STS Systems

I'm still on the fence. I'd like to see more STS installs and videos before I pull the trigger (late this year).

The earliest I could get anything would be around the last week of February. I'm working out of town but when I get back I will be replacing the stock body kit with a new amuse kit. So that will expose the inner cooler,oil cooler and piping. I'm also going to be pulling out the intake pipes to paint them black. The car will also be on a lift, so I should be able to get some under the car pics. Also that same week I will be taking it to get a new tune( hopefully more HP), so I should be able to get a video of the dyno pulls. I know for the people on the fence, lets just say this.
If you want more HP for your money go with the squires Turbo system ...the stage one twins only pull about 425the the single sts pulls around 460-480hp for about $1000-$2000 less. Also with Turbo be in the back it , there is a lot less heat brewing under the hood. My oil temps run between 180-220 on average.

the sts stock tune that comes with the kit is very safe i believe.

If you are going to get another tune go to someone who knows the Uprev software, i would stay away from a first time tuner on the software.

I believe that was my problem ...domestic boys working on an import . The next shop works with uprev and does imports.
