We're giving you the best advice you are going to get....ignore it or not...probably doesn't matter to any of us but there is a long history of people being disappointed with the STS kits.

FWIW, we are removing a STS twin rear mount setup for our HPS Twin Front Mount Turbo Kit. One of the turbo's is leaking badly and the oil pump buzzer wont shut off, probably due to a bad oil return pump.

I knew a guy here locally with an STS kit... Total junk. He was always replacing flanges, hangers, a turbo, oiling issues, etc..

You should really listen to the people here telling you to stay away from STS..

on other cars, I've seem then work great. on the 5th Gen Camaro, they just suck.


/sigh -- just realized the thread is a few months old.

I did for about a year with turbos (19000 miles since I put the kit on July 2011) from slidell to N.O. But now I have a second car. I have the eboost 2 boost controller because I asked for a 6 psi spring with the kit instead of the 8.5 that normally comes with it. And with the boost controller I turn it up to a little over 9 and I have a street slayer triple. Stock everything else.

Chris

its true. this is my car that he is talking about... So the whole story, blew a turbo in less than a year, never raced with the system but did have a few strong pulls. Shortly after I replaced the turbo the pump started acting up, got fed up and HPS is now working on my front mount kit. With the STS kit i had 585rwhp, they assume I will get 700+ with theirs...
