As a tuner, I'd be more-than-a-little scared to run a STS kit on a speed-density (i.e. MAP sensor) car. With a rearmount kit moreso than a front-mount kit, the possibility exists for a wide variety of intake/exhaust pressure ratios which will lead to a wide variety of cylinder filling and therefore a wide variety of fuel and timing requirements at the same observed MAP and RPM sites. MAF cars can meter the actual amount of air going by, which will lead to consistent fueling/timing across a variety of intake/exhaust pressures. I'm not saying it can't be done - I'm just saying I would be petrified if someone brought me one to tune on a Hemi with the stock computer.
And anyone who is yapping about part-throttle boost doesn't know how to tune. I've done TONS of twinscrew blower cars (Techco + KB) where part throttle boost is normal and the engines run fine. It's all how you set up the tune...

both of those blowers utilize a bypass valve.
the kenne bell probably has the most sophisticated by pass valve ive heard of on tehse cars as well
by chance does anybody know the history of this car or builder?
I have heard of a car that had the twin tubos on from Michgan and he had a major problem that when the car actually got to the shop in ohio it was leaking oil out of the exhaust but nobody will say who did the work. As it's not this shops style to bad mouth. I was just wondering if the owner is on CT?

The username that posted the video on youtube is KRCPerformance. I'm not sure if they did the install/tuning, but here is their website:
I got that far and I do believe that the turbos were taken off the car and it was rebuilt by .... as the car was a mess from what I have seen in the pictures gobs of oil pouring out of the exhaust and BTW the turbo set-up sitting in a back storage room. They are asking for alot of $$$ to install.
