Hood

Guys - I spoke with Alex & Craig @ Stillen last week & they said that their designers were working on another hood w/o that second little "bump" in the middle of the hood. IMO, that's what males the hood not all that appealing. I personally like the cowl induction style hood ( ala late 60's Z-28's & 'Vettes ). In fact, U could probably 'glass on a low profile cowl scoop from Harwood for a more flowing look. Just not sure about the clearance either.

Re: Stillen Supercharger Experience

Thanks for the complements about the video, just have to work on my camera skills now :-)

I just received my CruiseCam in car camera mount and I picked a 3CCD Pansonic GS200 whilst in Japan so many vids will be coming.

Hopefully the install will be done by friday night and then a week later I'll do a post install dyno.

I am still only at 1800 miles and I have heard from multiple sources that the ECU pulls timing until you hit 2000 miles so I want to get past that before doing the final dyno ...

Re: Stillen Supercharger Experience

I'm from England, enjoying the until now only imagined sunshine up here in Washington :-)

I am also looking forward to the numbers, I realise that the stillen is not going to be making as much hp as vortech or ATI but I am looking forward to the driveability of the stillen.

P.s. what gave it away?

Re: Stillen Supercharger Experience

Well, I work with ppl all over the world on a daily basis and words like "whilst" and "realise" (s instead of z) gave it away.

Cheers!

Re: Stillen Supercharger Experience

Thanks, I have been turning a lot of heads :-)

I went with the fiberglass hood and got a very good body shop to colour match and blend to the fenders and bumper, the install was a little pricey but the result looks factory.

Apparently the supercharger install with be done on Aug 3/4 along with eibach springs and rear camber adjustment, really looking forward to it, then I just have to spring for a lighter flywheel, stronger clutch and oil cooler then she will be done for a while :-)

Don't worry, I'll be posting many more vids (0-60s etc)

Re: Stillen Supercharger Experience

cersoft... your hood looks great. I agree with the above post, your pictures makes the hood look sweet.... I have a question for you guys, does the warranty cover just the engine, or does it cover the computer as well. I have heard that you pretty much void all factory warranties with a supercharger, and if you have a problem with the computer in the future, its on you. Computers are pretty expensive from what I hear. Any major upgrades to the car can result in a shorter life for the computer. Having a warranty on the engine, but the computer can cost just as much or pretty close to it.

Any thoughts.

Re: Stillen Supercharger Experience

The Stillen normal warranty covers only the blower itself. Nothing else.
If you get their extended warranty, I found out from talking to the sales rep and Dell (warranty provider), that it only covers the motor upto $3000.00. Which means, you fork out 280 for their exteneded warrranty. If you blow your motor because of the blower, they will give you $3000 for a new motor, or get it fixed, whichever is cheaper. But if the motor is $6000 to replace, you only get $3000 and you foot the bill for the rest. For a $280 investment, its not bad, becuase you still get $3000 and then can rebuild the motor.
