Does anyone have the installation manual for the sts remote mount turbo in pdf?

Have you called STS yet? I'm sure they wont have a problem supplying it to you.

Looks like STS is closed up shop. Been trying to call them for a month and their building is listed up for lease.

I would punt. Even with their full support, it's a bad kit. Without their support, it's a nightmare waiting to happen.

STS is a bottom of the barrel kit. Plenty of info on it. Good luck sir but i agree with Chuck.

I have an sts kit on my '11 Nismo. The kit isn't that badly engineered. I would strongly recommend upgrading the oil scavenge pump to a turbowerx unit. The turbos are garrett units and the plumbing and intercooler are decent quality. Also swap out the provided clamps to better pieces so you avoid boost leaks.

I would stay away from the kit as much as possible. We sold two of them to customers and both ended up with rust issues within 6 months... We refused to sell anymore after the second car had the same issue.
