Benefits of Remote Mounting





Ease of installation. STS turbo systems can be installed in 4-6 hours with standard tools and average mechanical ability.

Performance Sound.  The turbo acts as a muffler and sounds like an aftermarket performance muffler.  Turbo spool and rushing air from the blow-off valve make a unique sound that will turn heads!

No need for major modifications to your vehicle.  STS systems are designed to bolt on using factory mounts without cutting or modifying your vehicle.

Increased gas mileage.  Unlike a belt driven supercharger, the turbo utilizes "wasted" energy leaving your tailpipe.  Most of our customers get 2-4 mpg increase in gas mileage.

Lower underhood temperatures.  No need to worry about melting wires, hoses, or other components.

Easily converts back to stock in less than an hour.

More room under the hood.  Future repair work or modifications will not require the expense of removing the turbo system to allow access to any of the engine components.

Cooler oil to the turbo.  Cool oil is better for both the turbo and engine.

Approximately 500F lower turbo temperatures.  Eliminates the need for a turbo-timer, which allows the engine to run after the car is shut off in order to cool down the turbo and prevent oil and bearing damage.

Denser exhaust gasses drive the turbo turbine wheel more efficiently.

Built-in intercooling.  Intake piping provides ~50% intercooler efficiency.  There is no need for the expense, pressure drop, and installation problems associated with a front mounted intercooler.

Turbo is exposed to ambient air rather than underhood air.  Allows for better cooling of turbo components.

No need for expensive headers, mufflers, or exhaust systems.

Turbo is closer to the tail pipe outlet.  Provides a better pressure differential across the turbine wheel which promotes better flow across turbine.

Better weight transfer.  Increases traction because the bulk of system is mounted in rear of vehicle rather than up front.

Less noise in the passenger compartment.

Quieter wastegates, especially if vented to atmosphere.

Better engine cooling capacity.

just seems like you waste a lot of power pressurizing the intake pipe. that's a lot more air to push up to 7psi than with a 3 ft pipe.

Thats exactly what i was thinking.

With that said, if the pros out weighs the cons then it might not be such a bad idea, i mean theres no question that the whole setup will run cooler.
 
-wont pass emmissions, no muffler
-will lag like crazy from having to push the air 408975987 feet to the front of the car.
-better traction by putting more weight in the rear? :bo:
-good luck with lowered cars, now you wont be scraping your muffler on the groud, you'll be scraping your turbo all up.
 
Man, they really like to think differently:

"At the smallest point where the gasses exit and hit the turbine wheel, the hole is no bigger than about 1" in diameter....So sticking larger diameter pipes and high flowing headers doesn't make lots of sense when you have a 1" tailpipe hole."

"So if you are only concerned with Peak Dyno Numbers the supercharger does produce good "Peak" numbers, but if you want "Full Boost" across a broader RPM range along with those high "Peak" Dyno numbers. The Turbocharger is a better solution." (note: they generalize all SC's from just centrifugal types performance)
 
Yea, this is quite possibly the GAYEST Thing to ever be produced. I'd most likely buy a fucking electric supercharger before I bought this damn thing.
 
um it would hot the intake pipe is run alongside the tail pipe all the way to the front of the car and at 4-6hrs you can install a bolt on kit. and what are there plans for oil run 15 foot lines? intake air? dirt filled crap? wet days then what?

They have it on a tacoma blowing threw the md and water to prove it was safe. Thres video on there web site of it.

Not to defend there product.
 
ya it a video of 2mint in mudf and rain what about when you hit a large puddle and when the filter is not 100 brand newand freshly oiled
