MY old 60-1 had a hard time keeping up with the 6.0, but there was very little lag as far as a STS kit. now I have the GT67 and run 12 psi with the 6.0. I think the GT67 is a good choice.

 

Its hard for me to post pros when comparing to other systems. I don't have nor ever did have anyone else's FI system on any vehicle.
What I can tell you is the system was easy to install by a first timer.
It took me longer than I thought it would, but my buddy who is an engineer also helped me do the install.
Whenever you get two engineer types together on a project there seems to be a lot of takling about what to do when and why even though you have clearly maked installation instructions.
My truck was up and running that night and we went for some test driving around the industrial park where I work. Systsem works great at the 5psi base kit level.
Its easy to upgrade too. Just costs money like everything else.
The only other real gripe I have would be the quality of the hose clamps.
I have since replaced allot of mine with T-bolt clamps for peace of mind.
Never had one pop off or leak.
Seems like an extra $100.00 added to the base kit price and being provided with the better clamps should be done.
There are allot of hose connections in the kit but it really only takes a few minutes to check them all every week or so.

 

I have to tell you that although you may hear a lot of conflicting information the STS kit is awsome. I tow ALL the time and I am OFF -ROAD when I tow. I had to move the filter up into the bed for deep water and I only tow with low boost (5 psi).

You can look at my sig at the bottom to see my set up. If you want to PM me I can give you some real world stats. (EGT's, A\F, Tranny temps, engine temps, HP \ TQ etc.)

 

I agree those clamps suck. But I had a boost spike of 22psi and the pipes didn't blow off!

 

What all is NEEDED to install the sts kit, and make it run right.

 

a good tune, larger injectors and a larger fuel pump really woke my truck up from the stock fuel system, some guys can get by on stock fuel system at 5#, 04s are supposibly notorious for weak fuel supply.

 

Sorry I forgot the question earlier. The old style piping has the wategate close to the turbo inlet. The newer style has the wastegate about a foot or so back and has its own small tailpipe for the wastegate. The old style had the wastegate venting to the turbo's exhaust. This is where you would get condensation running down into the wstegate and freezing when very cold temp happen.

 

thanx for the reply, i guess ive got the old style piping, no problems with it, but i always want to have the latest refined version, i guess when i order my intercooler i'll have em send me a new pipe.

 

Can anyone post of pic of old vs. new?

 

There's the new setup:
