BACK from Middle East with pics~
Eric, it's not the filter I'm worried about it's the oil line... it has failed on so many people which in turn burns up the turbo among other things... I mean from what I have seen these systems have failed on 50% of the people who talk about them in any forum, that's all vehicles.

using an AN braided line is a better idea than a rubber return hose. I have seen a lot of STS systems in person, and they are not a cheap kit. People looking to complain will be the ones to find forums and do so. Most who are happy are out driving them.
Hmm good point Eric. I will look back into it thanks. I guess I will hold off on exhaust and gears then, Blown didn't you mention 3.55 gearing is better for turbo? Why is that?
You decided you didn't want the turbo, so I didn't think it was that big of a deal. If you change your mind, 3.55 gears will surely benefit you up top. If you want to get out the hole harder 4.10s.

turbos take some time to "spool up" so the higher gearing will allow a better top end pull. keeping your RPMs slight lower than a Low gear would. With a low gear like 4.10 you would spool up and have to shift, then take the time to spool again. having higher gears keeps you in the powerband longer.

Man, you guys weren't kidding about these wide tires throwing up dirt... my truck gets dirty instantly no matter where I go.... I didn't want to do this but I ordered fender flares to see if it helps. I think they look great on our trucks but they seem too off-roady for my look... Oh well had to do something. More pictures this weekend with the headers, shocks, brakes put in.
