Default Interesting Turbo Set UP

STS Turbo

Seems this Company mounts the Turbo in place of the muffler, infact deletes the muffler all together.

Spool up Clip......

Check out some of the install pics for the C6.

I don't like the filter location too much....needs a shield.

I'm think this may be a cheaper way to put a turbo on an S2000 since you don't need a complicated turbo manifold.

I have seen that done on '2 Guys Garage" as well. Looks like an interesting option in a car with limited space in the engine bay.

This comes up about every 2 months.

They systems work well on large displacement engines that don't lack low end torque. (most V8's) The gains are smaller with smaller displacement engines, which don't produce the same exhaust volume as a 5+ liter V8.

For those that call it dumb, stupid, Etc. Wait untill a STS equipped domestic walks all over your S2k.

acut just got this on horsepower on spike today. They did this setup to a 06 c6 vette. The thing def hauled ass and sounded mean. Plus they had no lag whatsoever. Not sure how that type of set up would run on an s2k but from reading the previous posts I assume not so well. Def an interesting setup no the less.

Its pointless on a low displacement vehicle,and It will be more expensive and you'll probably lose 20-30hp over a traditional turbo setup In the S.
