After 10 pages it seems to me like you have a turbo with nothing around it to support it - I mean you have a turbo and a stock clutch for now - granted new clutch on the way
But, you get your new clutch then when your back end breaks and you save up for another year you can get your 12 bolt - then when you think your set, have fun replacing more stuff because you spent the money on a turbo instead of setting up everything else first
You see why sts turbo guys get so much hate - Theres only a few that get them and have done them right
Seems to me your only a street guy with the same amount of intelligence
No offense I just think this Nick guy and others talk more sense (experience)

you have a very interesting reply. you can break a stock clutch at any given amount of power...... my stock clutch lasted with 470rwhp for almost 1 year...... the factory says it shouldnt last over 400rwhp....... but mine lasted with 470. it also lasted at 500rwhp for 2 weekend with about 8 or 9 races on the highway....... and the minuet i bolted on the turbo, i made over 500rwtq every dyno pull
STS has nothing to do with how i set up my car. seeing as you are a member that hasnt realy posted that much on tech, look in the Forced Induction section and you will see other people with front mount turbos making less than me(given they dont have a built motor). I dont know why people claim the STS kit doesnt do anything for you, because i've seen people strap a procharger on their stock motor and make within 10rwhp from my stock STS results...... and my car ran more efficiently.
power is power my friend..... the only difference is how you get it. ANY one can spend 1k and get a N20 kit and be bad *** on the bottle....... but thats only when its full. my fitrst tune was $600, that hurt my bank for a good bit, but i needed to have it. turbos are expensive but VERY cool when you set them up

im the 200th poster...... awesome.
power is power my friends, we'll see what happens i guess
would it've been better if i was a H/C LS1 on juice? would people still be talking about the STS? so confusing. since all you guys hate STS kits, i should trade mine in and be turboless......
