Just wondering, mainly for the STS users, have you ever worried about having your turbo jacked from under your truck? I haven't seen the STS kit in person so I don't know if they have a lock of some sort. Just seems like it would be a few bolts then gone?
If anyone could fit under my truck then yeah I would probably think about it, but the fact that most people dont know what a rear mount is, let alone wonder why anyone would actually crawl under there to steal parts.. I dunno haha

that would suck....but im with david, if i did have an sts i dont think u could fit under there to get it out....drop your truck, theres your security device
Good point.
How many people are gonna know if you have a turbo under there anyway?

^^^^ majority of people are goin to expect the turbo under the hood, plus half the idiots who see an intercooler dont even know waht a turbo looks like, they just point and say that thing is shiny!!!

I remember when the rear mounts first came out. All the critics were saying this. Have not heard of one that has been stolen yet.

I haven't seen David's truck in person (that I remember) but I've seen Ryan's. I'm not into the three thousand inch drop but NO ONE would get under his truck to take the turbo...my lift barely fit under the frame.
I think they would take the intercooler first before they hit the turbo? It takes a lot to bust the bolts loose on a turbo after all the heat cycles.
