I did have to cut the tow hook off but I was willing to do it for this upgrade which I really feel was worth it. No other fitment issues, it was pretty straigh forward.

You can either cut the tow hock off ( I did this also) or like Swiss and install it upside down lol worked for him

Anyone know how lths and hfcs will affect gains with this kit? My friend was telling me those mods make more gains with boost. Wondering if the stock kit with frozenboost heat exchanger and a good tune added to these breathing mods could give me 425 whp 340 wtrq on a 7at.

Stillen says you will make more power with stock cats. You could get close, mines 418whp 311 tq on a 7AT but I'm also close to sea level. The 7 AT is rated for 300 tq so if you do it know you are playing in the danger zone and be prepared you could kill the 7AT.

I thought gtm was the one making less power with lths. If I did this, I would be looking into FI's upcoming 7at upgrade.

Nope, GTM kit with LTH makes the same power.
Neither kit can really take advantage of LTH/TP because they were designed around stock cats. The SC units just do not push enough air where LTH/TP provide a benefit for performance, now other benefits can be heat removal which is a positive.

So it would make more sense to lose them then. Does the install process of the Stillen kit in anyway save some labor costs on removal of headers? I know the CAI and m370 would come off as part of install.

I don't think it will save any time but they are offering the kit tomorrow on a special starting at $4,999. I'm sure it's the tuner kit at that price but still a good deal.

They didn't specify the 370 kit starts at that price, just that their SC kits in general do. It could be one for another car. I am interested to see what kind of discount it will actually be. Since their regular everyday website price is already lower than 'msrp' who knows what number they will use at the regular price that this $960 discount is coming off of.

Didn't it have a picture of the 370z one with the price? I deleted it, I don't really need a second one and I have about everything else they had on the car already.

Anyone have the newer Stillen tune? They are telling me they usually see low 400whp and low 300 wtrq with the new tune which is right in line with what I would expect with a custom tune. Can anyone here say if their newer tune is good enough to not need a custom tune?

I would always use a custom tune over a canned tune. No matter what you are told by a vendor, you will always have a better, safer running car with a custom tune.
