STS universal setup

Hey ya'll. Jus recently dropped in my 355 cabr'd motor in my Iroc and love it cept for a few flaws but aint no biggie. Anyway, Ive been researchin about goin boost and I really want to in the near future and ive been reading about those STS universal setups that they sell because they dont sell a "direct bolt-on" setup for our cars. Has anybody heard about them at all or how good they are? I got a 750 double pump carb on my motor, is that big enough? Do I need to up the jets? Intercooler? Im new to this and still researchin on what to do. Thanks for any feedback and help

Re: STS universal setup

Kinda, that what the universal setup is for. I guess you buy the kit and mount it all up but then you gotta kinda run your own piping up to the carb. I know its possible cause ive seen shops that deal with STS put them on older cars with carbs. With todays technology anythings possible

Re: STS universal setup

I think you'll need to switch to a blow-through carb at the very least.
