?????? ???????
you are comparing basic bolt-ons vs forced induction. They yield different results. you'll want it all if your getting the blower.

If he's thinking of getting a Stillen SC then he doesn't need them all. Remember Stillen SS box is lock so staying as close to stock is the best bet (except Stillen Exhaust). I say get the Stillen and you'll have much better HP/TQ than buying those bolt-on and you'll be running low 13's all day.

You sound sooooooooo confused. All these mods are good......er..except the stillen supercharger. Go vortek if you go supercharged. Don't you have to buy a new hood for the stupid stillen one. Plus it sounds like a wining cat lol.

Ok, Hope this doesn't become a Vortech vs Stillen thread. They are both different type of SC (Root vs Centrifugal) and different type of use. Some love the Whining sound and some hate the Vortech's rattling sound (like a marble in a can on Idle). $ to power then Vortech is cheaper

I would go with the Bolt-ons you listed, cause if in the future you decide to go FI your not at a complete loss. I would add high flow cats, then in comparison to Stillen, you've saved yourself some money!

Since you mention Stillen I assume that you know the cost and willing to shell out 6K+. So just do the math.

These are the Best NA parts for max gain.
Crawford Headers = 980
Crawford HFC = 500
HKS Exhaust = 1400
Iso thermal spacer = 340
(Mrev2) = 446
UTEC/Tune = 1400+ (much better than Flash)
Install will be around $1100+ for headers/HFC/Exhaust/Utec (MREV/Spacer can be done by your self)


That's about 6k+, this will be close to Stillen HP but will have less torque than a Stillen SC Stage 2 (Just change the pulley and you're on stage 3). Oh, You can have a Votech installed for 6K and run high 12's all day(Stillen Stage 2 will run Low 13's all day). Hope your NA Will give you the same time...... NOT!!!!
