They are charging 95.88 an hour X 35 hours.
WTF I told them to give me my car back. I am not paying that.
i asked if they were guesstimating the hours and he said no that they looked up how much time it would take per item in hours to install and all the labor that goes with it. I just want you all to know I a trying to get it done at Pinehurst Nissan in NC.

Stillen charged me $1,485 to install supercharger, clutch and lightened flywheel: 15 hours at $99/hour.

EDIT: The dealer is on the phone right now he called stillen and they are willing to still install it for 15 hours at 95.88 will run about 1538$ I just saved 2k for saying give me my car back.

If a dealership goes line by line to see what it takes to do this work based off the Mitchell guide for the O.E. replacement parts then yes, it will be astronomical. However, it should not take longer than 10-12 hours like others have said.

We definitely have the advantage of installing a few of these already and we install clutches and flywheels practically daily so our techs are experienced enough to knock through the installs pretty quickly and we like to offer that savings to our customer's.

Also, keep in mind that if you are getting the supercharger and your fascia is already off the car, that is the perfect time to have the oil cooler installed. The fascia is already off and ready to go so there is no point in paying an extra $100+ dollars later on for them to remove the fascia again.

The price also includes the oil cooler and exhaust install. But I also feel sick.

So for those who called me out and said I was doing ricer math by saying 383 on a mustang is 430 on a dynojet. Here's my run for today. 100 degree ambient temperature and 30% Humidity.

And this is SAE. I'll see if I can get the numbers for STD...

EDIT: Just called the shop again, made 445/335 STD

Made more power than advertised by Stillen w/ 35F hotter air temps.

Where did you do the dyno at? I live in Miami and i'm currently waiting on the GTM S/C kit I ordered for my 08 Infiniti G35S 5AT, also looking for a good Uprev tuner for the dyno tuning.

tomnavone · 06-29-2010, 04:33 PM

I think i made the right decision on kits.

Chris@FsP · 06-29-2010, 04:46 PM

Very impressive numbers, congrats! I'm sure that kit really makes the Z come alive

LateralG'z · 06-29-2010, 06:58 PM

those are some good looking numbers

LateralG'z · 06-29-2010, 07:00 PM

I want to see these numbers laid against the GTM turbo kit with similiar power set-up too see where power differences would be on the RPM bands

RCZ · 06-29-2010, 07:44 PM

Cartek, dont tune it there. The only person I trust to tune my car is Jack from HPL.

Thanks, horse power logic was who I was going to contact for tuning and it's definitely reassuring to have someone recommend them.

man my 08 G37 numbers are not bad either for being 5AT

What were your final numbers? I have the 5AT on my 08 G35S and I'm curious how much power dropoff there is between the automatic and
the manual.
