Here there home page:
STS TURBO'S

Here's a place you can order them from.
Canadian High Performance

Here's a video of an LT1 camaro runnin' around an empty parking lot. Obviously, he's driving it like an old lady 'cause even a stock Z28 can spin the tires where as this guy apparently cannot.
STS Turbo Video

I'm honestly interested in this set up but first I want to see an actual video of someone on the dyno running the thing. Also, I just spent like $800 CA. on a set of long tube headers so I'm sure as **** not going to get rid of them for a new pair of stock manifolds. If they can design a system that works with long tube's and show me a video of an actual dyno, they might just find themselve's another custermor.

Hope this helps.

The purpose of the video wasn't to spin the tires. It was made during break in, while datalogging to check everything out. At the time it wasn't made for the web.
You can install the kit with longtubes. You would need the LS1 kit that roughs the piping along the passenger side rather than center. vids and dyno info will be up soon

>do these rear (remote) mounted turbos create a lot of "turbo lag" from being mounted so far away from the headers ?

Not any noticeable lag, i have full boost between 3000-3200 rpms. My partners LS1 longtube STS A4 with 3000+ stall has absolutely no lag.
