I think if STS were that bad, This would not have been the first time I would have heard about it. They also cater to everyone. Seriously, if you have an exhaust, They can make a kit for you.

I Know your possibly the Smartest guy on here man........ But did you see or even read the part where he said he wanted to BUILD HIS OWN !!! Your the one smashing Rear mounts yada yada... After a better look at your pics if i didnt know better that motor on the stand has a Blow Threw Carb...Originally Posted by r.barn
STS should be out of business for all the crap I've seen about their kits.
My tuner was a dealer for them, and after almost getting sued the 2nd time,
dropped the line and designed their own kit.
Every time I've seen one being installed I was thoroughly unimpressed with
materials used, routing and design. ..... just say'n
If the truck guys are having good luck with em, then I'm knock'n on wood for you.
Anyway, back to topic. A 60-70 mm turbo is good size for a 5.0L motor.
and right back at you Casey
Speaking of a ****ED UP design....... I want to see the part in that book that talks about what a POS a Blown threw twin turbo setup is in a street car...
Every kit has its own flaws. I honestly have yet to hear about flaws with STS other then the oil pump that comes with the kit. Thats always easy to upgrade though

While I agree, a rear mount system is good, and will work, and usually work well, they are not for an all out drag application and if you run it in any sort of bad weather, i really wouldn't recommend a rear mount. just like anything else they have they're place. STS is a good company that produces good kits, however with everything you'll always have issues somewhere on the line, no one has 100% success with 0 failures. The more complicated you make something, the more room for errors there are.
You'll get differing opinions from just about anyone you ask really, chose what you think will be best for you and your application.
