STS Questions.... Im gettin ready to order my sts kit but i have a couple simple questions...
1. I have sportline springs on my car now, and i know thats WAY to low BUT what springs are good enough? Or am i just goin to have to put the stock ones back on?
2. DO you HAVE to have a aftermarket fuelpump or is the stocker good enough for about 475hp?

Lowering prings are NOT your friend. See pics of my STS with STOCK springs.
If you have any Q's on the install, feel free to PM me.

i have the walboro 255 in-tank and i have SVO 42's in there. i made 472/501 on 7.5 psi. i dont think lowering an STS car is good but i will eventually do it myself. but of course i also want to go front mount too.

i believe that my AFR was 11.9 if im not mistaken.... i could be wrong.... it went 472/501 with 12.0..... then the FAST 78mm that was on it started to crack due to the way i installed it 
and the Granatelli MAF was throwing the tune off. so now its all stock
