APS recommends filling to the "L" on the dipstick. I have been told, by my installer, to fill it to between the "H" and "L", which I believe is about 6-6.5 qts.

A TT has no bling factor as you can't even see the turbos. TT will put out a lot more power. The wow factor is all that power you will get.....nuff said.

If TT is withing the budget then opt for the APS TT kit for sure, as an out of the box turn key solution..
i will tell you this kit eats oil like nothing else.. watch your levels and maintain it properly or you will pay! trust me on this other than that.. get the twin turbo.. its soo much fun its unbelievable!
I have the APS ST and have now replaced the: boost controler, unichip with EU and about to replace the blow off valve. If you are going to run a ST PLEASE go TN and save money and lots of time and hassle.

Why do you say this exactly?
I have now put about 2500 miles on my APS ST with no problems. In fact, a rock took out my oil pan, which I had to replace -- it look like it was shot by a gun -- and it still runs like a train. (As a separate point, I have an AT and the install was more difficult; i was anticipating problems with the kit, having read Beastie and Tig's issues; however, no problems to date and I would recommend the kit.)
It was professionally installed by an authorized APS dealer. I have no doubt that they will stand by my kit if any problem occurs. Indeed, they will be installing my new bbk, coilovers, and Kinetix SSV.

I have to say the commnet about the Single Turbo kits being "maxed" at 400 is about as wrong as it gets. The kit as shipped from Turbonetics can run in the 400s easy and with bigger injectors and tuning has pushed 470 RWHP and 530 ft/lb of tq on a built motor car. And thats stage I. Stage II which begins R&D next year by Turbonetics will be making 550 RWHP and 530 ft/lb of Tq at 15 PSI. Built motor of course.
