I would spend some time in this section and do some very serious research before going with the STS system... Members here who have installed the STS system have reported a LOT of problems with the STS setup...

STS doesn't have the best reputation on this forum. You might want to search the forums for reviews by people that bought them before you spend your money. There are limited options to tune the LLT V6 in your car. HP Tuners is planning to release software for the LLT later this year so that will help.

Single or twin is up to you which kit you buy not sure if they have a twin kit, tuning comes with it. Before you buy one I would recommend you search this site. I would not recommend sts from the problems forum members have had.

Trifecta supports STS fully. The quality of the kit is what's been the problem with owners.

No do not get a turbo kit from sts please!!!! Save your self ALOT of trouble from ordering there crapy kit I have one and know from experience.

I've have so many problems with mine it's not even funny. I basically changed everything besides the piping and hoses. I'm surprised my actual turbo hasn't given up yet like many other members.

If your look the get serious power like adding meth, increase boost, etc. well get ready to deal with even More problems like smoke issues from to much oil pressure. I've had to rebuild a whole new oil pressure system, put a resevour tank, and a new oil pump for me to increase boost only 2psi w/meth. There kit is so cheaply made.

The tuning by trifecta is also horrible. Vince only act knowledges you if you wanna purchase something from him but if he needs to fix a problem with the tune like removing an engine code or something small, it's a hassle to get a hold of him. He's not even a good tuner he's more of a software type guy.

I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND LOOKING FOR A DIFFERENT KIT. Also I don't think sts makes twin turbo for the v6.

Custom is your best option as of right now, but wait till hp tuner is released. Also I am sure when they do release it we will have a ton of builder's for the llt

I don't have a custom builder you would have to find some that you think would build you a turbo hence the word custom. For tune check this thread http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=330466.
