    Ive been looking around, and ive heard lots of good and bad things about installing a STS turbo on my 3.4 5spd. Does anyone know where I can find the actual turbo kit (or as close as i can get to a full kit)?

    Cheers,

    I'm not sure if STS is even in business anymore. The original owner sold the company a few years back and they ran it into the ground. Original owner was trying to restart but I don't know if it ever happened.

    I've heard people buy the CX kit sans the turbo and use a better quality turbo instead.

    I've been in email contact with Rick Squires who says he is working on getting his business up and running again. Another source for the turbo kits is Andy's Auto Sport. There's a lot of info on their site.
