Default change to turbo setup?

so i have the money for one of these two setups and was going to buy a procharger kit and currently still want to but after doing some research on turbo vs super i want to ask the rest of ls1 nation there opinion. not looking for a super vs turbo battle thread just honest info. was going to do procharger d1sc on 8 rib system but ive seen two turbo setups that caught my eye. the infamous sts and kentucky turbos a/c street strip setup. heres the facts. i have an 01 ss with lid, 85 mm tb, bbk ssi intake, bbk lt's and a cutout with a corsa catback. i want to make close to (hopefully above) 500rwp and i want plenty of low end torque, will be dd and will be a street car never seeing the track. so people with either of these two turbos how was the install and what was needed that wasnt advertised.

STS is garbage. Call Josh @ KYTP.

are the KYTP turbo kits pretty straightforward to install, like a procharger kit is?

I'm still trying to decide on an F1 series procharger or a KYTP turbo kit myself.
