![]() The turbine and the compressor aren't using the same air. I can't imagine chunks of cat hopping between housings ![]() You can look at a picture of a turbo and pretty quickly figure out that core chunks aren't going to wind up in the intake. ![]() |

A) loose pieces of honeycomb floating around B) significant increases in backflow and it becomes technically possible for cat material to flow back into the engine. |

Do not buy from STS turbo they take months to finish their bolt on kits on any car it took them 6 months to put on my turbo kit on my car and they wanted full payment within 2 weeks i waited half a year for their basic kit!!! And they would not give me discount is costed over $14k every week after the first month i constantly contacted them and they kept saying the car will be done next week they kept saying for 6 months!!! WTF these guys are lazy,slow and dont give a sh!t about their customers. I want to know can i sue them for having my car for so long and charging me more then their estimation on the price and telling me it would be done in 3 weeks and they kept telling me it would be done the next week for 6 months.
im sorry guys my grammar sucks im just really mad at them. |
