STS + SFCs?
Has anyone installed a STS kit w/ diamond-type SFCs? I have SLPs and I don't want to give them up for a STS kit.
If so, can you post or email pics of how you did it?
Thanks.

but they are probably so expensive because they are unable to determine the market for them along with the market for the STS kits... as its a new thing and most people would normally want the turbo in the front of the car., but hey you figure all the people that have gone rear mount up here and that have wanted SFC that they would reduce the price

Ask Billy at TRT, but I think I read something about STS was coming out with a kit that works with the sfc if you already had them welded in. I think was going to added into the options/upgrades that you can get when you order the kit.

sts said the pipe connects right up where a sfc would go i got the kit the pipe is beefy looking.but you cant have the passenger sfc connected still.
