If I was at home I could tell you but we used the space were the navigation would of gone. Also good idea going with the ball bearing upgrade.
Did you gets your turbo coated? And did you go all out...innercooler, oil cooler, boost controller, etc. My total kit was $7800 plus another $2500 in gauges, labor and the methanol injection. The price can get away from you real quick but it is the best turbo for the money.

To each there own. There is only a few kits on the current market. GTM TT kit isnt bad but I prefer the Greddy over the GTM. Greddy has better parts IMO when dealing with both. STS is a good kit. The kit is making more power then Stage 1 SC and Stage 1 TT.

I'm not sure if I got the turbo coated or not I know the piping is getting coated so I assume the turbo is as well I don't know if inner cooler is a typo but don't all sts kits for the 370 come with inter cooler ? I got a Plx 3 in 1 gauge to keep it simple, I'm not getting a boost controller Jamaica is still getting back to me on controlling boost minimally with different maps with the uprev tuning . I still have to get a oil cooler but other than that I should be set for a while

FYI be very careful messing with the PLX device motherboard, i have a wideband on my 350z and i unplugged it one day while driving b/c the light from the gauge was driving me crazy and it killed the unit b/c of a power surge or something.

Well I seen some kits don't come with the inner cooler. I would have say its coated if your piping is coated. Hope you have as much fun with it as I have had. Good luck on the install.

If your gunna compare kits make sure they are both running similar boost at the very least. To say one is making more power than the other is ........ So many variables from one build to another. IMO, best not to compare.

STS kit was on 7psi making 450who 381 torque. This was without meth injection on 91 octane.

We have another car were doing going to have the ball bearing turbo upgrade with meth.
Zach white a forum member also has the same setup. I am waiting to see his results.
