LOL! Sorry, didn't mean to hijack the thread...

Back on point, the STS kit is kind of expensive for what you're getting, but the biggest benefit to it is that you don't have to modify the crap out of your car to make it work. Most turbo systems require cutting and shaving and bending. They're really just not easy to install and if you remove them at any point, you have a lot of under-body work that needs to be done to seal up what's been modified.

With the STS kit, it's pretty straight forward. Since they've realized they do need an intercooler, it seems they're including it with the kit now. But the good news is that the intercooler doesn't have to be big leaving a LOT of room for expansion later (or getting a bigger intercooler and upping the boost).

I've thought about doing a staged STS kit so that there's no boost lag.

Any thoughts?
