If you have any questions please give me a call. 713-498-5758. My roller coaster ride with the turbo install is over and I have a perfect system, no thanks to STS. The funny part about getting it finished with almost 385 horsepower ( see my dyno on my pictures) I am longing for another project and I am selling the truck. It's a 2004 with all the bells and whistles and about $10,000 to get the turbo perfect. I don't know what I'll sell it for but, it's a one of a kind. My next project will be a twin turbo G35 and I'm going to let the turbo masters at SCI in San Antonio to all the work. These guys saved the STS kit from disaster and I wouldn't do another kit with anyone else. They have the engineering and tuning expertise to make the job flawless and I don't have enough good things to say about them.
The problem with STS is now that yu have the Turbos installed and working great ,no thanx to STS, who will replace repair this Turbo blower when it needs it. STS doesn't have it anymore I'm told.

I guess, sell your truck and unload it on someone who doesn't know better, while it is working great? Someone who likes the immediate WOW factor of all those Ponies?

I imagine he's sold the car by now, given that you're replying to a post in early 2006.
