Stillin Supercharger Bypass Valve

I was thinking of getting the Stillen Supercharger and i was wondering if you change out the stock bypass valve with an after market BOV. Thanks for the Input!

Negative...a roots type blower does not use a bov like a cent s/c or a turbo.Plus it uses a water to air ic and does not have the ic piping like the others.

Dont get stillen, it's really not worth the money, but hey if for some reason you really want it, go for it.

I had the stillen stage 4 for 4 years and ever since i went with the greddy twins i havent looked back.The stillen is way overpriced for the amount of power it makes.
Comparing it to stock its a whole lotta fun but comparing stage4 at 8psi to 5.5 psi on the twins............well.Now that im at 9psi its a whole different story.

10% off MSRP is not good enough reason to buy it. If you look hard enough you can get a ST, TT, Vortech for more than 10%+ of MSRP through one of the Vendors here.

wow, i'm actually considering getting a stillen s/c for my sedan when my gt-r gets here. i don't have a local tuner (nearest one is charlotte) that i trust, so i want to keep it safe and reliable, and good for everyday driving around town. 10% off isn't too bad. but they run specials every now and then and throw in the hood w/free shipping.

A word to the wise. Don't get Stillen. They suck. I own one and am not a fan of them at all. ****, I'll sell you mine.

Vortech FTW! If you want it to be reliable, just keep the stock pulley and dont push it over 400hp

i realize that i'm the one that is taking this too far off topic, but, my only issue with the vortech was the rattle at idle, i spend a lot of time in 'city' traffic, and rattling makes me nervous. does anybody have any concerns about this?

As far as I know the rattling only occurs on cold start up, once the car is warmed up it should go away. But you can completely eliminate the rattle by bumping the idle rpm's to 900 by your tuner. Another choice is to get a smaller pulley, this will also give you more gains in HP.
