Best thing about this is no intercooler needed, but seriously not worth it.

Maybe if this was somehow set up as part of a twincharge design with a big roots blower under the hood to get the car moving... I dunno, that or some nitrous.
incorrect. I had one on a 350 and it made more power and torque at the same psi than a turbonetics kit with a similarly sized turbo. Lower IAT's allow you to run more timing. And with regard to the piping, it's a straight shot and if you line up all the piping in an sts kit vs. say a greddy kit you'd be surprised at how little difference in length of piping there actually is.
