How many miles does he have on that RMS unit?

Dunno.....it's not his daily car anymore, so I'm guessing not as many as some people. PM him and ask!

MyBlackBeauty - I sent you a PM.

Midnight Shark - Yes, i was up there for the CART race and got to take a Fast Lap with Mario Andretti in the only BMW PTG pace car, which happened to be a M coupe modified by Dinan.

Scorp965 - I have about 15,000 miles on my RMS stage 2 kit. Never really had any problems. Just got some more tuning done the other day by Osh to get the A/F curve just right. By the way, no one else in So Cal could effectively tune my setup. I will be posting my dyno graph with A/F ratios soon.

Doug - The 320i is in L.A. now, I smell canyon run!

Just curious, how long does it take to actually run laguna seca? Let me rephrase that, what was your best time there?

I am debating the RMS Stage 1 kit vs. the AA supercharger, I know if I posted this in general forums I would be told to get the AA kit, although with RMS right around the corner (or at least a heck of a lot closer than Miami) I figured I could take it there for the installation, which would be a considerable benefit...

Do you have any recommendations on the issue? What made you select RMS over other companies? I have heard several bad stories about RMS (and their lack of customer support), interested to see if you're a satisfied customer?

Get the RMS kit. It will make more power than the AA kit. And you can upgrade to stage 2 anytime you want, for even more power. Plus, RMS is having a sale on E36 kits right now. You may be able to go straight to stage 2. Living close to RMS is definitely a big plus. I find that if i am having a problem i can just show up there and usually the problem is solved. Plus I think the customer service troubles are behind them. Talk to Sean, he is a cool cat and will tell you like it is, no B.S..
I actually just had a little fine tuning done to my car after changing exhaust and will be posting my dyno in the FI section on Bimmerforums.com soon. My car is stock motor with the stage 2 kit and an oil cooler. We had my car on the dyno for 2 hours and it never ran hot and suffered only minor heat soak. Car made 321 to the wheels.
I bought my kit used off a friend, so i did not do any comparison shopping. If you are need more info PM me.

Laguna Seca runs are easy enough to get into. Check out NCracing.org, we have runs up there as track days for the club and the cost is pretty low. I love that track.
