Cool. The starting bid is ONLY $6k. :idea:
And the "Shippin" is only $150, lol.

I wish that STS system had a better track record on our trucks. It really intrigues me. I just don't want Viper parts all over the highway.

Eh, for the most part the stuff stays inside the engine. When I pulled my engine, the oil pickup rattled like a maraca when I shook it. I'm still amazed that the block wasn't damaged given that eight of the pistons/ring sets failed.
I think it's unanimous though. It takes real engineering/tuning and aftermarket engine management and fuel system stuff to make it a viable option. I'd also opt for an aftermarket intake.

I could tune that STS if I had one.

Why are you getting rid of the turbo....???
Its blown up on every truck (destroyed a few pistons) except one.

Basically it scares me. If I knew more about tuning, fuel management, etc then I would stick with it. However I'm not. I love the sound and the way the TRQ throws you back. I'm just tired of worrying about damaging my engine. So far I have put 20K miles on it with the turbo. I have also thought about just selling the truck with the turbo and taking a loss. But then what do I get? The only thing I want is another SRT-10 or maybe a GC SRT-8. But the guy who is selling this kit has it listed to high. I new one is around $6800 and the VEC3 is about 1200. So 8K for all new. 6K for used is not enough off. Hope I answered you question.

Not true. There are others that still run. We only know of the few on the truck club that have blown theirs up. But you are also talking about guys running over 5 psi, propane or no tune.
