RnR GT3076R...Unbelievable Product

I want to start this post off saying I am not one who normally would pump someone up like this, but in this case I feel it necessary. I know the reputation that RnR has for customerr service and a few problems here and there with their kits. But I was definitely an exception to the rule. I purchased my kit in the beginning of June, during the group buy, and told Ryan I had to have it by the end of June. Not only did I get my kit before the end of June, I also had everything needed to install this kit as well. Only thing that was left out was a ruducer coupler for the 4" inlet on the turbo to the 3" inlet pipe. I called Ryan and had to the coupler in two days!!!! Ryan has been nothing short of unbelievable and this is coming from a guy that works in a customer service driven industry LOL!!! I know Ryan has a bad reputation in the past, but I really truely believe he is turning it around. Now on to the good stuff, the turbo kit!!!! I have driven it about 400 miles so far and the only thing I can say is (borrowing a quote from Harey Carey) "HOLY COW"!!! My car is so smooth and pulls harder than car I have riden or driven. I haven't had it dynoed or to the track yet, but will very soon. However, I do have something to compare it to, the guy that tuned my car has almost the identical setup but from AMS. His car has been dynoed at 430 on a dyno jet on 91 octane and I was told by him that my cars pull as hard if not harder than his does. The only difference in our kit is mine has the 4" inlet and external dump, but he has cam gears and I don't. Other than that everything is identical, so with that as the only comparison so far that is all I can give you. I should have the car to the track hopefully this Wednesday for test and tune. I can not wait to get it out there and turn the boost up with my race gas map. Sorry to be so long winded, I will have pictures up later today (need to clean her up first!!). Thanks again Ryan!!

Allen
Happy RnR Customer

Coudn't agree more, yeah Colorado is awesome not the altitude though LOL!! I will be dyoed at MAC on their AWD Dyno Jet. My mods are :

B&B TBE w/cat delete pipe
RnR 3" Inlet pipe w/HKS filter
Walbro 255
RnR 780's
HKS 272's
Hallman MBC
Turbo XS FMIC w/upper 2.5" Pipe
Turbo XS Minibattery
Forge Recirc BOV
ARP Head Studs
ACT Street Clutch
Beta EMS, similar but more advance than UTEC
RnR GT3076R Turbo Upgrade

Oh and I am getting full boost by about 4400 RPM, not bad at all considering I am at almost 6000 FT above seal level and on 91 octane.

That kicks *** man! I'm still trying to work some bugs out. Had some downtime when the mani needed to be repaired buit it seems to be doing fine now. I'm not sure if Richie talked to you about using your stock FMIC to test and see if my FMIC is leaking through the badger hole from last year. One of these days things will be back to normal, I hope.

Yes he did and it is all yours Steve. Hopefully that works for you, I know you are very frustrated.

Thanks Allen. I appreciate that. I just need to use it for testing. Richie is stoping by today and we are going to trouble shoot a few things. If everything checks out then I am at a total loss. It just wasn't meant to be.

kit looks good but it looks like your coolant line is actually touching the manifold. I would think that would head up your coolant temps just a little bit. This is the first kit I have seen and the quality looks really good. What did you pay for it if you dont mind me asking?
