There is no reason to ever bash GTM. While I dont personally run any of their parts I know for a fact they are top notch.

Although I'm still torn between the kits, if gtm can't get carb approved when I'm ready to buy, I have no other choice but to get the stillen kit it will be less hassle from cops and I don't have to worry about failing smog checks. |

As for you saying you dont mind the bashing, most of us mature adults DO. That is not what the forum is for and especially NOT WHAT THE TECH SECTION IS FOR! Now that the car has gone down in value and the younger crowd can afford it this forum is going to sh1t and becoming my350.com. Sad really, I remember when the tech section was full of polite, informative people. Sam and GTM have been absolutly wonderful to the community and done everything in their power to produce high quality products for our platform. Something MANY companies have failed to step up and deliver on.

Ah, the inevitable discontent of the old guard. As predictable as younger people joining as a car gets cheaper. They improve the forum by complaining how the forum has deteriorated.

Lots of miss information swirling out there and I wouldn't trust a vendor who posts disparaging remarks towards potential customer on forums any further than I could throw em.
My stock Stillen with 8psi pulley, injectors, fuel pump etc makes 437 WHP on 100 octane gas. It runs like a champ. No belt slip, no rich or lean running, no detonation. One of the cleanest best kits I have ever seen. Others are a bit of a hodgepodge and are not CARB legal and they aren't willing to warranty kit like Stillen. Win to Stillen. Hoopa Hillclimb 2012 - 370Z - YouTube Mmmmmm sound so sweeeet YouTube - Hoopa hillclimb 2012 - 370z Bottom line if you are not worried about CARB you'd be silly not to go turbo on our cars? A non smog legal SC is a waste of space under the hood.
