    this is a real thing. they have been proven to be quite efficient on camaros and whatnot. If i had an ls1 camaro or even a GTO id throw this setup on there.

      Thats the turbo system that mounts under the car right? I saw them hook it up on horsepower tv. It works I guess. But they dont make it for our cars. Its a true sleeper. No turbo under the hood. Pretty cool.

              did you even read the site? they put the turbo downstream where the muffler would be

                yeah I did, and i looked at pictures, and read articles, but it still seems just weird...thats a lot of piping for the boost to travel through.

                  exactly

                  a lot of piping for exhaust to travel through to even reach the turbo also

                    ever get under a corvette? not much space to put in a turbo [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/lol.gif[/img], so it fits in where the muffler is right at the tip.

                    i certainly wouldnt go with one. like jeremy, joe, and i were talking about, think about the oil line too. everything is too much of a stretch

                      Yeah. You would need an secondary oil pump to pump the oil back to the engine.

                        for applications were you don't have room to squeeze in a turbo simply.. its all good... regular applications its just an simpler way out...

                          I can make it fit my car....... I've made wierder installations.......









                          Try looking up the AVLB Bridge launcher the army uses, and look at the location of the turbos on the air-cooled v10 twin turbo engine. Try replacing them with the engine in the vehicle.

                            BINGO! One of the systems weak points actually.


                            In my opinion they suck! (I have dealt with them personally.) The oil pumps tend to pop fuses quite often resulting in a slurry of oil shooting out the tailpipe (Which is pretty much like the exducer and bam pipe welded on...) Anyways, we have our STS on the GTO (5.7) and we could only get 458 whp out of it. (On 4 psi thye destroyed 2 engines until we rebuilt it with forged goodness). The tuning on it sucks as well. It needs bigger injectors and a whole slew of other things in order to help it. The tiny ass IC helps but really isnt enough to do the job properly. STS is cosntantly sending us new shit to replace cuz there design has many flaws. I saw one system on a 97 camaro (Lt1) and it seemed to work great...

Pressures and stresses of all kinds thermal and mechanical loading across the board escalate to extreme levels. A Chevrolet 5.7-liter LS1 V8 with this much specific power (horsepower per cubic inch) would be making 2,137 hp
