^^^STS is another option, i hope someone comes through for you

After some tuning on this set-up, they were able to make 520whp....

motoextreme · 01-31-2010, 12:35 PM

Did anyone get a price or info if they are even working on a 370? Surely someone lives close to them and can swing by since they are yet to respond.

StillenZ · 01-31-2010, 01:20 PM

I talked to them through e-mail and they only suggest buying the universal kit.... It's hard to get them to say much more through email... Seems like they are telling everyone to call and even then only telling them to buy the universal kit.... I'd love to see them make a 370Z specific kit...

I still worry about reliability on a kit like this... I know they have that patented oil feed deal but I still would feel a lot better talking to some people with sts kits successfully installed and hear some long term reviews....Doesn't seem like there are near as many people with STS as some of the other major brands..(There's got to be a reason why because it is definitely cheaper?)

Maybe people just don't want to try it because of all the crap they hear from everyone else... Seems to me though that "everyone else" hasn't tried STS out for themselves meaning I haven't heard anyone say, "I had STS once and hated it"... Just my opinion though... I might have to take the plunge

I have seen a few rear mount turbo setups on Vettes and Z28's... along with building one for one of my friends.... IMO they are a solid system... just different, im sure thats the reason more people dont try it. Most people for our platform also want TT or Superchargers.... I dont really think that single turbo setups are as popular im sure that is another reason.

As far as longevity.... thats going to be pretty much in line with everything else... its going to depend on your tune and how you drive your car.

GingaBreadMan · 01-31-2010, 04:25 PM

On their website they have a list of authorized installers. Check to see where they are in your state and stop by the shop. Hopefully they will answer your questions. I have been dragging my feet because of the weather and it's not urgent that I get it right this minute. I'm still having fun with my Z in stock form and still whipping a$$ on the road.

StillenZ · 01-31-2010, 04:28 PM

yea i hear ya... I talked to their "authorized installer" near me... After the install he takes the car down the road to the nearest dyno and lets that guy dyno it... I just don't know how comfortable I am with all of that... IDK... I found a guy with a dyno closer to me but seems like he works on a lot of american muscle... Gonna take a trip to his shop next week to check it out/see what he thinks about STS, if anything

GingaBreadMan · 01-31-2010, 05:34 PM

STS mainly deals with american cars. That single turbo 350z is one of the few imports that have a rear mounted turbo. I let them know had bad their promotion is. Most ppl have no idea that they exist. They are missing out on a huge market share because import guys don't have a clue there are other turbo options available. I tried to make them aware of the amount of interest that's on this forum.

GingaBreadMan · 02-02-2010, 01:48 PM

I have great news guys. I just got off the phone with Andrew from STS, he handles sales. He spoke to the R&D guys and they are interested in making a kit for us. They just need to get a 370z in the shop. I don't know if we have any forum members in the Utah area, but if we do that would be the final step. I hope someone can make it out there. Give Andrew a call, they have the phone issues taken care of. I did my best, let's get this done.

Solus · 02-02-2010, 02:00 PM

I have some leave saved up maybe I will call them drive out drop off my car and come back and get it when its done.

Brazilbro · 02-02-2010, 02:27 PM

GingaBreadMan · 02-02-2010, 03:13 PM

Wow... I love what I am hearing... wow... wow..I might just have to make the drive... I just really like the idea that they will personally be working on it... I mean if anyone knows STS I think they probably do... FML DECISIONS DECISIONS.... I sure was hoping to see some supercharger numbers by now!

Where are these guys at in Utah, get their address and I may swing buy and see how sincere their interest is.
