Hello everyone and I have some info i would like to post. Not one person on here can call me a Stillen Nut swinger and all this info is unbiased. After hearing about Stillen trying to destroy weiboys for sale I contacted Josh about this. Reason for doing this was because i was upset about something like this and thought it was a shitty thing for them to do. Well after speaking with Josh according to him that was not the case. I had about a half hour conversation with him and he provided me with a ton of info. So I am going to display this info for all to read and to make there own interpretation of what happen. The reason for stillen not posting this is because thy didn't want to seem like they were attacking weiboy. The reason I am posting is because like anyone else on here I want the truth so people can make there own assumption based off of the facts they were provided. I don't know if i was suppose to post this or if Josh wanted the conversation kept between me and him, so I am practicing my first amendment, so sorry Josh if this was not what was intended.

I addressed the situation to Josh so i am going to go down the line.
Josh told me that the statement of them trying to kill his F/S thread is completely unfair. People have called asking about the kit and if they would recommend if they buy it. Stillen told them to proceed with caution because they did not see the condition of the kit and verify if all the parts to be removed were there. With stillen i have to agree with. How can they tell someone it will be good if they did not see it. They don't know who is removing the kit, things get lost it happens. Also stillen provided eric with a option to send the kit into them to verify that all the parts were there and there present condition. It would cost about a hour of labor. Upon them completing the inspection Josh said he would have no problem on recommending the kit if it is good to go. Also Josh said he would have shipped it to the seller from there with all the parts required to fit it on to the 370 if that is the vehicle the buyer had. According to Josh weiboy denied this and said no body would pay for this. Also when people asked what was needed to make it fit on the Z, Stillen was unsure at first because they never received this request. After finding out they contacted weiboy to let him know the difference between both kits.

Since weiboy corrected about them not selling the parts required for the kit, I will skip that. Seemed to be miscommunication there that was cleared up. Josh also mentioned to me that they never mentioned that they wouldn't provide the new buyer of there kit with support. he was quick to say "we are still on the hook with this kit regardless of who owns it.

Josh also told me about some of the performance issues with weiboys car, but I am not going into that on here because I don't own the kit. I just want to provide the info on there customer service. I just want to make sure that all the info is out there for people to make there own decision.

great Frank! thanks for clearing this up!

yes, Stillen did asked me to send in the kit for inspection and would convert whatever is needed. there will be additional charges that nobody is willing to pay and the parts needed isn't a big deal at all.

about my some potential buyers calling them, can you confirm and ask if Stillen tried to pursuede them to buy a new kit rather than mines?

i got my word out, anger relieved and ready to move on. i know this thread is very childish in some ways to some people but i am done. my kit is sold! i'm just hoping that Stillen will supply whatever parts or support my buyer will need and not give him a hassle for not buying their new kit's in stock.

I don't understand why this topic had to blow up so much? Weiboy stated his opinions of a S/C kit that he paid for and drove daily. I think he has the right to be unsatisfied with it if it is not running up to par because that is a lot of money to throw away for a modification that I think most people would expect more of. I know I'd be upset if it was happening to me. Again, Wei ordered the CARB kit which was in theory supposed to pass CARB inspection...

Some questions for Stillen:

1. What's going on with the status of the CARB certificate?
2. Is Weiboys S/C issues one of a kind? What I mean by this; is there no one out there running the CARB kit that is having these problems as described by Wei?
3. Is it just too soon to tell? How many CARB kits have really been sold and installed so far to current date?
4. Are any other customers having any issues at all with their CARB, or did R8 tune fix everything for everyone else?
5. Have all other CARB kits out there reached the advertised HP/TQ gains?
6. Anyone else experiencing "Detonation"?

Not taking sides here but I am definitely curious about some of those questions I just posed. So far the only person I've heard about being unsatisfied with his kit is Weiboy, and I have not really seen many people on myG37 who have reviewed or running a Stillen kit besides Whiddles and Weiboy. I'm new here to the370z so I will continue reading through threads here to see how many 370 customer so far have been satisfied with their Stillen kit and what they have to say about it in their reviews.

Ahhh Stillen and their crappy tunes smh...lol...Wei I don't blame u for venting as if I were in ur shoes I would too. That is a lot of money for a mod...Instead of rushing, Stillen should of worked out all the bugs and made sure the tune was 100%...Advertising numbers for a carb kit and not making them is false advertisment and that is noo good. Your tunes are complete junk...I mean seriously like 8tunes to get try and get it right lol u should take some notes from GTM...

That will be the true test for Stillen. If they really back up their products like they say they do, then there shouldn't be any problems getting new parts.......

I can't see what Mr. Squeeze's car is capable of once he runs his custom tune... I think the Stillen tunes are killin' it!

regardless of how much I know or don't know, you still conveniently left out a lot of pieces to the puzzle and that's what is wrong with the picture. People dont "already acknowledge" how good they were to you anymore than they already acknowledge how upset you are about this whole thing.

HE's not and he'll never understand how I feel. Whenever threads like these pops up he's always there to defend Stillen. I was just like him before. IDk why he's so upset about me posting my problems.

Lol. Maybe he's should test out the Stillen CARB tune and he'll change his mind!

I don't understand y ppl get offended when threads like this pop up. I dont get offended when a bad ARK exhaust thread pops up. IDK... I dont think its a big deal that OP is sharing his experience. He did obviously leave out some things but then agian I'm sure he was in a pretty upset state of mind when he started this thread. No one is here to watch members trade punches, although its a little entertaining, it gets off subject eventually.

Another thing is Stillen hasnt even left a post here which is odd cuz most vendors do especially when its on there product. I know I would be here everyday trying to defend my product. Maybe they havent been on the forum...who knows.

OP: have you talked to Sam at GTM yet about your situation and getting the GTM SC?

Stillen did post. Remember this started out on myg37.com and Eric copied it and posted it here for everyone to read. Kyle said what he had to and then the post I made was from talking to josh and things that got left out. I don't think there isn't really anything else they can say.
