I'd go for Vortech - VERY tunable, whereas Stillen is not. But, if you'd rather have a set it and forget it setup that is warrantied... Stillen is your thing!

Re: STILLEN OR VORTECH SC FOR MY AT

The Stillen would have been my choice if it wasnt for the hood . It totally turned me off . The stage 3 looks good , and some one out there is making pulleys for it to make 12psi on it . You would have to search....cant remember there name .I have a Vortech and Im very happy with it...very tunable . Just wish it had a little more down low

Couldnt afford it when young...gonna play when Im old

Re: STILLEN OR VORTECH SC FOR MY AT

I would get teh Vortech if I was going for a mid-range cost solution... I still would not do stillen, b/c of the hood and the fact that it is not tunable; also, it does not perform well in the real world, IMO.

Check out the November Issue of Sport Compact Car there is a G35 coupe with the Stillen Stage 3 running at 400 HP at 7psi.

Re: STILLEN OR VORTECH SC FOR MY AT

The hood dosen't look bad in person if you get the entire hood. Don't buy that stupid thing that goes on the stock hood. It will probably cost you more money to get that hole cut and the little thing installed rather getting the entire hood.

Re: STILLEN OR VORTECH SC FOR MY AT

I was fairly apprehensive about the hood but when I saw cersoft's in person, it really didn't look that bad. I could live with it even though I'd like the stealth of the stock hood.
