Advice new style Stillen S.C. Intercooler pipe (MAFs at TB)

Aaron, I sent you a PM.

Dropping the Z off today. There might be a slight delay. I may have them tune the currrent OE stillen setup w/dual exhaust FIRST, since the MAF tables needs to reflect changing out the defective Throttlebodies. They will weld up the piping for the full vent setup and MAFs closer to the TB's. I'll get another tune for that.

Base run without the piping + Motordyne TDX installed without a tune yielded 358wHP on a mustang dyno. Ran very rich in the beginning, on spot A/F mid range, and it leaned out towards the end.

I'll get an update after the piping and tune goes in and post some charts

Results came in, 380 whp on a mustang dyno. Just waiting for the email with logs/dyno sheet, and MAP. Here is the new pipe welded up and fitted. Appears this one was taken before pulling the front bumper off and removing the old piping/filter.

Well, Stillen support sux. It is amazing that there is no accountability these days. How hard is it to admit a mistake? I feel it builds character.

They denied issues with ANY harness they ever created, but they revised them. I use the forums as a form of "statistics". Well, "Statistically" speaking... this Stillen kit sucks. Their harness' suck. If their kit was "superb", then there wouldn't be anyone making A-A kits for it. Clearly having the MAFs at the front of the bumper with NO map OR IAT sensor in the manifold is a BAD design for a 350z HR.

MOST tuning shops are the same... I'm a software engineer. Just grabbed a few EFI books. Just have to do it myself i guess. sigh....

***EDIT***
Anyone considering a supercharger kit, Just grab TopGunz new FULL set up. Will save you $$$ in the endless tunes I have done... especially frustration. Cost me 1K to get the piping done + tune, and still getting p0300 errors. 2 different tuning shops, 4 different tunes. 2 different pipe set ups. Just goes to show. If stillen gave 2 shitz, they would have an sticky OR a Frequently asked questions page with tuning this crap at idle.

FYI... @Stillen... the shields you provide for the filters DO NOTHING!!!!!

Did you ever get the P0300 solved? I’m getting this same error. The clamps that stillen provides kept poping off the cupler. I upgraded the clamps and the error went away but it’s back now.

Which clamps are you speaking of? With the new pipe set up, I went with T-bolt clamps
