Well, everyone on this board will most likely say if you have the cash then go with a turbo... The STS kit seems like a fairly cheap kit and alot of people are sayin that they are going to put out some really good numbers soon. I personally am trying to decide whether to go with the STS turbo or with the Procharger P-1SC kit. Both seem like they are very promising street pounding kits.

STS seems to sloppy for my liking, but thats me i guess. i just dont like the whole thing. i got a vortech V9 on an awesome sale for only 5k brand new. thats cheap considering that they will be over 7k after the new year. they also come with a 3 year warranty on everything. the ATI and STS only come with one. i just received the vortech kit monday and i am not installing it until May 05 b/c car still has warranty and its in storage till end of march.

i would go with the vortech kit thru tbyrne on here if he still has the sale. fast shipping i might add also
