Default STS turbos

Anybody seen those remote mount STS turbos? Very cool idea and easy to install.

Yah they have been out for the trucks and fbodys now for a few years.. You can get the upgrades kit with a front mount IC..and bigger turbo. works awsome, makes great power.. If ya have a hot rod truck check out performancetrucks.net.. awsome info over there... John

For the price of just the base kit they are hard to beat, 6psi on a stock c5, would probably put it in the low low 12's

I installed an STS kit on a Firebird in my shop. The installation is straight forward and it made good power. I was surprised at the lack of turbo lag with the remote turbo. They seem like a well engineered product.

I cant believe they only lose one lbs of boost on the trip back from turbo to intake.....and pick up -50 degrees(ish) of intake temp. My silverado vortec max would love one.
