Yes at minimum. More depending on total boost. I hope you are aware of all the rest of the upgrades that need to be addressed when you boost a car. I spent twice the price of the kit new in total with all of the other parts of the car that needed to be upgraded to correctly handle the increased HP just like any other FI car. Then the cost of breaking and blowing up stuff later. Good luck!

You could try contacting Clinton Squires himself to see if there is any hidden serial # or date, but I don't recall seeing http://www.squiresperformance.com
I bought mine used and talked to him before I bought it. He remembered the original purchaser and was helpful.
He apparently sold the company; they went **** up and left him and others holding the bag. Looks like he's trying to bring it back
One of the bad things about STS is the turbo brands/sizes and tune vary with what was available at the time.
I have been very happy with mine. If you get the long deal on it it may be worth it depending on your goals.
And yes, plan on spending a lot more on the ancillary costs…ask me how I know.
Strongly advise a turbowerx scavenge pump rear mounted BTW
