , I know with ecutek tune you can get around 120hp from the kit and with E85 I think it is possible to get some more.

Even with e85 i don't think you're gonna get far with the Stillen kit. The kit itself will be your main limitation because of the way it was design. Might as well go BP single turbo which is around the same price, great kit and room to grow down the line. Believe me you'll want more boost after a while who ever tell you otherwise is lying.

This. The stillen kit is a dead end that will blow your motor unless you go to an air to air intercooler and throw out everything stillen gives you except the blower.

There is a whole thread on here on how Shi$$ty the stillen kit is. FOr 7 grand go with the BP kit. I would listen to all the above. You saying you want 600hp out the kit is like saying I want 500hp out my NA
