Dealer Spotlight – Lloydminster Nissan Titan Truck

Jan 10, 2014

Our friends from Lloydminster Nissan are one of the dealerships that we are proud to have in the STILLEN dealership network. Recently, they put together a project Titan with the results being a truly spectacular looking truck. They sent over a few shots for us to take a look at.

Hostile Titan Truck built by Lloydminster Nissan

The Lloydminster Nissan team started out by adding a STILLEN Dual Exhaust and Cold Air Intake which not only helps gain H.P., but also improves the airflow efficiency in and out of the vehicle. Making the finest performance parts for Nissan cars and trucks has become an obsession for our staff for over 25 years here at STILLEN. We take a huge amount pride in the quality and craftsmanship we put into each and every product that ships out of our facility, and stand firmly behind every one of them. One of the biggest compliments and testaments to the quality of our products is when a dealership like Llodyminster Nissan not only sells our products in their showroom, but also makes it a point to run our products on their own dealership vehicles.

Next, they took on what to do with the wheels and tires and we think they have hit it out of the park with a set of Hostile Knuckles 20 x 9 wheels, and Goodyear Silent Armour 275 60R20 Tires.

Just to make sure other vehicles can see the truck coming… and going past them, they added Xtasy Halo black headlights and smoke taillights as well as a Rigid “E” Series 20” light bar.

Finally, a PRG Products 1.5” leveling kit was added to balance out the factory ride in addition to installing a Sprint Booster which aims to overcome throttle response delay for ECT-equipped vehicles, providing crisp on-tap acceleration at the driver’s disposal. We think they have put one incredible looking truck together.

As you can see, the folks over at Lloydminster Nissan are really getting creative with their vehicles and are doing a great job of utilizing all of the assets they have at their disposal. If you are in the area, stop by and see what they’ve come up with for their latest creation and see what they can do for you.

Lloydminster Nissan is located at 5115 25 St., Lloydminster, AB T9V 3G2. Sales: 1 (888) 273-4071

Additionally, if you have any questions about the STILLEN performance parts that were used, please be sure to contact us at www.stillen.com or by calling 866-250-5542.

Ford Raptor Supercharger Install – From 360 HP to 502 HP!

Dec 31, 2013

Since STILLEN signed the agreement with Whipple Superchargers to become the only recognized and warranty certified installer in the Southern California area, STILLEN has been booked solid installing these beauties. The dominant car has definitely been the Chevrolet Camaro, but the latest installation was on this absolutely gorgeous Ford F150 6.2 Liter SVT Raptor.

Ford Raptor Supercharger with Whipple Supercharger installed

Ford F150 SVT Raptor with Whipple Supercharger

To say we were excited to get right into the Ford Raptor supercharger install would be a huge understatement, the whole office was buzzing and taking bets (no money was exchanged- just bragging rights) on how much h.p. this beast would pull on the Dyno after the install.

We’ve had plenty of trucks come through the doors here to get work done, but this was the first Raptor, and a heavily modified one at that with a full RPG suspension, cat-back exhaust, LED lights, winch, 37’s, etc.

With the latest technology, the all new Whipple supercharger kit creates more power than any other superchargers on the market and is 100% complete and designed for stock engines, but also has enough capability to work with the heaviest of modified engines. With this in mind, we were expecting the Whipple to add about 25% extra horsepower at the wheel to this truck’s already impressive resume!

After the Ford Raptor Supercharger Install

On the baseline run on the Dyno the truck pulled 360 h.p. at the wheel. After the install, we mounted it up again and this time the results were drastically different!!! The truck laid down 502 h.p., an almost 40% increase.

Additionally, our customer saw an increase from 386 to 485 in FT Lbs. of Torque, a 25% increase!!!!

To say our customer was happy after the Ford Raptor supercharger install would be an understatement…..he was over the moon!!! He knew in an instant he had made the right choice on not only the Supercharger, but also on the highly skilled team of technicians at STILLEN to get it installed correctly!! Click on the video below to see second Dyno pull and check out the results.

Whipple Superchargers Installed By STILLEN

STILLEN continues to be the only recognized and warranty certified installer in the Southern California area for all Whipple Supercharger installations. When you have your supercharger kit installed by the STILLEN Performance Shop you can be rest assured that your vehicle will be eligible for coverage under the Whipple Supercharger 3-year/36,000 mile, 5-year/60,000 mile or even the 5-year/100,000 mile warranty options!

Whipple Superchargers are designed and manufactured in the US and utilize their innovative Twin Screw Compressor technology and only require oil replacement every 100,000 miles. We have Whipple Supercharger kits available and ready to install on your American Car, Truck, or SUV! Call STILLEN today at (866) 250-5542.
