OMG, 108 pages of non-stop bashing and trash-talking a guy who is simply trying to make an HONEST living. Scott has done nothing wrong to ANYONE. This whole thread is nothing but a testament to the pure jealousy you haters have for a legitimate business and his awesome skills.
Since none of you have posted any real proof of RA's wrong-doings, and instead have resorted to simple downplay of RA's real accomplishments, I will present real proof of RA's profoundly Chuck-Norris-like awesomeness:
First, check out this header he made for my Z. When I asked him why it looked like it was for a 4-cylinder, he proceeded to educate me about equalizing the pressure across the three active exhaust primaries through a reverse-resonance induction force created by the presence of a black hole he was going to weld onto the fourth primary. The fact is, Scott didn't take up Tony's request for a dyno because he KNEW Tony was going to steal his black-hole-inversion technology. So now, I have TWO black holes, one welded onto each of my exhaust banks to help scavenge exhaust gasses. It makes mad power and sound. Oh, and check out the super-awesome plastic-knobbed quick release system (that resembles a dryer hose fitting)- that's RA's new quick-change exhaust option. Kinda like what Tony at Motordyne now has on his Shockwave systems (wonder where he got that idea... cough/RA/ cough....), but RA is the ONLY one to employ PLASTICS in their exhaust technology. Damn Straight!
Second, I wanted a new intake system to complement my new black-hole quick-change exhaust system, and RA stepped up BIGTIME!!! All you suckers trying to get cold air from outside the engine compartment were going about it the WRONG WAY. All you got to do is route the intake into the cab, and then just crank up the A/C, baby!!! He would have marketed this earlier, but he told me Tony was out to steal all his best engineering ideas. Why do think his trut brace was worked on so long in the cover of a crappy shack? That's right fools, Corporate Espionage!!
Then, when I was all done with my surprisingly low gains from my awesome NA mods (who would've thought that black hole technology wouldn't show any hp gains on anything other than JWT's dyno with Scott running it?) I decided to step up and go TURBO. Of course, the guy at RA had me covered with his new TT package he engineered himself to his specs. It also doubles as a potato gun. Awesome!!
Not really understanding how the new RA design works, he simply said he has been engineering stuff forever, and he knew it would work. When I pushed him on it, he finally spilled the beans.... Each turbo/exhaust/muffler/thing has a freaking BLACK HOLE in it, OMG!!!! The awesomeness was piling up in bucket fulls! He then showed me his new compressor wheel secret:
I thought that looked shady, but he said he had done something similar with a piston on a past build, and worked great. So, I was like, hell- I'm sure it will be fine, since the guy obviously knows how to weld:
So, he began to build and install my super-awesome-chuck-norris-approved-stolen-from-nasa-black-hole-technology-that-that also-summons-the power-of-satan turbo kit. He assured me that despite harnessing the power of the dark lord via two black holes, Nancy Pelosi would be easily fueled by 500cc injectors and controlled by a SS box. I asked if he had done anything this awesome before, and he showed me pic of his last install:
Yeah, I know. You're all jealous. Especially you, XKR. Are you Irish, cause I'm beginning to think your last name is O'Hater. I mean check out the sweet welds on this manifold:
Anyhow, I wanted him to install it in the back seat of my new G coupe, under the seat if possible, for a nice ultra-stealth look. RA did awesome work of course, and put it all together in an almost factory-like appearance. He even put some cool flame-retarding reflector fabric around the armrests and stuff, even though he swears he never installed anything on a G coupe and incidentally burned it to the ground. I now feel totally safe putting my child seats in the back.
Finally, he told me not to dyno it anywhere else after he was done, or to post the dyno sheet, cause of the all the haters who want to steal his black hole technology. So, you'll just have to take my proof for what it is.

Note: I have never done any business with RA or Scott, and as far as I know, he is as unlikely to have made any of the work shown in this post as he is to have actually done all of the work shown in this post. His behavior and association with VRT wouldn't surprise me on some of these, though. And Tony is a cool cat who actually engineers stuff, and I hope I haven't screwed myself out of a future discount on his upcoming 40 lb/ft patented invention thing. (black hole technology???)

Hilarious!
i think we should start a group buy on that super-awesome-chuck-norris-approved-stolen-from-nasa-black-hole-technology-that also-summons-the power-of-satan turbo kit

Ok guys I've been gone for some time now because I've been working on moving to Florida but I finally got a break so i sat down and decided to scan and post the dynos. I went to JBA and The Dyno Shop and ran 13 lbs of boost, and also ran 15 lbs at The dyno shop. The numbers say it all, 500+ hp with 500cc injectors. The only reason the torque was off on the 15 lb run was because there was tire spinning. I hope this settles some issues!!

That was an awesome post Will! LOL...i've seen those pics before and the things that people do to their cars are hilarious. The picture of the Civic/CRX with the "cold air intake" sticking out of the hood reminded me of the 4 door G35 guy on driver that planned to dremel his oem hood to make the RA strut bar fit.
Black hole technology ROFL. Tony and I were talking about how Scott is a black hole. He sucks in and destroys everything near him or whatever he touches lol. Good stuff.
