I've never been to his shop so I couldn't contest that he has one or not.
The problem with scott's dyno numbers (which i'm assuming you are talking about his time attack car) is that he does his tuning on his high power cars on the JWT dyno, so there is no print out.
I don't have a man crush. Scott definitely has his flaws. I'm just a sucker for the underdog lol.
You realize that this combo is good for over 700whp right? I'm sure Doug can post up a quote from your beloved Scott where he's stating that he's built and tuned VQ to well over 700whp w/ just 1 pump and a split second.
Question: how then would this be a potential hindrance and or handicap then?
BTW, are you a really a chick?

Like I said, there is supposed to be a dyno video coming. I don't know what the editiing status is or if filming actually happened. I didn't have time to stay on top of this.
Darren, you the short little intense dude that attempted to get Sam to go back with you to your hotel at HIN?....lol

I saw a G35 with a RA license plate frame heading back home from the Socal Huntingto GTG so I'm guessing RA still has some people backing them. The car was pretty clean exterior wise. The only downfall I saw was the driver driving like a dbag. I'll post a pick later just so this thread has something semi-relevant update.
Were you the little asian boy taking pictures in your stock black Z? Thanks for chiming in chief. I'm at all of the meets kiddo. I can't wait to meet you....

It's been gone over time and time again JWTFMU does not = 500+ HP and reliability.
WTF? Yeah, you're talking about my car. No the car is not "clean at all". It's got a long way to go. The license plate is off the car now, replaced with one from my school.

Scott also knows nothing about his business license. Much less a place of business. You don't find it the least bit funny how he goes somewhere that wont print out a sheet, and makes crazy claims about the numbers he gets?.

The setup is DEFINITELY not desireable for road courses, but very few in the community take it to the track.

I did. It was installed, and I took the car back for 2+ weeks and beat on it before it was tuned. It was tuned at the dyno shop, and I have my graph from the dyno shop.
Scott tuned my car and the other SC g35 he was working on at the same time.
I'm done attempting to protect Scott or argue for him. I was done doing that months and months ago. All I want to do at this point is straighten whatever facts I know are skewed or incorrect.

It doesn't matter if the cars have blown up or not. The parts could made up, used and claimed as new, and ran at the very edge of their capabilities. This is a formula for disaster. Scott may be charging less than the competition, but your not getting a level of service higher than what all the other shops on this site offer. I don't understand how you can remain blind to this. I'd rather pay GTM, SFR, Forged, AAM, etc for an over built car that you know will be done right with real parts by professionals. Scott can't offer that.
That's the ripoff

I'm pretty sure he'll get the same d-bag impression you gave the rest of this forum. Opinion unchanged

Now, as to my vehicle, Scott picked up my car at my place and had me drive him back home in my car, so that he could give me instructions as to how to take care of it, since I am running on stock injectors and a stock fuel pump (and have been for over a year now without problems).

Why'd your demeanor change all of a sudden? Before you were defending Scott with so much gusto and you come back after such a long hiatus and seem real passive all of a sudden. Wonder why the sudden change?

Sorry I meant SS box.

Scott has been nothing but professional when it has come to my dealings with him. I recognize RA is a far smaller shop than most of the other's, but this does not make him any less professional. Some of the best work that I've outsourced on my cars has come from smaller, one or two man shops, and frankly, like RA, their turn around time has been 3x better than the larger shops; has cost far less; and frankly the results have been the same, if not better than if I had gone to a larger shop.

I understand I won't be changing anyone's minds about Scott, since your minds have already been made up for whatever reason, and you guys won't have any professional dealings with him to gain reassurances about RA.
I have never been an RA fanboy. I've gone to other shops in the past, and since dealing with Scott, but I will more than likely go back to RA for more work in the future. For me it all comes down to turn-around-time, cost, and reliability, since my car is my only car and my daily driver.
