Spreading rumors? This quote is from my direct phone conversation with Joe @ STS.

I have an sts kit for the most part i have been happy but it does have some flaws. most of wich can be handled upon installation to get the necessary result there are a couple threads on here that discuss all you need to know about the rear mount i.e. pcv catch can, oil pump, and restrictor, wrap the pipes, leave stock manifolds, and make a bracket for the turbo to hang on and for the intercooler pipes, sts says you do not need an intercooler but if you are going to do it get the intercooler it makes a huge difference if you drive in any weather above 65 degrees. do your research you can probablly reach close to the same numbers and have more reliability with a good heads and cam set up. for less money.
