I would say that they are Pro's. They have managed to stay a Vendor for 4 years selling nothing but Ebay parts with the Megan badge ripped off. All those custom RNR cores; Ebay. All those RNR exhausts; Ebay. They send us incredibly shoddy welded messes of a manifold, I am not even going to comment on their CUSTOM 02 housings that they had on their turbo kits which were looked like to modified soda cans. They are savages and just constantly rip people off.

All this and they are STILL raking in money, they are Pros man.

^ They are pros? I wouldn't give them the credit, it's the people who continued to buy terrible quality parts from them who gave them the ability to keep scamming.

How come a mod on here doesnt message other sites to forwarn them of the RNR's business? I know it is another site, but someone like him should be hunted down!

RnR was an aweful company, parts sucked as much as their customer service.

Its not the sites responsibility to warn other sites.. Just to warn their own users if there is a problem.

Sometimes its just courtesy to notify other sites, whether or not the other site chooses to do anything about the warning is up to them.

It seems like the "RNR has been sold" message is an attempt to indemnify himself from damages and complaints after that date. Technically he can on paper sell the company to someone/something else and walk away from the liability.

If the complaints and problems are as bad as people say, then someone should contact his locations district attorney and ask what to do about filing a complaint and perhaps getting some criminal charges filed against him (and/or the principals of this company)

If I got hosed by someone, I would make it my lifes mission to get satisfaction (legally/financially/etc..)

If you have been wronged, you need to contact as many people who have also been ripped off, and contact the right people and get the ball rolling.

WOW I never thought of that! That is what he is probably doing.

The point is that it isn't RNR made. It is Ebay SSAC. It'll rust very soon.

Wrongo. I actually think they made this one. It's a slip-fit with an HKS/Ti muffler. I've had it for 2 years, no rust. Except for the exhaust hangers. THos obviously aren't stainless steel.

Anyway, this doesn't change the fact that RNR is/was/will continue to be shady

I disagree, my RNR POS turbo kit came with a Megan exhaust with the megan badging ripped off of it. Needless to say I got rid of that kit ASAP. Good thing I did, ryan was sending those POS kits out with .48 housings and faulty oil lines, the turbo blew up quickly afterwards.

The .48 exhaust housing you're refering to was on the GT30r turbos?

If it is, Precision only sells that housing with their GT30r turbo, it's a Precision engineered/casted housing which they say flows the same as the standard garrett .63 ar exhaust housing, but with better spool "go figure " how it can flow the same as a .63 but be a .48 i dunno...but Precision is a reputable turbo company.

Also, AMS used this exact GT30r turbo for their kits.

As for RnR, they're shady and we all know it even if we bought their stuff in the past

I got ripped off of $500 from them. The claim is through paypal, and you know I will never get any money from them.

Is there an ongoing lawsuit with them at the moment? I would love to add my loss to the pile of wrongdoings.

If they ganked me I would get a plane ticket to Cali and "make things right". I highly doubt it would take much to locate Ryan.
