Question trt turbo

hey guys i looking in to getting a sts turbo kit from them and i have a few questions.
the kit comes with the sts kit plus lucas 42lb injectors,autometer boost and a/f gauge with the pod for 3995 shiped is this a good deal?
and i was wondering about a fuel pump upgrade.
will the injectors that come with it be ok for the base kit boost?
and last my car has hypercoil spring on it and i was worried about scrapeing but i also drive very carefull like pull in at a angle and slow on speed bumps.

thanks guys

I would put it back at stock height. As for TRT... call Billy, you will be pleasently suprised! He will talk with you as long as you have questions. It seems to me that you are looking at the base kit.... I would spring the extra bucks and go with the fuel pump... 60lb injectors and a FMIC. If you cant afford it right yet... save your money

In comparison, STS sells just the base kit for $3995.00 plus shipping whereas I am selling the kit, injectors, 2 gauges, pod all shipped for $3995.00. THere will be some that will match my price, but none that you can call at night or on weekends to ask questions or take as many calls from you as you need to make if you are installing it.
Feel free to call with any questions.

cool guys. in going to look into a kit soon. i dont run at the track that much so im not worried about the rear but i am about the tranny though.
i like the power for the street and freeway mostly.
p.s.with the kit i mentioned how much power at the wheels and what would be an estamate for the quarter with just a set of nittos.?

Usually a stock LS1 with the base kit will make around 400rwhp. 1/4 depends on m6 or a4. An a4 with a stall will yield much better times with the turbo.
