Those were all done with no meth injection. So with ripping out the cats, fixing the piping issues and changing out the plugs this seems to be the final set up to get this system to work. With no help from STS I might add. I've had to fix and trouble shoot everything for about the last 7 months. So the kit will put down the power with a few tweaks.
how much boost?

I had massive leaks due to the clamps they send with the kits. I went with a more expensive splice piece, can't remeber the name of the splice kit ($75 a coupling). But removing the cats is the biggest thing I have done that showed the real power of the turbo.


Berk test pipes...no resanotors though... I wish I was able to grab yours

Of course like most of us that are turbo charged. When it's above 93degrees it will over heat quick if I'm getting on it. At the same time with the cooler weather it runs about 180 to 200. I drove the car about 30miles to the dash and the temp never went about 180.

Also the vented hood I have helps realease the heat. I had stopped at a light and everything was blurry due to the heat coming out of the hood.

My tuner was the one who fixed my leaks but I'll ask him what they were.
