Default Turbo Problems... uggg

Ok some ppl know me here but for those that dont I have been waiting for a twin turbo kit for 5 yes I said FIVE months now that never got here. I leave Florida soon so I had to cancell the order and am now in the process of starting ALL OVER lol with a new company and a new performance shop up in the Maryland area.

I promise that once I get it all done I will post up pics and whatnot but sorry for yall that have been waiting this whole time didnt think that I would get the run-around like this.

BTW if anyone knows anything about STS turbos or ELD Performance up in Maryland let me know as they are who I hear is the best.

The quality of my STS kit is great. They do not respond to emails which is frustrating. I've sentseveral. I have not tried calling them. They took about two weeks to get my kit together and shipped to the shop and another week for installation.

I only have the single kit.

hey why not contact fastlane for their TT setup and have it shipped to you? I think they charge like 7 k for fully custom tuned and installation so since youll only be needing the parts, im pretty sure its cheaper. They sell this TT setup to ALOT of people in Houston

Fastlane is the turbo kit that has the turbos in the cats area. I believe they use Borg Warner turbos. Exact same kit puts 900+ rwhp on the owners swapped gt500 motor. Did you call them by any chance? heres their link

I've got the STS twin kit on my car. The kit is very high quality and the car hauls @ss, but like Simon1 said, they can be tough to communicate with. I'm having some issues with my oil return pump, and while they are doing there best to help meout, diagnosing the problem via e-mail is a pain, and they don't keep Saturday hours, so talkingwith one of their techs when you actually have a day off to work on the car is also a problem. If you go the STS route, get it installed and tuned by a tuner that has experience with the kit. I did the DIY thing were tuning is back and forth e-mails with STS, and I am regretting it. Once I get my oiling problem worked out, the car is going to a tuner. I'm done with STS with everything but hardware support.
