So i got a tune today by SG Motorsport | Welcome. Everything is running perfect now. No more pings, the throttle response is night and day, and the boost feels much better. The baseline run was at 375 whp and after the tune it's at 395whp with 298 lbs/torque. This was done on a dynapack 3000 dyno. Will have the graph up as soon as i get it scanned. The most significant gain was during 3000-3400 rpm where it gained about 20lbs/torque from the tune which i felt immediately.

When I started reading about this SC--initially rated at something like +155 WHP--I wondered about the internals. Just as I wonder about the internals of ANY engine having its WHP increased by 50%. I mean, something's gotta give. I agree with the comment regarding Stillen posting a more "honest" remark about gains and having people actually get a few more HP than using what appears to be a tune that's going to be damaging in the short run to the engine just for the sake of posting a big number.

Got the new tune and making less power with this tune then the last three tunes. Throwing in the towel given stillen enough time i give up! Never buying anything else from stillen and i would recondmend no one buy this kit its no where close to what stillen advertised.

At this point i cant blame you. IMO get a partial refund (screw the CARB) and find a local tuner that can tune their product better than they can.

Those numbers are def a little low. When we ran their newest tune on a DJ, we came up with 389whp/290wtq, which is almost identical to our custom tune on a different car (although the ambient conditions on our custom tune were much worse than when we dyno'd the Stillen tune).

^^^ not dumb at all. You will see a small increase in HP and huge increas in TQ. I am still surprised that stillen has such low TQ number compaired to the other SC kit out there. with a 6 psi pully it makes 350tq
