OMFG i said call them and he will answer your questions.
I've never been in such a discussion with such a dense person that won't even take the initiative to do the research so he doesn't look like such a dumbass to people that are in the know.

 

he didn't answer them here, so why would he if i called him?

i won't do research? there's none to be done. the questions i asked weren't answered, and i can't get a compressor or turbine map to do the research for myself. ignoring the facts doesn't make you sound any smarter.

 

I know the facts.....i did the research......I'm sorry Ron doesn't run his business off of Rx7Club.com granted it helps get the word out, but he has alot of cars in his shop at all times that demand his attention.

 

oh really now? what research did you do?

and ron has enough time to make stupid comments, but not enough time to answer a direct question? sell that **** somewhere else!

 

He started a thread stating that there was not a comp map available. Why do you keep asking for it? Any ?'s about effici3ency, flow, shaft speeds, etc has been answered aznd the sources cited. Get a life man.

If you, jacobcartmill, bdc, 87gtr etc spent as much time developing you own products/cars as you do bashing other vendors, oyu mightb have something significant to add to the rotary community.

 

I called ron and talked to him....i took the data to some local turbo guys and they gave me their feedback.....IF YOU WANT ANSWERS CONTACT HIM DIRECTLY.....Now don't go and make personal attacks to me.....if you want to do it come on out to indiana and do it.

 

and your **** talking adds what?

 

Edited......The turbo is proving itself more and more...I'm going to be the bigger man and withdrawl myself from this argument. I have faith in Ron and his product. you can take it or leave it. Its obvious you won't ever deal with D-R so why don't you withdrawl yourself from any conversation pertaining to the product as well.

i'll read the topic but refrain from feeding into any more petty arguments.

I'll even be "big boy" enough to let you have the last word.

 

what word?

i asked a question and you went off for 2 days.

 

Ok, so can someone running one of these turbos measure the temperature on both sides of the compressor while running whatever boost level is required to be in this 82% efficiency range? even better post a dyno run of this as well so the mass flow rate can also be estimated

 

we'd probably run a few of our own tests before marking it up and selling it.

 

might only be making $50 on the turbo, but how much is he making on the ssautochrome manifold and wastegate?

 

I am selling my kit for $1600, don't know what D-R sells them for.

 

Ron didn't use a SSAC on mine. I'm now using a tial 44mm w/g.

 

Ron sold KaoticFdr1 the following.

1. AF61R Turbo Kit
2. 1600 cc injectors
3. Fuel Rail
4. Resistors
5. Fuel Pump
6. Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator
7. Earls Fittings
8. Custom intercooler piping


He sold him all of that and installed it for 1,800

It really looks like Ron is ripping people off huh?

 

Thats dirt cheap... time to knock the price down on mine =P

 

Yet everyone seems to think he's making a considerable amount money off these. I don't know why Ron even bothers. He's sells this stuff dirt cheap and basically installs everything for free yet gets so much grief.

 

Ron is a good guy to deal with yet everybody seems to bash his shop...

 

the way he avoids specific questions makes him seem shady.

 

i avoid specific questions hoping to not having explain all thing unexplained. sounds familiar doesn't it? circular logic?

 

I'll vouche for Ron, and I've dealt with Guitarjunkie also. Either way, Ron worked his *** off to get my turbo ready for me, and Guitarjunkie did the same for my engine despite all his other work. Anyway, this thread has gone way off subject... and I just spent the last 2 hours of my life putting on the damn 99 spec lip. Time for food.

 

guys, if you would like to call me out or ask questions, please give me a call and I'll be happy to answer your questions. i'm not going to debate on here anymore.

give me a call 618-222-1201

 

i wasn't looking for a debate; i was looking for an answer.

how do you know it's 82% efficient, and what flow rate and pressure ratio it's efficient at?

 

To the original poster:

Please take pics of the turbo and show us. Then install that bitch and go plow the damned field already!

 

make sure you grind off the john deere logo or it won't work !
