need underside pics of sts
Ok heres the deal i want to get an sts but my frame is only 3in. off the ground and i live in florida and i don't want to suck up any water.

A few folks are running the STS with a slammed truck, someone should chime in.
STS makes a filter relocation kit that will move it further up in the wheel well. Or some have made custom air boxes inside the bed for even more protection.. Lots of options for you! I'm guessing you don't drive around much in really nasty stuff ( sounds like you have a nicely modded truck ). Only time a few folks have sucked water was in very heavy rain and standing water. EC trucks cause water to run down between the cab and bed right on top of the filter. Something as simple as a deflector above the filter where the cab/bed junction solved the problem. |

On the subject of the post, if you are going to run an STS kit on a slammed truck as long as you are running some type of filter relocation kit I don't think you will have issues. Think about all the Camaros, Firebirds, GTOs, and Vettes with the STS kits, they are low to the ground too. Stay the hell away from deep puddles anyway. :judge: |
The filter on mine is just as high if not a little higher as where the stock filter mounts when measuring to the ground.

not to change the subject but that's a nice install of your boost controller, i 'm going to hook mine up too and also wandered where to get my reference from,the sts instructions show off the turbo but i have been told to get one from the manifold, where exactly is yours being taken from?, i want to be safe.

I have mine TEE at the BOV hose.

I installed my controller here, out of the shit zone. http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a18...1/DSC00599.jpg |
