Thanks for posting thezmonster!

We've been dropping info to you guys quicker than we have the general media, but did our due diligence today and got the official release together.

You guys have been getting up to the minute and very detailed info.. we're happy to keep that going for you guys..

OK, who has one?

I would like some opinions. Even though we had twin turbos in our old z32, I think we are ready for a supercharger! I love the power and the sound. Plus, it is easier to install and more cost effective. Oh, and you can see it clear as day. Sweet! :eek2:

What? What did I say wrong? :icon14:

I'm looking for an easier install and just plain ol' simple "charge of power." Yes, the turbos will give more power, but we really don’t want to drag with this car or even track it (not yet at least.) A single supercharger that I can actually get to is something we rather have. Plus, we never had a supercharger before. Just want something different and looks good (with a lot of power.) I have not heard of any bad things about superchargers for the z34.

This is the reason for asking. Let me know your opinions.

I will sell u my stillen supercharger but u might want to search for all the failed results and problems with this supercharger first. Check out the gtm supercharger much better customer service and support.

It might actually be of a benefit to you if you even look in the Forced Induction section; there are major threads regarding every single supercharger kit out and each of those threads have 100's of pages of relevant information.

Hint: there is not a whole lot of positive press out on the Stillen kit at this moment either.

Um yeah, that may just be a good idea for me to do. I'll look in the FI sections.

Thanks for the obvious. :rolleyes: I’m going there in a few. Sometimes I really don’t think. I think I was asking for personal opinions, but I bet there are a lot in the FI sections.

Thanks Christian!

OK, now I know what I did wrong. :shakes head:

OK, I checked and I read the FI about Stillen's supercharger, especially your issues. I see you can't wait for tune #8, but i bet that is because you have your hands tied some. I do feel bad for your situation. I do. I worked on computer hardware at Blue Cross Blue Shield here in SC, and I can tell you that anything that is really complicated like an ecu/cpu has a mind of its own sometimes.

Anyway, I would not tune our car with a supercharger or turbos. I would have a specialist do it who is also certified dealer. I rather have the tune on the certified dealer's shoulders than on mine. That's why I would pay to have this mod done. Just like all our complicated mods for our car. If I don’t fully understand how something works, then if I work on it, I keep my fingers crossed.

(Note, I did not read anything about a certified specialist/dealer working on your supercharger) I’m not saying that it was not in the threads, I’m just saying I did not see it. If I missed it, then it is my bad.

I actually would purchase your used but “good” supercharger. I saw you posted that suggestion before. I did not see anyone hop on your offer. Did you give a price? I truly believe that you are a very honest person, because you are warning me of your supercharger even though you would like to sell it. So, that tells me you would make a horrible used car salesmen.

Thanks for all your posts on this subject. :tup:

Wow Dean, really pushing the envelope huh? Would be crazy if we could get the S/C on by sema. You might want to talk to Stillen b/c if your going to sema, they will probably help out and you can do the custom tune.

We were really hesitant on the targa. SO much could go wrong with this mod. We were assured that it would be just fine. Well, we are looking into the SC with Z1 Motorsports. They have something up there sleeve and we are not sure of what it is. With all the bad news, and then some very recent good news with the SC dilemma, we may just get it done. We will know in a week. I am glad I read those posts. Stillen is a great company, but sometimes things do have unanticipated bugs. I.e. Microsoft’s OS. If the hardware is perfect, then the software just needs tuned. ;)
