That's pretty much the case. A lot of us are sitting here with fingers crossed you get what you paid for and it's reliable.

Yup... I got all the love in the world for you, nomodsjk... but I don't have much for this particular builder. Looking forward to the results, though!

If you're dead set on making a certain whp goal, make sure you dyno it at an unrelated shop. I've seen cases where the car makes exactly what the owner wanted while at the tuner's shop, and nowhere close to the goal on any other dyno.

It would probably build some confidence if RJ mfg posted some sort, anything really, of progress from the last progress of some cad images. Anyone can draw something up in cad and say they can do it. Where are photos of what is going on? What ever happened to the hood?

Well i asked that it be dyno'd at forged performance for the final tuning process but i just picked up my car from bobby a couple weeks ago to take it to zdays and before I left it was dyno'd by someone who's not a part of rj-m but in the same group businesses that i believe share a few buildings. I don't think there will be any non-sense going on honestly. Ive met bobby in person now and have been talking to him for months and honestly he seems like a really nice guy to me not to mention im sure he's going to do his very best on my car considering the whole forum is basically watching and my car will have the first kit produced. I realize there are a few people on here who've had bad experiences with him or the shop he used to work for but i think most shops have had some displeased customers at some point and there's always two sides to a story but i really don't know what happened im just keeping my fingers crossed that bobby's going to produce a great kit that everyone can enjoy who's in the market for a bad *** supercharger system. I think everyone can agree that it would be really bad *** to have a whipple kit for our platform that out performed the current centrifugal style kits

I'm hopeful, but the fact is that there has been some serious issues in the past. The issues were not with the previous shop - he was the issue. He posted a long attempted explanation here that didn't go over well. He's also been convicted of defrauding the State of Florida for some amount over $50k. Hope for the best, but protect your cornhole.

I didn't know any of that. I didn't even know of Bobby or rj-m until he was recommended for my engine build. I just know what I've seen from personal experience over the last 6 months or so and he seems like a nice guy to me. Hopefully he makes this kit and it proves to be a credit to the community. I have my fingers crossed. ..i just cant wait to have my car done finally

Yeah, do some research here about his history and you'll understand why there are a LOT of people that wouldn't show Bobby a picture of their car, much less give him money to work on it. You should make a file with all written correspondence, invoices, emails with timelines, etc and keep it on file. Hopefully you won't need to use it, but better to CYA now than bend over later.

You're not letting him or his shop do the tuning, right? It's the Forged guys? You should be ok then.

nomodsjk · 05-31-2017, 11:47 AM

Mike is still working on the hood. Honestly I'd be fine just modifying my current hood if it came to that. I know bobby is on a trip that he had planned for a while which is probably good timing considering he's waiting for bell to ship the first batch of heat exchangers. As for pictures of the progress I don't have any other than the ones i posted on the thread but i spoke to him a few days ago and he told me the kit should be finished in about 4-6 weeks but im just telling you what he told me..i have no proof to show u to back that up

Its all good. I would be interested in the whole kit but I also want to see what a stock motor tuned can do. And how a stick motor sounds with the supercharger on it, if it makes that famous whine that they are known for. And if it can be reliable. All that stuff will play a huge factor in me getting the kit.

TopgunZ · 05-31-2017, 08:00 PM

Yes, Si impeller and it was just over 12psi. If the serp belt would have held the power I would have seen over 14 psi and over 550whp.

TopgunZ · 06-01-2017, 10:31 AM

Yup. Remember to look in the filter box for the reducing collar and the rest of the Tial parts should be in there too.

StillenZ84 · 06-01-2017, 08:38 PM

My new build is basically done just need to get the motor broken in but Im shooting for 7-750 at 20-21 psi.

How fast is that blower going to have to spin for that?
