STS Systems

tower74 · 11-18-2011, 10:00 PM

It was at the start since it was the very first STS AT7 370z. They had never thought someone would throw a turbo on a automatic. So the guys here had to design an install a system never done before. There wasn't to many things different except the tranny is about twice the size of a manual. All in all I'm happy and when someone with a GT tries to race me I simple make the turbo "laugh" at them and then they back off and want no part of my little V6...

got a lil vid tonight when tower gave me a demo of this sts system. not very long, but kinda gives u a good idea of what this thing runs like. i must say i was VERY impressed with how well these things run on just 8psi. its pretty amazing how hard it pulled.

now i must get one!!!

Just image if it was cold....That was a warm run.

Cool vid but I definitely want to see a high quality vid from the outside. Are you running stock cats/tp's/hfc's and did you add a resonator?

tower74 · 11-19-2011, 10:20 AM

It was one of those last minute things and traffic was heavy that night on I70. All stock...well except what STS had sent with the kit ( plugs and new injectors) and no resonator. The only thing I have done to that car was the turbo. The rest will come with time and money.

A/F reading 10.1 @ full throttle? Car sounds good, glad we have a video of this system now. Have fun!

We think the gauge is off...during the last dyno it was showing up around in the 11's and low 12's.

How are you liking the methanol injection? Did you go direct port or into the intake tubes?

blackonorange · 11-20-2011, 02:02 PM

Chinook is your car hibernating right now ? And from inside the car towers doesn't sound raspy at all which is great

tower74 · 11-21-2011, 12:18 AM

Well with a 1 gallon tank it goes fast on high boost. Took Edub370 for a ride and with 25 minutes of high boost it was gone. When I leave it on low boost it doesn't spray.
@ blackandorange....when the rev is at 4 grand it's hurts the old ears but otherwise the sound makes it stand out.

blackonorange · 11-21-2011, 12:22 AM

yes but it didnt sound raspy from what i could tell anyway did you leave your cats and headers stock ?

edub370 · 11-21-2011, 09:38 AM

put it like this, my car with aam short tails, factory resonaters, and test pipes was about 2X louder than this sts system (not in a good way either). is it loud? yea its decently loud, but is it ear bleeding loud? not at all. i think if one was to throw a resonater on before the turbo it would be as quiet as some aftermarket systems

Yeah she's put away for the winter. His car didn't sound raspy it was only around 3800 rpm for mine, I am thinking of getting rid of the resonator and maybe trying resonated test pipes in the spring.

Yeah it's about 4 grand that it gets at little loud or when it's cold. I know you have to missing it with it put up for the winter. I travel a ton and it's like missing your girl but this one doesn't give me sh!t when I ride her hard after not seeing her for 6 weeks.
