Got home from work (day job), and went straight to the shop to see how the FMIC bracket will fit...I like it:






The top of the bracket will have to be cust down about one inch, but that is quick and easy. Looks like the charge piping to the TB's will work out great as well.





HELLO:



The charge pipe will come from the outside, just above the front left lower control arm, middle of the pic, where light is visible:



Turbo to IC piping will be 2.5".




FOR THOSE OF YOU WITH STILLEN CAI's check your lines on the driver side:



You can see how worn those are, and this could be a problem if left alone.

Good problem solver if you were worried about your cats failing and messing up the turbo

Yeah the only other thing I would worry about is the oil pump failing. Boosted is there gonna be option for gauges with the kit? I would want Boost, A/F ratio, and can you put a gauge on the outlet of the oil pump to make sure your feeding the turbo?

Correct, it will replace the cats/test pipes and the OEM Y-pipe. The down pipe will bolt up to where the outlet of the OEM Y-pipe used to bolt up to the rest of the exhaust, after the transmission.

These oil pumps are superior to all others on the market. They are rated for 10,000 hours life, have a ball bearing continuous duty motor, stainless gear housing, viton seals, and brass gears. These are built for this application, and you will find many STS customers upgrading to these. This is the only pump I would ever use, and have used on my car for 3 years now with about 20,0000miles. The pump does not feed the turbo, the engine does. The pumps purpose is to take the oil from the turbo back to the oil pan.

There will be no gauges with the kit. There is just too many options out there, and one set may not suite all customers....so it is best left for the customer to pick the best brand/type.
