Not sure if there is a dealer down there yet but just about any shop can install the kit. It's the tuning I'd be really worried about. Please don't let a rookie LS1 tuner do it. Make sure they know LS1s AND turbo tuning. It's not like tuning an N/A or even a blower car. Bad things happen when the tune is not right, even on low boost.

Since the STS can keeps the original exhaust manifolds and doesn't move the cats, would this be likely to pass an emssions test here in California? I know you can just remove it before testing, but I was wondering if we would even have to if you know the guy won't look under the car?
