New Engine

So after 5000 miles and 2 oil consumption tests Infiniti has decided to replace my engine. And for all of u and that have had been refused fir aftermarket parts on your cars bring it to my dealer . HAHA These guys are pretty good guys they are honoring my warranty and when i get it back in 2 weeks theyre putting stillen headers in it and hookin me up on the price since the engine will already be out.

I'm going to go through the same thing I think. I just changed my oil, there was a little over a quart in the engine! 3000 miles, and 3.5 quarts burned!! The engine has 3650 miles on it. I changed the oil at 100, 600, and 3650 miles.

I'll be putting my stock intake and exhaust back on though just to be sure.

probably better off the only reason i didnt bother was cause theyre an authorized stillen dealer and i know people that have supercharhers and they still honor their warranty

UUGGGHHHHH I got the stock intake in no problem. I was putting the stock exhaust back on and I don't have the exhaust gasket that goes between the y pipe and mid pipe. I'll pick one up tomorrow. Good thing I have another car to drive.

The gaskets from the cats to the y-pipe are different than the one I need, the spacing is different, I checked.
The instructions that came with my stillen ex. said to use the stock gaskets.

Anyway, it'll prolly still be about the same price for what I need. You get them from the dealer?
