No time slips yet but hopefully will be tomorrow. Also whatever time i get you have to figure a whole second off because im in Utah. so if i ran a 13 it would be around a 12 at sea level.

here what they got
05 STS dynojet numbers
Intercooled
5psi HP:387 TQ:418
6.5psi HP:407 TQ: 449

I'll be running 8lbs with methonal by tomorrow afternoon and then i will be dynoing it. im hoping to get in the 440rwhp range on my stock motor.
What other mods?

that should be the perfect setup.....

imo, when your between 400-475 rwhp, these
cars feel like they "should".

With the sts turbo though, you can't choose what exhaust to run and wouldn't it have problems like scraping something that was in the road and what if there was like a huge puddle and the air filter and turbo got water in them?

the air filter can use a snorkel or a sock...or both, they have thought of that. It sits just as high as your stock muffler does so it is very unlikely you will actually hit anything with the turbo. The turbo is really hot...any water that touches it is gonna evaporate very quickly. You would really only have to worry if you almost completely submerged it. My only two problems with the sts setup is A. the piping is real low. and B. the oil delivery system worries me.

for the thread starter...go to a racing school and learn how to drive your car to it's maximum potential. Your performance for dollar will be just as good as any mod and you will be much more consistant...plus you will be safer. I'm going to mid-ohio racing school early this summer before i go forced induction so i can actually use my car to it's highest potential and hell im only expecting mid 300's to the wheels...

haha turbo lovers unite! Water can get in there but i got a shield built for me so no water gets in. I went through snow and rain for a few hundred miles in Wyoming and too much water was condensating in my intercooler. I drilled to teeny tiny holes in the corner and the pressue pushes the water out. No loss in boost!

Also, the oil pump has an alarm on it

a central floridian!! VMP tuning is up your way. i personally would not use them, however many here will tell you that they are a great company. if you want some serious oomph, go with procharger. stage 2 procharger if you really want it! so how come your warranty is gone at 22K miles? i coulda sworn the base factory warranty is 36K.
