Just looking around at some FI for the G. I was looking at the Stillen Supercharger, it looks good and all, but then I learned that you cant use the OEM hood, because it wont fit. Stillen offers a hood that works with the G, but IMO it doesn't look that good. My question is, are there any other after market hoods that will fit with the supercharger, or should I just go with another brand?

Thanks,Drummer

Because its a roots' type charger, you have to either install a hood scoop or an entire aftermarket hood...I'm sure you can find a few on the net. This is why I'd go with a vortech...decent gains and an easy install.

I am thinking of going with the Vortec Myself.

I don't know of any sedan that has this done but it would be a 1 of a kind!

To my knowledge, there are no aftermarket hoods with enough space over the area of the Stillen S/C pulley to work. The other option might be to think of your own design and have someone mold a custom piece to attach onto your existing hood. It would require you to cut a hole in your hood and the one-off design may be a bit costly. But it is an option...
