Add veritek to the list as I'm pretty sure that he has all forms of FI covered for the 2GS.

LALEX has the kit but not installed since some critical parts were lost during UPS shipment.

He's missing the PS pump pulley and some of the belt tensioning bracket hardware. These are critical parts to the set up and all custom made. The pulley in particular would be quite expensive to have just a one off made. You would have to make say 10 of them to get the price down. I know this because I scoped out what it would cost to duplicate all the custom parts.

Funny you should ask. I was with Rhys Millen at his shop when the SC kits were being developed. I used to know the exact number of their firts production run, but it was a long time ago.

I'll take a swag and say there were about 25 ever made.

You could search the classifieds and see who was selling, but it prob won't say who the new owner is.

Some others that had the kit, but sold them were morris and roenick7.

You can probably track some of them down as they've been sold on / off the cars.

As kits

I think Dr G in ATL may still have his. Mumbles also had one down there and think he took the RMM SC off but not sure what he did with it. As Glen mentioned Morris sold his (link above) and I think Jamie (JMCBR00) sold his too when he went single turbo on his 2GS.

I bought my SC from Pearlpower, so you can write off his classified listing.

I just remember another guy who had one, CandyGS. Most of these guys have been off the forums a long time, so it would be hard to track down where the kit is today.

Still this thread brings up some interesting bits of trivia of "Where are They Now"

I think there isn't enough demand for RMM or any other company to start making the kits again. There was talk of getting more kits made if they had at least 10 committed buyers a couple of years back, but not enough people stepped up. I don't know why since there isn't a lot of options for the GS4 as far as forced induction, and the RMM kit was the most reliable with the fewest issues.
