Two quick notes. When I took my vehicle to the dealership, they said my Stillen exhaust voided warrantys, or would cause an issue if something came up, and they also said NO grounding kit was ok under warranty. They said grounding kits were a no no.

Thats just one dealer, the one closest to my house no less. Another dealer here in AZ actually sells and installs Stillen products.

To any of you guys who are lining up to pay $90 or more for these "grounding kits" based on their talk of their "quality", I have a business proposition. I will produce one for anyone who wants one of higher quality for a cheaper price. I'll use 4 GA wire instead of 8. I'll let you choose the color of your wires. It'll do the exact same thing as any vendors out there except I'll charge a lot less than $100.
I've done this a number of times. Everything Kyle said is correct. It's not hard and it shouldn't cost so much, but considering how many of you seem eager to pay up, I can see how they charge as much as they do. Almost anyone can do this in less then an hour. If you'd like one PM me. |

You really are willing to get the material, measure everything out to proper lengths, and lable wires, crimp everything with high grade connectors, get the bolts you need and hardware, different color wires, plus write up good instructions and provide shipping for a lot less $$$???? Doesn't seem worth it to me.

Nissan/Infiniti corporate authorizes the warranty coverage not the dealership. A dealer rep. on a power trip can think he has some say but at the end of they day they aren't the ones flipping the bill. Besides, if anything happens to your car because of the exhaust I would be absolutely amazed and the dealership would need to prove that the exhaust caused the damage/failure to void the warranty. |
Actually, now that I think about it...It's against the law for them to void your warranty with a cat-back exhaust. They can however void the warranty based on hi-flow cats.
|
I had an SES after HFC's and cat-back were installed. It was showing the AF ratio sensor in the manifold was reading funny. They tried to blame the cat-back and said it voided the warranty. After installing Stillen headers, everything is fine :) the SES just gave me an excuse to go with the full exhaust anyway so you, stillen, should be happy :biggthumpup: great products BTW!

If I get enough interest to make buying the materials cost effective, I'll do it. It wouldn't be worthwhile to make only one or two because I wouldn't be able to buy the materials in bulk. So far there has been interest by 3 members. If at least 6 people want them, I'll do it. PM me if you have interest.

Good objective review, Kyle. Well put. Nice job. Thanks.
