I really can't believe there's this much crap still being talked about the showing of a brand new untested set-up on a car that isn't optimized or even designed for the strip. It's no wonder AAC has stepped away from these posts. If I were them I'd stay away from some of this crap too. Instead of waiting for them to get it all sorted you beat them with a stick and I think it sucks. I just hope if a regular shmo finally does install the STS they aren't afraid to post results due to the attitudes shown by the same few that want to bust everyone's balls.
And no, I'm not addressing this at you, ALLTRBO. You have been helpful in trying to bring to light some of the variables and questions that need to be addressed.
We really, really, REALLY need to remember that this, as far as anyone knows, was the first STS install on this V6. We also should remember they were in a time crunch due to a deadline and shipping issues so I have no doubt it wasn't sorted out, yet. If you've ever driven a car down the quarter whose suspension(I do believe they mentioned having to do the slower launch because of this)/tires(I do remember them offering it up) are way off it sucks. Slower launch means less initial boost built up. Finally, remember it was put on a show-car for a company that has no interest in blowing it up with less than 1K miles on it. We still don't know if the tranny/diff can take this much load. The masses asked for videos, they were provided.
