Default STS Turbo Dual Exhaust

Don't think this has been asked, or if it has I'm not very good at searching for it... but:

I'm looking at the single turbo STS system and I'm wondering how that works with dual exhaust. I know the turbo attaches on the one side, but what of the other one?

Any information would be great!

it should come with a header with two outlets, one of which the turbine connects to, and one that retains the factory h-pipe, or any other fitting pipes. it comes with an electronic boost controller that you can set at a certain psi at which the wastegate opens and releases the extra air into the pipe.

and for ur fyi, i dont know if ur interested, but granatelli and turbocharged power are making a twin turbo sytem for the s197..it uses two small turbos that can make as much or more boost than a large turbo, and reach the max boost at lower RPM's than the STS big single turbo, which means less lag...not sure how much it is but twins are better than 1

that looks so incredibly weird/awkward. a little turbo in the corner.

This particular configuration makes self installation much much easier.

STS is sweet....I mean if I was you and looking to turbo my GT...i'd be looking at the Grantanelli mentioned above, a Turbonetics, a twin boss setup, or a Hellion
