I'm not the biggest fan of the Stillen, but it's FI and FI=Happiness.
Congrats. GL with the install.

Oh, I LOVE the way the Stillen sounds. It's quieter and louder than my Vortech. After the install, you'll see what I mean.

And GL with Law School. If you need some Lsat stuff, I should have a few things boxed up somewhere in the garage.

+1...Not a fan of stillen too, too little power for me to spend that much money on, but FI is fun no matter what! You're going to have a blast! Welcome to the wonderful world of FI.

Congrats on the purchase, let me know if you need any install help. That was my first FI kit too.

Dude, you should have gotten a Vortech Supercharger. The Stillen kit has a horrible whining sound. Search for it on youtube...

The Stillen sounds badass but for the power it puts out, its not worth the money IMO. Good luck tho!
