Any S/C's in North NJ?

Hi guys.

This is my first post after having been on this forum for well over a year and I've done some modding like most of you guys, intake, exhuast, etc.
Well I finally got the wife to break down and ok'd me getting a S/C.
Is there anyone up in North Jersey with either a Stillen/Vortech/ATI that's willing to meet me so that I can see and hear the S/C before deciding on which one to go with.
I work in Essex county and live in Morris county.

Thanks, hope to hear from someone.

Might want to post this request in the Northeast forum. Pretty sure that a few do exist in the area.

Also consider attending the Nissian /Infiniti day at Raceway Park sometime in June.

I have the same interest..but am leaning toward the Stillen for a number of "simplistic" reasons. I'm in western Morris county off of Schooley's Mountain Rd.

Good Luck

+1 subscribing.

I know there's one here in Staten Island but I hardly know the guy. I would like to see/hear one so I can decide too. Even I'm leaning toward Stillen I still want to give Vortech a chance and see if 2k-3k RPM isn't that bad.

I think if you post this at MY350Z you'll have better success, it seems everyone there are FI'ed

Well I saw a Black one on Richmond Ave. but don't know if he's from SI. But there is one with a Red Coupe that my friend showed me and always parked on the same area (I forgot which part of SI ). both had Stillen though, no Vortech yet.

I'm leaning towards the Stillen myself, but would like to see the hood in person. I wouldn't mind the Vortech either but I was told it was very loud. I just wanted to hear how loud it was compared to Stillen.

the vortech and ati make a clanking sound at idle,stillen is quiet at idle.vortech and ati make a sound like a jet when rpm,s increase (not as loud of course )the stillen gets quite a bit louder as rpm,s incease and screams at wot.nothing sounds as good at wot then a roots blower.

The hood wasn't bad especially on Black car. I saw one and I almost hit the other car coz I was just staring at it the hole time

Ok, after more research and much mulling over I think I'm heavily leaning towards the Stillen. I just can't decide on whether to get the carbonfiber hood or the fiberglass hood. Has anyone seen the carbonfiber hood on a DG? Should I just paint the fiberglass to match paint?

Thanks
