I dont think he ever said,. It was on here tho. No ones really sure what happened other that the car hit 10 PSI on the stock kit without a retune :/

Team_STILLEN

Interesting. I wonder how it hit 10 psi?

I've seen several cars come through STILLEN with the SC and Headers. But we have never had a chance to do a before and after headers.

Yea I dont think he knew or knows either thread fell off. When i had mine I was seeing 9 PSI on the stock kit. Only had a catback, Stock cats and headers of course.

So far, so good!

Supercharged VQ37 Goes BOOOM - Nissan 370Z Forum

We have installed and tuned cars with the STILLEN Headers with the Supercharger kit. We simply have not done a full supercharger install and tune, then immediately added headers and re-tested. The power results seem promising, but with so few people wanting to spend the extra $1000+ on headers and install we haven't seen a huge demand for the info.

Hey good info here, and good/bad histories here as well. I'm planning of boosting my 6mt 09 sedan, but it's my daily and do t want it to go boom. I don't have a heavy foot (I get 400 miles/650+on my tank) but sometimes I do floor it (not super hard of course).

So I went to my friend/mechanic to discuss about my options, he had told me "SC bro". I told him I want to TT it.
Now I'm here to keep following the topic.

Ps: so far I read pages 1-11 and I don't know what to think yet...

I came on here to see if anybody has addressed the windshield fluid reservoir getting deleted by an intercooler. Is that an issue with a supercharger as well? Also something to consider about it being a daily

so unfortunately the shop that tuned my g37xs with stillen supercharger lost the disc and cable with many other parts. today i went to get a transflush and was planning on installing a transmission cooler after the flush. consulted with the mechanic about ITB12-027 which is the trans reflash for better shifting on 2nd-3rd gear, turns out it re-flashes the ECM with the update so the questions are:
1- does this reflash erase stillen tune?
2- does the stillen tune modify the Infiniti ECM license? and does it show with consult III if there were parameter changes? he said he is not sure if it was tuned but then it would not make sense how the car is running smooth as far as Idle and cruise rpms.
my shifting is horrible, with manual, auto or auto sport. and the car chokes bad between shifts to the point im concerned about motor mounts and how long they would last.

any advise would be appreciated

I'm pretty sure your stillen tune is wiped. I'd honestly not even run on the canned tune anyways, since it's not reliable. Get a custom EcuTek tune and don't look back.

First I'd like to highlight that this is not an advertisement! I have been struggling to hell with my g37 stillen supercharged to get it to drive "normally" and finally I happy with it after spending way too much money on other tunes. Here's finally what happened:

I've been battling fuel control issues with my supercharged G ever since I've had it, however, I didn't realize my issues until I met Anthony from FFTEC and he was completely open book with me about everything.
I've had numerous tunes from reputable tuners (multiple west coast and east coast tuners) from all over the country. Finally, it took the hard work and dedication of Anthony at FFTEC.com to put my car into complete fuel control using a combination of ECUTEK and the utilization of ALL of it's powerful custom features in creative ways I can't even begin to describe.
Many tuners use the speed density feature to tune this kit, however, after close observation it becomes obvious that vehicles tuned with conventional tunes will have wide swings in injector pulse widths to compensate for trims that are constantly swinging to far one way or the other. This results in surges of power, and overall lack of smooth driveability.
Working with FFTEC has been a painless pleasure. They have a base tune now calibrated for outstanding driveability that could be custom tailored to any Stillen supercharged 3.7VHR application. I am absolutely astonished at what they were able to accomplish after I had paid for 3x other tunes some of the most prestigious outlets. Not only is my car getting excellent fuel economy, but it's making great power and I don't have to worry about my cats clogging anymore from poor fuel control (since my vehicle is a california vehicle).
email sales@FFTEC.com and ask for Anthony if you want the most of out of your Stillen supercharger kit!
