Holy moly, I don't know how he cleans them so thoroughly, they look better than brand new MHI sets. I know he is sending out the next batch of Twos to get machined Monday, I hope that means they are next
You won't be disappointed. There isn't a builder for this platform that cares more about their product than Rob imo. Probably one of the nicest guys I've ever met and can't say enough good things about the experience I've had with this purchase.

I'm running RB TWO's at 27psi on an E40 mix. Should be somewhere around 565-575hp according to Rob Beck and my tuner (V8 Bait).

It's pretty much at the limit of the stock DI system....with PI it might make some more.

Yes, I'll check everything including waste gates before they go on, but I've heard good things about this particular set

Yes they are. And the pure 600s have the exact same cast, the only difference is they are assembled in US so most likely better quality control and actual balancing

Nope, I haven't had to email him in a while. Maybe he's just swamped? You can also try calling the shop...I've had good luck reaching him there also.

Justin started a new position as a doctor and just recently had a newborn. He is retired from tuning our cars.

Yeah, not the answer you wanted to hear, but it is what it is.

If any of you decide to run port injection...... only get the motiv Reflex+
I just got rid of my AIC and swapped in the Motiv Reflex+ and the car is MUCH happier. The AIC was very inconsistent for me, but it still works great for others. If anyone is interested I have it up for sale with the flash cable and Justin's base map for $250 shipped.

Would the reflex lite work okay?

Probably best to ask Jacob from Motiv if you'll only be using it for port, but Motiv reflex+ is the king no doubt. It can also control a single turbo setup.

No. You need aftermarket stock size "1.75" inlets and aftermarket "larger than OEM" aluminum outlets due to the ported compressor housings.

I would just email Rob. He responds very quickly and will tell you everything you need to know and more.
