Stillen Supercharger in California
 

I have a question and I even left a message for Stillen, but no answer yet. I am looking to getting into a 2015+ nismo in the near future and want to supercharge it with the Stillen Supercharger setup because I live in California and well... You know Cali and the ridiculous smog laws... So I read that Stillen's superchargers are CARB legal in 50 states for models 2008 to 2014? So if I'm reading it right, that means that if I use a stillen supercharger for a 2015+ nismo or even a base/touring version then it would not be CARB legal then? Can anyone else confirm or disprove my thinking? I've searched for a while but got no real/relevant answer so I decided to post lol. Any help would be great. And If I hear from Stillen sometime, I will update on this info. Thanks all

Interesting.

This page says it's CARB approved

The actual CARB number says it's not

Oh wow... So based on the actual CARB number, my plans of a 2015+ nismo with a stillen S/C will not be CARB legal...even though no real change has been going on since 2009 engine wise..lol what a bummer..

Oh well. You would have to roll around on their tune anyway that barely makes more than full bolt ons and a tune. Just go HFC's, Gen 3's, catback and ecutek. You will be close to the same power level except have reliability and it will be more responsive.

Thats sounds good to me topgunz

I don't know anything about carb. Just posting what info I found. Maybe they have another carb number and just didn't update the website? Could be others possibilities as well.

If there actually is a carb eo number for it, go ahead, and then get an air/air kit, and get it properly tuned. Switch back to the canned tune and intake when it's time for smog. A little more wrenching every few years. Smog is so messed up, as long as you have cats it should be legal imho.
