which turbo system? Ok i want to get a turbo for my 99 trans am (stock motor). I dont know which system to get. So i figured that i would ask you all. here are some of my goals that i want out of the system, I want to spend no more than 7 grand on the system with install and tuning, i want around 500 rwhp, I want to keep two tips coming out of the back like it is now so that cancels the sts setup (which i like but the trans am just doesnt look right with one pipe out the back.) I have a few others but they are not that important. I just want a system that works well.
Thanks for any inputs.

Take a look at the phantomspeed kit, they make a single turbo ls1 kit for around 4k that will fit your needs.
After you get the kit you will need to buy HPTuners, fuel pump, injectors. boost referenced fuel pressure regulator, boost gauge, fuel press gauge and a few other odds and ends but that pretty much sums it up.

Just fabricate a Y pipe coming off the turbo with your dual tips and go with the STS set up. A muffler shop would charge you only a couple hundred bucks if you use your stock tips. The STS kit, blow off valve, methanol kit, GT67 Upgrade, Tune/install, gauges, and injectors could easily sell for about $6,000 for 500 rear wheel horsepower.

Didn't I see somewhere that you can still even use a regular muffler with stock tips with the STS, if you wanted a different "sound" and the dual tip look?
