What if they take off the intercooler and you could purchase or make your own meth system? Would it be worth a $1000 drop in price?

I think vette owners will be all over this kit. Its a clean install and it good for the guy that really doesn't know to much but wants more. I mean alot of vette owners don't really care where the turbo sits(IMO) as long as it works. 6psi 500+hp is pretty nice. You say the price is high compared to there single kit but you are getting two kits almost.

I bet they make some big power with those long pipe runs at that I.D.
BTW, there was a thread on the vette forum up until today offering a GP for this system for like $5900. Now it's lock up in the moderators forum.

Their are several vette kits out there from PTK, and another thing, the STS system can not be compared to the PTK front mount system or any other front mount TT system. Its kind of like comparing a Yugo to a Bentley

with 2 pipes I bet it's plenty for over 600rwhp.
again most people miss the point of these systems. they are NOT made for the guy that wants 1000 hp and to run 8's. why people continue to compare the two concepts over and over again I don't know.
they are a complete setup for the shadetree mechanic guy that is more than happy with 600rwhp or less that doesn't want to deal with all the issues an under the hood turbo gives you.
