does anyone know the parts I will need to order from stillen to convert my V1 4th gen kit to a 5th gen kit?

Main part is really on the pipe to the TB from the Supercharger. Most do CAI's on the superchargers, so no need for the intake pipe.

Or you can do what I did for JAY25, just make one, its not that hard or involved with some mandrel bent exhaust piping.

sell it and get the 5th gen kit thats for sale in the 5th gen forum.

Um why would you sell it when you can easily fabricate a new crosspipe? I dont understand the mentality in selling an entire kit and then dealing with getting another one and making sure all the parts are there when only ONE pipe is wrong?

Like I said, I fabricated a 5th gen V2 blower into a 4th gen car by making the cross pipe in two sections and then welding hose nubbs on the end of the pipe where it meets the TB. No issues.

I cant do it without a car to fabricate the pipe on, Im explaining to him what needs to be done.

If you go to buy the pipe from Stillen, they will rip you a new one, probably a good $500. Much cheaper to just but the mandrel bends and weld the pipe together or take it to a mandrel bent shop and they can make the pipe in one piece for probably less than $200.

it's 250 from stillen...plus I kinda want the stillen sticker and carb oe label on the piping...lol...in either case, I know there are several other differences....isn't there a power steering cooler included and something else that is different like the thermostat relocator?? I may be mistaken though...

I got 5th gen piping that you will need to make this work on your car.

Will include chrome 5th gen charge pipe and the filter to drop intor your fender well with adapter!

all you need to buy is a HKS SSQ BOV, it has HKS Flange on it already

$200 shipped

damn...I want the stock black powdercoated stillen pipe...

although the chrome pipe would look great with the HKS SSQV as the housing on that is chrome if I can recall...the chrome is too showy...can you powdercoat over chrome or no?

I am switching over to the Z32 maf when I boost...so will I still need the 5th gen piping?

would I need anything else to bolt up it up to my 2000 besides the charge pipe? power steering cooler? thermostat relocator any different? anything else?

So the pipes from a 95-98 S/C kit will not fit 00-01? Please explaine a little more since I had that on my mind for a period of time.

the 95-99 kits use the MAF on the charges side. Pieced together into three separate pieces.

one pipe from the SCer to the MAF using a rubber connector. Then the 90 degree bend to the throttle body from the MAF.


Now the 5th gen kit comes into two large pipes. One pipe holds the filter and is secured behind the radiator and that pipe holds the MAF. It holds the 5th Gen MAF on the non charged side because 5th gen MAFS cant handle much boost and will break. The Charged pipe wont fit into your 95-99 becuase the location of the TB is different. I already test fitted that piping. You can make it fit. All you have to do is cut it and reconnect it using a rubber heater hose or a silicone connector.

Thank you for that explanation, I am starting to get the idea. But in my case, I was thinking of putting a V1 on a AE Maxima. So would I be able to use the original pipes with a little bit of modification? Also would the round K&N filter fit, or a CAI would need to be made?
