I'm pretty sure you know exactly why/where the hate is coming from.

Well there is scheduled to be several whipple cars at zdayz this year. you can ask the owners about the kit...

This graph is messed up. The obvious issue is with the spikes in TQ. Who wants that? The troubling part is that in the early TQ spikes you can see that the HP curve does not match up with the spike. It should! TQ jumped from 400 to 472 and back to 400 all within a span of just 250 RPM! it was THIS 472 ft/lbs that RJM chose as the Max torque for the pull.

Funny that in the last set of TQ spikes, RJM did chose to have the HP spike as well. Must be so that they could then list the max HP as 533.

It’s obvious one of the lines is being manipulated some and then taking what appears to be serious issues with the kit/tune/dyno, and reporting those as the final max numbers.

Given what I’ve said and considering our last go around with your highly exaggerated claims of power increase from RJM Products and my comments, the ones you repeatedly asked me to delete, it’s understandable that you saying “RJM posted the dyno numbers” isn’t going to satisfy most of us. This isn’t Facebook where things RJM doesn’t like suddenly disappear.

Speaking of the flyer, Ive always been curious but kept quiet about all the “thorough testing” that took place prior to the flyer being posted in June of 2018. Would you know anything about that?

I have seen the kit. I have touched it. But if you had said that the first time instead of this...

... I wouldn't have questioned anything. I was simply asking the question based on your statement.

This should be titled 'How to kill a 370Z'...

Torque & HP curves should be smooth, without 'lumps & bumps'...

I call BS on the whole thing. Bullitt, no offense, but you sound like someone that's being paid to be a shill, all 'no one owes the community a dyno sheet', 'we don't understand', 'there's plenty of done cars', 'the kit is so simple', etc. That sounds like a shill to me.

I wouldn’t put it as bad at the gtm thread. More like the AAM manifold thread. S

i've literally seen, touched, and watch this setup run at zdayz. just saying.

also, i'm not invested/interesting in buying it so i aint up in arms about it. i can understand your frustration if you've been dying to get it or paid a deposit. other than that who cares lol

look at dude's 3D printed intake plenum. he stalled out on that project and i dont see the villagers chasing him
