There was another successful install over the weekend and several people stopped by to have a look at the kit and install. This time on a car with stock cats. Ken is enjoying the kit and hopefully we will get some updates from him here on the forums.

What is a successful install mean. Like has there been any unsuccessful installs yet?

Bobby flew out to California to train Eugene Turkov and to show others how easy this install is.

Guess it doesn’t come with directions

We know it at least comes with “Step 1” because there is a video for it.
“Take hammer to whipple. Beat on it till some parts pop off. Mail whatever comes off to Bobby. Wait for Bobby to do his thing and ship it back”

I think this was why the term “Turn Key” always showed up in quotes when the kit was finally released.

Looks like “Step 2” from his videos is “Fly Bobby in to install kit”. Even though it was also stated that

“It will be set for 500+whp out of the box. The goal is to maintain a 4 hour install time with hand tools in a garage with the car on the ground.”

I’m guessing that should have been in quotes too.

If the install is so easy, how come Bobby has to fly across the country to train people how to do it?

Wow a lot of hate from people who have never seen or touched the kit in person...

First of all Flying out to train someone is a good thing. Bobby is ensuring people know what they are doing and setting up a certified installer network. Installing the kit for customers was a bonus for those who pre-ordered...

As far as taking time on the install that is on the individual installer. I have personally installed this kit more than a dozen times. You can and I repeat CAN install this kit in 4 hours with hand tools... This kit is extremely easy to install however, not everyone is mechanically inclined or qualified... Bobby and I are updating the install instructions and plan to have a very detailed set out for users to reference online.

I lasted 15 seconds, probably he worse video for a install I’ve ever seen. “Hit it on the angle, put it in cardboard, put it between your legs” wtf!!! This is complete garbage, literally a laughing stock.

Instead of criticizing the fact that bobby is flying out. maybe you should focus on the fact that he is helping people and showing good customer service and free labor!

Exactly. A lot of the hate is from the fact that no one has seen or touched a kit in person, despite the fact that this kit was posted up here years ago. There really hasn't been much in the way of results or finished builds to look at. At this point, instead of dyno sheets and finished builds all we've seen is a bunch of "gonna" and "should".

Look, all it's going to take to turn this around is good results. R&D often takes so much longer than originally expected that it seems like it'll never be done. I just think RJM was a little early on their announcements for the kit. There's always a bunch of setbacks on new ideas, so maybe it would be better if everything was kept a little quieter until the end was in sight.

When he said don’t put it on carpet and place it on cardboard or between your legs I lost it.

Results were posted day 1 of the launch... it was even on the flyer at zdayz...

Case closed. It was on the flyer. Nothing to see here, move along.

You guys keep asking for dyno numbers from all these guys like they owe you something... RJM posted the dyno numbers day 1. I was there at the dyno session as well as several subsequent sessions on the same stock motor and trans at even higher numbers. That car went to Zdayz and I drove the car the whole week giving people rides in the car and beating on it. It ran flawlessly and even saved my *** when my diff stud broke on my car on the way home from zdayz...

I am sure I am missing a small details in a step or two but this is the high level install of the kit. its not that hard...

not to jump in on anyone's side here but i've seen/touched this kit a good bit at last years zdayz. seen the car running and ripping with it so it does work idk anything more though.
