I thought about the TT and vortech setups. I just wanted a little more power. I don't keep cars past 3 or 4 yrs, so no point in spending all that money. The vortech is pretty tame out of the box, but you can make more power w/ smaller pulleys & breathing mods. If I went TT, I'd have to get the motor built...just to be safe. Either way, both are more expensive.

I had Infiniti check the exhaust today to see if there were any leaks...none found. So at this point, I'd say that either the dyno was off, there's an issue w/ my tranny, or those who are posting those tq numbers are just bs'in. I'm not worried about it too much. This is my first boosted car, but I love it...definately worth it. Go get it!

 

Not that it really matters, but a vortech would have cost you the same...3.12 pulley and all...but like i said, if you're happy, that's all that matters

 

Yea probably just the dyno was off. Glad theres nothing wrong with your exhaust.

As long as you are happy with your Stillen, the 0-60 pull on that must be fun.

 

Yeah, that's true. I had to decide between the 2 kits. But, from what I've heard, the stock vortech kit is pretty tame. The good thing about the stillen kit is the power starts at just over 2k. More usable right out of the box in my opinion.

 

To upgrade the Vortech is a peice of cake...and most install it with a 3.12 pulley right off the bat...true, the stillen starts early, but falls off early as well fwiw, i had 320 lb/ft of tq at 3500 rpm with the vortech and it was flat until redline
