Talking Saw the first STS on a truck!

Well the local speed shop is now a STS dealer. So I went out their to see if they got anything in new and I was suprised. I was asking about a yellow rcsb procharger equipted truck that runs around the area. With shorites, procharger and exhaust he is making 348 rwhp. Which is okay but not far off what some guys running 5.3 and 6.0 with a large cam and headers. Then they told me that they are a STS dealer and they were putting one one truck and was almost done with it!. Man was I excited the first one I saw. It was so preatty the HPC coated pipes with the blue couplings. I asked if they were going to max it out with meth injection NO. Its just the basic kit nothing special . They started it up and had some condinsation in the exhaust, reved it up with no muffler and it sounded good. The truck was a ex cab with 20's with the 5.3. They only reved it to around 3k and the turbo whine wasnt really noticable but you can tell something is there. They were wondering what kind of rwhp number it would put out I guessed around 340. The only thing I really dont like about this place is they dont tune with edit, they do it with the Diablo programmer with the custom tune STS does make a excellent product, but I wish I could afford one, someday.

I didn't like the Predator turbo tune at all, it sucked. Nelson is the way to go for the STS.
