the STS doesn't need much, you are doing the right thing with the injectors, tune and intercooler. Hmmm do a search for Scantin I think his name is for the oil issue that most people have then you are set. I still am running the stock STS oil pump but most people change that right away to a Mocal and a catch can to relieve crank pressure. I have a breather on my valve cover and tapped my oil pan so I am good but I my get a catch can just because.

so i think i've decided im going with the d1-sc from epp, they have a complete kit. plus its an easy install and i can already keep the 4.10s and not have to worry about swapping out to 3.42 or smaller....

umm three reasons,
1) i wanted something i could buy a complete kit for under 6300 ati d1sc is 6200...

2)i wanted something that is extremely safe but insanely nuts, i understand i can get INANELY nuts with a turbo set up but i dont want to start an argument of why which is safer supercharger or turbo

3) AND the most important reason BOB at EPP showed me the badass kit...
