STS kit on a C5 Well I'm finally pulling the trigger and picking up a C5Z a few months out. I was wondering if I could hear from some people running the STS kit on their Vette or Fbody. How's the drivability? Did your mileage go up? How much boost are you running. A V8+ Turbo spool and a BOV chiriping. That is so awesome alone. 
I'm a newb in training. 
Thanks for the feedback in advance!

According to STS, yes 1-3 miles. A more efficient engine equals better mileage. I have no idea what in engine bay turbos do.
Obviously if your dipping into the boost all the time its going to suck your fuel down.
