In my honest opinion I think my motor let go from being pushed to hard on a kit that wasn't designed to be pushed. I think the car ran hot , one major design flaw in the kit is MAF location. The stock MAF's have to be relocated with this kit to the front bumper and uprev uses IAT's for ignition timing. Also the heat exchanger is very small I really don't think it cools enough. Like I said before I know a few that blew one of them is on this forum name is Nissan370. He was pushing his Stillen kit hard as well and it now he has a built motor like my self.

Custom tune I was the first to switch to cog pulleys and upgrade the impeller in the supercharger.
