This system looks amazing. SuperCars Exposed had an episode with a sts twin turbo C6 corvette that sounded and performed incredibly.
Would love to see some S197 videos if possible

google that kit and u will see some bad things. some problem with oil return pump or something kept failing and they didnt end up getting a fix for it and just stopped replying to the guys who were having the problems, think there was 4 or 5 of them that had the same issue and most of them took the kit off the car completly. They said when everything was working fine it was wicked though.

There are some good reads on it.

I know of another kit that is coming out summer time that is bad *** and TT but it cost 10k lol but is a nice kit and capable up to 900rwhp so the 10k is well spent if you plan to go big.

Read about a few blown motors with that kit but most were tuning problems....anyone care to chime in from the forum?

Never really heard of any S197's with the STS kit... I think I may have seen one on here a while ago.. . There are already quite a few proven turbo kits out there for our S197's. I would defiently try to get some good solid info and reviews on that kit before I would go for it.

seen one guy locally that had the single turbo kit on, he didnt dyno it yet or anything so no real info. but how it mounts on the back like that, i would think that there is a bit of turbo lag needing to push it thru the pipe all the way back to the engine.
