Thumbs up Stillen SC for 05+ rev up w/6MT

Just got off the phone with Russ at Stillen. They have the test car on the lot and expect to have the release of the SC for 6MT rev ups by sometime next month!

Hope he's right!

I also am awaiting this SC. After reading your post, I'll wait a couple of weeks and call Stillen again. Let's keep each other apprised of what we learn.

Does "next month" mean August?

Yes....

Right now they have NO hood for the 05'+ sedans. You will have to use the "Hood Cowl" or build something that looks a LOT better.

Looks hawt!

How much good do you think your getting from the intercooler with it blocked by the OEM bumper like that? I don't want to change mine to an aftermarket, I like the stock look, but in South Texas, every bit of cooling you can get helps.

I agree on the hood. Some like it and some don't. That's life...


As for the IC it is not the ideal set-up but does still get a lot of air flow. Also since it is a Air/H2O it is very efficient. If you could get someone to bring a cooler to the track you could drop some ice in before your runs too help as well.

I like the hood also. Toptoneone are you a test subj for 05's. Ttrank your car is looking primo as always. I like the jwt tt kit the most. But will probably most likely end up with the stillen(05 ver). Perfect timing for next xmas. To Op please keep us informed.
