I had one and loved everything about it. There were only a few things i didnt love but could live with it. changing the plugs on the turbo side and getting the plug wires right and not sit on the header. eveything else is amazing about the kit. as for what to expect........alot of fun. they sound bad ***, feel bad ***, and will shock alot of people. enjoy yourself

i am planning on getting the same kit. They just look clean and it doesnt have extra electronics or oil pumps to go bad. One thing i want to know is what the down pipe is like. Does it bolt to the catback or do you have to cut into your ypipe and weld it in?

why is such a great looking kit not being used?? everybody swore if someone made a kit that was good they would all buy it and it seems very few have. if the kit would have came out before i bought all my junk for my turbo i would have bought it and been done by now.

i guess its the $1000 less for the STS that sold them. The STS costs the same if you get the IC option though. I want my yukon to look nice along with run, so this kit is worth it to me. If i didnt care about looks and just wanted fast i would do a home made kit like the blazer.

i like the home made idea but when i go off road i want as few of things to be able to hit the ground as possible. i mean if i rear mount then i can put the filter in the bed and go through all the water i want but what happens when that one creek has a rock and it nails the turbo or charge pipe well then it make it leak i get a instant charge of water right to my eng. up front everything is out of the way i might not be able to nose first in five feet of water but i can't do that stock so its nothing new.

how much boost did you run with your setup? did it have any problems at higher boost levels? any overheating issues? is the intercooler able to handle high boost levels? thanks

You could always spend $380 and swap in a D-max IC. They are HUGE!
