Lot of variables. Could be tune related, poor engine maintenance, or miscellaneous parts missing from the kit causing the engine to grenade. So who really knows, I know that they don’t have or I haven’t seen any rjm blowers on the street or track since it’s Debut.

Why mess around...get a BP turbo kit :)

7psi on E85, with the new 64mm turbo on the heartbreaker dyno:

The only blown motor came from an individual who I will not name publicly that raced the car on a partial tune. That’s right they added boost ignored several warning over and over. I even have video of said person beating on the car without being tuned properly.

Their motor blowing is of their own fault... said person was making 600whp+ on a stock block and over 500ftlbs...

You should get your facts straight... nothing like talking out your butt.. before making claims you should fact check.

Several cars have them running without issue.

1 in NC
2 in Tampa
3 up north

And several being built as we speak.

So out of these, no dynos? No customer here or on FB talking about it?

We're just interested...it's been 2 years we have waited for a dyno, video, or something.

You would think if someone was stomping this kit around they would want to brag about it..at least a little bit.

LOL, this behavior is normal for folks of today. Some people can break an anvil. Stupid is as Stupid does.

Not what I heard - I heard directly from a customer whose motor blew that it was due to him being sent a prototype pulley which had not been properly tested yet. Doesn’t sound very turnkey or finished....

Regardless I hope they work out the kinks and it is a viable option for anyone wanting to go forced induction. I’ll patiently wait for other reviews.

I’ve heard that.

Did the customer tell you that he switched tuners mid tune? Because the tuner who was tuning his car remotely said it wasn’t ready... then randomly I got a text from him stating how much power he made. I asked how did he know... since Martin of RS Enthralpy was tuning his car remotely didn’t even know he was on the dyno!!! When your tuner doesn’t know your dynoing that’s not a good sign.

After being told what he was making I told him he was on borrowed time if he continues to beat on the car. He was making more tq than the stock block can take! He proceeded to race Modded GTRs and beat on the car. Eventually the motor let go... why? Because he switched tuners and didn’t tell anyone. He was running e85 and beating on the car. He was making over 500ftlbs by 2600rpm!!!

Ask any VQ tuner the stock block is only good for 500-550ftlbs of tq and for a limited time. When your tq is over 500ftlbs throughout the powerband no your motor isn’t going to last.

He was given a 14psi pulley and it was told to him that’s what he was getting. It was the exact pulley from zdayz!!! That’s right the exact pulley on a car that I personally beat on for a full week with a proper tune keeping tq and hp in check!

He is pissed because he blew his motor after being warned time and time again by at least three people: me, the tuner, and RJM!

^Yea always two sides to a story! Do you have his dyno sheets or any of his driving videos?

I'm really excited about the RJM setup. Unfortunately its taking some time for everything to be sorted, i could have imagined a smoother "product launch". Nevertheless i cheer for innovation, which means accepting failure and learning from it is key.

goodluck :-)

Among other things I have broken windshield wiper blades so Spooler is correct. I have a special set of skills, if it's out there I will find it , and I will break it.
