I'm not gonna sit here and bash because i am not an STS customer but you can read this forum and gather your own conclusions.

Official STS Rear Mount Turbo Discussion Thread - 350Z Forum

In a couple of months if I don't have my SC yet and STS get's a few of their kits installed on the 370z I might still go this route if the results are good, but I am not going to be the first.
Thanks for the post

Well if the 350Z can make 360 HP then the 370Z should be close to 400 hp safely. From that site with the 350Zs I didnt see anyone that had it put on then had bad things happen but I only went about 7 pages into it.

It got ugly with customer service. Some really shady ****. Apparently all that got fixed but daaaaaamn. I read every page. I'm sure they've turned **** around since that incident was two years ago but eh, we'll see.

That's the HR motor. I can only imagine what could be done to the VHR...But that customer service incident hurt them badly.

STS's loss really. If they don't show any initiative then oh well. Plenty of calls have been made to them. After looking at their kit pricing more it makes sense to spend the extra grand and just go with a SC IMO.

Ya I've been tryin not to say much... I'd love to see someone get somewhere with this but who knows if its gonna happen. I know eventually it will but I don't think its going to be in the time frame that I am hoping for.

I'm going to be patient. I'm well ahead of my plans for TT's. Even in stock form my Z and I are world beaters. After 8 months of ownership I'm still enjoying the power and handling and I'm looking forward to having the Z for the entire spring and summer. I am giving STS a pass. If you gave your car to any company doing TT's you would have to wait 4-5 months to have it installed. I don't need to be the first person in my area with forced induction.

What shop has a 4-5 month turnaround time on a stock block TT install?

4 months is a normal turn around for a TT kit I think, maybe I'm wrong...

I treat my customers like gold. I just think it is funny that some of you are brainwashed into thinking 4 months for a simple bolt on twin turbo install is the norm. It is a 2 week job at best, from drop-off to delivery, fully tuned and ready to go.

I think he was more along the line of development but I may be wrong. but if he did mean install then Im sure he meant from the guys that are developing the new kits and you might have to wait a bit. Either way if you are a sponsor then you shouldnt be acting this way. And if your not a sponsor then you should take the shop stuff out.
