Default Hey SRT-10 STS guys

How do guys like the STS turbo kit?
Have you guys found any problems with kit?
And has anyone maxed out the t76 turbo?

I think getting almost 150hp to tires with just 5 psi is good in my book. You have to remember that trucks with big engines have big trans and rear end that rob allot of power. I just had my truck on the dyno and only gained 150hp with a 200hp hit of nitrous.

I'm too worried about warranty to be playing with an STS. It doesn't imply I don't agree with it, I would LOVE to install one. But I know I won't.

Do a search on vtcoa.com quite a few bad experiences with them. If you're serious about putting on power adders I'd contact one of these people depending on location:

West Coast: DC Performance
South: Roe Racing www.roeracing.com
Midwest: Xmetal

Lots of ram owners have good experiences with those vendors. Those 3 have done more viper truck stuff than other tuners combined. I'm not saying there aren't other good vendors, cause there are. These are just ones with good feedback ratings that I know of.
