Wow, that sucks *** that it caught on fire like that. Brady's car did something similar and they had it looking the same so it can be done. Good luck on the rerebuild.

Damn man. Sux it got burnt up some. I think you can get those halon(sp?) fire systems for about $400 & then route several small nozzles in different places sprayin at different angles. I know some race cars use these on their interior & engine bay. The tubing is pretty small & would be easy enough to hide with your fab skills.

stock engine it made 508, but it sucked. it wasn't tuned right, and that 500 was not reflective of it's output. then i built the 347 (nothing special), and took it to cartek for the tune. they are top-notch. it only made 440rw, but was much better than the previous 500. a couple months later i sold it all because the STS was way too much of a headache to me
What was the bad's on the STS???

Hey man I got a question....why did you switch your front mount turbo set up from the battery location to the second located in the middle of the engine bay? Also what kinda power did your car make with the turbo located in the battery spot? any cons? Im thinking about fabing up my kit to put it where yours was in the battery spot got any feed back?
