who is the owner of the EXT, get him on here to tell us about the kit on his truck...I'm in the Detroit area and want a ride

is it an AWD EXT? LQ9?

What are the expected gains for upgrading the turbo?

Just curious to see if the LMS kit is fesable for the SSS, I understand that the lower compression motor might be easier to mod to get results.

anybody can put a kit together and ruin a truck and get some passes to sell stuff, but proof is in the putting, and driving, how does these trucks perform on a daily basis?

there seems to be much more customer experence with the STS people and they are sharing to get a better end result, while a lot of other kits are just that kits...

JMO-I just want the best turbo for my truck...

I'm not sure if the customer is on any message boards but I'll give him a call and see if i can get him on here to talk about the kit.

I have a AWD Escalade as a shop truck here with the kit on it. I can take you for a ride, give me a call at the shop 313-561-5500. I'm here until 6:00

The green truck is an AWD EXT.

The turbo included with the kit should be good to around 550 hp and I don't see a problem getting 700 hp with an upgraded turbo.

Our truck is driven on a daily basis in the summer and driven hard . It has over 10,000 miles, including a trip to FL, with the turbo kit on it and it has been flawless. Driveablility is great. Like I said, come down and I can show you around the shop and show you the kit.

Thank you

-Rick

I am seriously considering this kit for my ss....... need to talk to Allen about tuning for it. I am sure he could take care of it for me.

So I guess there's no chance in hell for a C.A.R.B. number in the near future since the sponsor totally ignored my post

No, that would be illegal.

The kit does not have C.A.R.B. approval, unfortunately as others have mentioned it would take a huge chunk of money to have that done and most other kits that I know of do not have C.A.R.B. certification.
