That is a big help!
Thank you for taking the time to ask and posting it.

If anyone else talks to Sam please ask him if they have an email or something that I could give people to send in their interest. I am very interested and willing to be the test mule for the sedan.

From what I have heard they were not getting the power they expected from the larger blower. There are a lot of people saying the M62 is too small for the VQ but Eaton says it is made for 2.5-4.0L engines. Many V8 mustangs and other larger cars also use the M62. I think there are limits as to what you can do reliably with this style of blower at this boost range. Anyone can get an M90 to make quite a bit more power than the M62 kit but it would be expensive and most people would just go twin-turbo for the same price.

Just got an email from Sam and he said the M90 project might still happen.

Yes , no , yes , no , yes , no , yes , no

It seems like Stillen is unsure about it. That's not good.

They need to figure out if they can get enough people to buy it and make lots of $$$ before they will do anything with it. If you look at how many of these kits they have sold compared to the small amount of stage 4 kits they have sold it does not look good...

All they seem to care about is the money...

Congrats and welcome to the club!

It is great. If you can imagine how fast the boost comes on just make it a little quicker! It pulls very nicely but does still die off in the high rpm's. That is why we need a bigger or more efficient blower. I wish Stillen would be happy with how much they have made a come out with a bigger kit for the group of loyal fans the have.

Stillen does not install non carb modifications. They will not install stage 3 or 4.
