We will soon find out. Two members bought kits. I am hoping for a true and honest review of the kit.

Yeah, I look forward to the reviews. I'm not talking bad about the kit, I just know for a fact this will not produce full boost by 3k rpms. I can only imagine very small twin turbos being able to produce full boost in that range. No matter how STS puts it, their kits will be provide more turbo lag due to the length in piping. Hell, my turbo isn't that big and I see bull boost around 3500rpms.

Based on the reviews people haven't had a concern with the so called lag. I will be in Utah next week talking to Steve and his employees about the kit. In all honesty you won't know till you drive one. I'm hoping for good results. Plus why would they put out a kit I'd try think it has to much lag or won't work?

Oh, I'm not saying it's going to have horrible lag! The length of the piping shouldnt affect turbo lag by more than a couple hundred RPMs. Our engines redline at 7500, so as long as boost comes on before 4500, I'd be happy. I'd take a guess that full boost will come on around 3500-3700rpms.

But like you said...we won't know until there are reviews.

Why did STS choose a single turbo system instead of twin turbos, and what are the advantages/disadvantages of a single rear mount turbo over twin?

I would also like to see more pictures of this set up as well of the front of the car intercooler piping etc.

I wanted to know why they chose a single set-up for the 370z over a twin set-up. Most of the vehicles on their site have twin turbos. I'm aware STS specializes in rear mount turbos.
