STS Turbo Ok, I posted this in the forced induction section and didnt get a response, so i'll try here. I am looking at a camaro ss to buy. has an sts rear mounted turbo kit on it. The owner told me it has 4.25" of ground clearance where the turbo sits. This seems to me to be a ridiculously horrible ground clearance. I live in PA and the roads arent flat and between that and speed bumps I am seriously concerned. Should I be? What do you guys think.. and if you have the STS rear mounted kit, how much ground clearance do you have? Are there any ways that this 4.25" can be increased? Thanks

4.5 " of clearance sounds about right..i don't like those sts kits myself..would NEVER get one...I have only seen pictures of cars with them and they always look like they hang low.

4" is plenty of clearance wont be a problem.
