I have a 95 CS with a 3.4 dohc. I was wondering how good are the sts turbo systems? And do you think it would work good on my car?

I've worked on a couple H2s and Corvettes that had STS on them. I always liked how they were set up. I can't tell you how well it would work on your 3.4 though..You may or may not know 10 times what i do.

STS turbo systems are relatively disappointing. They're better than NA, but introduce a lot of extra piping, weight, fabrication, and complexity compared with a front mount system and have inferior performance. Since there is a ton of room up front once you relocate the battery and washer reservoir, I wouldn't recommend STS.

I heard about the sts turbo systems. So I was just wondering on people's opinions about them. But then again front mounted turbo systems seems like it would be less of a pain of a butt.Comment

The TBSS owners who run STS kits have found that they require so much tweaking to work properly, that it would have been easier to build their own kits from scratch... With that said, if I had nowhere else to put a turbo, I would consider one.
