Default STS turbo problems

I installed a STS Turbo on my 2003 H2. The installation was not as easy as they made it seem. The guide had pictures from a GMC pickup that was labled Hummer H2 and these made the installation less than pleasant. Long story short, I blew the motor in my H2. The " Complete Kit" was missing a very important part a one-way valve. Has anyone else had problems with this product? I have not been able to get a decent response from STS reguarding the completeness of their kit.

Wow, that sucks. I hope they will do something for ya. But didn't the instructions show the install of this part?

One way or By pass valve?

Are you referring to a Blow Off Valve... Soemthing that vents the boost when you let off the throttle (the pssssttt whoosh shound)?

The complete kit did not include one.....there was one line in the installation instructions to add one if there was no PCV valve on the vehicle. Well no 2003 to 2005 Hummer H2 was ever produced with a PCV valve, so much for a complete kit for that year application.

Hey resqur,

Nice e-mailing with you this evening... Hopefully that helps. Let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

If anyone else on the board has any general turbo questions or need my help, just post a thread and send up the bat signal and I'll be there LOL
