I just wanted to get some stuff straight before we go discussing the wrong product. I think we will have to see how it all plays out.
I was aware it was a different product. The concern was with the complaints on the RRM promise versus performance in general and how many complained about the way RRM was (not) following up. The link above began 6 years ago, and while the results were somewhat mixed, at least then RRM was following up.
I would still welcome specifics on the Piggy back on a Kizashi - either from a poster who did before and after dyno tests, or dyno info directly from RRM. RRM apparently have it, but will not turn it loose.

let me know if you get the exhaust....i have been thinking of that after intake a piggy.
I did the exhaust when I did the intake and piggy. I love it; it sounds great! I couldn't give you any performance impressions of the exhaust, specifically, because all the parts were put on at the same time (piggy, pulley, intake and exhaust).
The pulley is another part on my list. I've had pulleys on previous cars and they really work well with other mods!

Is the pulley easy to install and does it make much difference? Anyone notice much difference wit hthe SRI either?
I have the pulley along with the other drivetrain mods available from RRM, so it's going to be difficult to report an accurate impression of the the pulley alone. The u/d pulley was the only drivetrain mod that I had on my sx4, though, and it performed as advertised.
I think I'm going to pull the SRI and put the stock box back on this weekend to get a feel for the difference that the SRI makes. I'll report my impressions.
I've got a question for anyone who knows more. I was thinking of moding my kizzy but service manager at dealer said it could affect warranty if there are any problems. When you all are moding are you kissing your 7year/100,000mile powertrain warranty goobye? Not sure I can feel good doing that, AWD 100,000 mile warranty is damn a good warranty! I guess some things are easy to swap out. I could skip exhaust, others could be reversed. Any thoughts?
I love road race tuning parts, the car is faster and haw it shod be, i have the cvt so it need all the tuning it can gate, the gear cooler are on its way so looking forward for it.

Honestly just having probelms with our scanner. Hope someone can relate to that guys. Again look at the threads of people who have our parts though. They are pleased to say the least.

Your parts shipped by the way. Are you ready for Platinum yet?
