Dam you!!! Now I want one! :crazy:

Now tell me whats so "lame" about this kit?? 128 extra HP aint lame.

 

[GMCtrk]

Why is that LQ4 so weak stock??? those 2500 drivetrains must be hogs.

I think parish dynoed his LQ4 stock at 285 rwhp.

has anybody ever put that kit on a V6 truck?

 

[OrangeCrush]

that cool, Rear mounted turbos are still lame tho, keep it under the hood, and i would be impressed :shake:

Homer J -im sure it would be no problem.

I don't think they would work for a bagged truck, too many tubes running and hanging down.

This tube would be dead :lol:

These don't look like they would be too bad though

 

[Will]

haha i wonder if they have a dragging warranty :naughty: i guess i'll just have to stick to my naturally aspirated engine. something will stay stock on this truck. Hell, i even customized my front cup holder :crazy:

lol, but they cost $1500 more! That's needed for trans upgrades anyway. :anitoof:

where is the intake on those things? in the rear down low? or is it up front with a tube that runs back to the turbo the back up to the engine? if it is down by the turbo i would be worried about suckin in water if i got into too deep of a puddle :nono:

 

[Josh]

the only problem with these that i see is coming in contact with water. i really like the numbers ive seen on these, and the idea of where the STS mounts, but im afraid of it sucking something up. that and on a lifted truck, someone could crawl under it, loosen a few bolts, and there goes 4K$.

 

[Josh]

eek, darn good point, thats kinda scary. i guess dont let people know anything other than its turbo'd and let them think funny things when they see the air filter next to your frame.

too bad there isnt some kinda box you can stick it in that is ported to breathe easy, but lockable and has a snorkel tube to get dry air.

 

[00Silverado]

Fab something up out of diamondplate Josh :crazy:

 

[Sleeper]

just box it in on all sides where theres a chance of debris passing by :think:

and um, dont drive your truck into lakes, rivers ,and oceans and water shouldnt be a concern. allen posted about a test drive in the test car in the rain with no issues through small puddles.


if it floods. park on a hill. :read:

Thank you Demon on the info for the V6 because I might have to look into this next year of purchasing the STS. :rocking:
