Default Acceleration lost after install stillen G2??

Hello, After i put Stillen air intake Gen2. I did some run with my friends the result is the original 370z get ahead of me since first three gear T^T. I did tried many times the result still be the same.

In the drag there are two 370z with gen2 and 2 orginalz and one nismo autech.
The 370z with gen2 get behind those three cars since the fist gear T^T

Anyone can give me any suggestion? Any advantages of Stillen G2 compare with the orginal one???

Choose I put back the original one???

ps. All the are AT

1. There is no drag racing posting allowed here.
If you were racing on a private road or a dragstrip? Then its fine.

2. The gains from using gen2 short tubes are very minimal maybe 6hp gain? your better of staying stock, and using some K&N air filters to replace the stock air filters for now.
Then I would recommend to sell them, and buy the gen3 long tubes which will gain you at leat 14hp at the rear wheels.

Sry, it is an introduction part and yes I did it in on the road

thx alot but what about torque gain???

I can see that some torque is lost in Gen 2T^T

-Some ppl say that Gen 2 is help during high idle is that true or it give u only a better sound?????
-Or if i put the original one back is a lot better??


-Right now my car have Amuse R1 muffler and catt I use the original Y- pipe
Reflash program and Stillen Gen2 intake

-I want to gain more torque any suggestion????
Do I have to remove or add anything else after gen2 T^T

Thx again, really wanna know the advantages on Gen2

Best way to find out is to put your car back to stock, get some dynos... then install the Gen 2 system, and get more dynos. The numbers don't lie.

Ive just put on the G2 few days ago got it second hand from a g37 owner. It feels good and noticable on midrange all the way up no problem here actually like it better than the fujita short ram. Im guessin probably because the G2 has the box enclosure where the Oem airbox is mounted so it gets direct air.
