The time that my car has been there communication has been very poor. Random issues since my car was there first was the cable that didnt get to them for 2 and half weeks. Than saying my one of my TB was bad and had to get replaced and than now their main issue with tuning. I know Stillen is busy but every other week they take off somewhere leaving me without answers or follow up to let me know how my car is. I am very, very disappoint with Stillen especially since they are a big name that they would have came through the second time around with G/Z crowd.
I will find out by the end of the week if they will give me a full refund. The only miles i have put on the supercharger is back and forth to to the shop that i got my work done at. Im tired of being strung along. Good luck to everyone else i hope they figure it out soon.

Ok, so wifedrivens numbers are 368hp 279tq on a mustang dyno with stillens SC kit. Best numbers ive see NA so far on a mustang is 324/250(someone actually made 330+hp but could have been a fluke). So for 8-10 grand you get an extra 40hp and 30tq give or take. I realize elevation, temps, etc all are variables in this equation. But seriously.... 8-10grand for what?

if am thinking what your thinking and am pretty sure am thinking what you're thinking... i also think that option is not completely proven at this point... dont you think? ... unless your thinking the other thing am thinking which is the way more tone down option of what you've done... i think the issue would then be CARB certs since i think most of the ppl with the stillen kits are in Cali...

i also hope you get refunds on your kits... if not BBB might also be an option?

To be fair, can you post the dyno sheets.

Search Semtex profile. I believe he has his dyno sheets up, and was one of the 320+ rwhp members. Also RCZ was at 310 before his SC. personally im at 300/233 on the stock tune on a mustang dyno. For me it would be a gain of 60hp and 30tq give or take a few (once im tuned) or 70/40 if i retain stock tune.

Anyone with a better dyno than mine that can post up?

You cannot compare your dyno run on dyno X against another like this.
The way to compare the progress or performance of these kits is to show the pre-kit dyno run and post kit installed & tuned.

^^^ I agree to a certain extent... But i still would expect SC numbers to blow NA numbers out of the water. Regardless of diff dyno, day, heat, elevation.. etc.

Meh i posted my own, with factory tune... and the difference is less and 70hp and 50 tq (even less when uprev tuned). However, as others have stated this is not the way to compare. Really the only one i know that would have all 3 would be someone like RCZ. He has, baseline dyno, bolt on dyno and SC dyno.

If this was a valid comparison, i would have to say 70hp and 50tq is a lot! especially on a mustang dyno. Im just not convinced its price to power ratio is were i want it to be. If i was a pure baller, throwing hundies in the air cause i can. Then maybe..
