slows ya down a little but with superspeed on it's not even noticable.
Just fyi there is an IO that grants stealth and it can be slotted in travel powers or sprint,hover or combat jumping.
I used to run stealth and SS on my scrapper. He was still super fast and nothing noticed him at all, even if he was standing right in the midst of them. It's a great combo.
SS +Stealth IO works to accomplish the same thing. There's even a set that will slot in it. That's what I'm running now.

Stealth + SS is valid, but of course consumes an extra power pick and chews up some endurance. Like the others, I recommend the Celerity +Stealth IO. It can be hard to find at lower levels though.|

Also, be aware that once you toggle on whatever power it's slotted in, it grants you stealth for 2 minutes that can't be turned off. On some of my characters that have costume's I'm particularly proud of, I find that annoying. So on those characters I like to slot the Celerity IO in Sprint instead. That has a couple of benefits. First, I can slot SS with either RunSpeed or EndReduc, and I can control when I want stealth. The downside is you have to remember to toggle Sprint on for a second or two every two minutes to retain full stealth.

Or do what i do: When i'm not actually in combat and want to be stealthy i just leave Sprint toggled on. Of course in combat the IO does nothing anyway. (i tend to do the same thing even without the stealth IO for getting around in the early levels.)

i make stuff...

I have the special sprint vet powers (Power Surge, etc.), and sometimes slot the Celerity IO in one of those instead of Sprint. That way I can separate being stealthed from sprinting, and have a cool looking effect to further suggest stealth.
