3.0 SC turbo kit- is RFNG still making these?

My 3.2 turbo conversion is almost done,minor details and plumb the nitrous and l`m there. l`ve had many enquiries from others about turboing the SC and does anyone know if that Lawyer from Califas is still making the SC turbo kits? lf anyone has his phone number or any info will be greatly appreciated.l followed the posts and they`re huge,covering about three years.He`s got to be done by now.......

I would imagine that he found that no one wanted to pay him for his time.

He may be back. Being a lawyer is a much more lucrative gig than selling a few turbo kits.

thanks for the replies.The thing is that he went to the trouble of getting molds made for some of the parts so he was pretty serious for a while there.l imagine lack of initial orders due to the rising cost of buy-in took it`s toll on the original interested buyers.Phone number anyone?

There's a guy here in southern California who built his own SC Turbo. It runs well and strong (I've been in it). His handle is "sammyg2" if you want to look him up and talk to him.

I did a search and found his phone number on this thread: 3.0 engine case

(I'm purposely not relisting his # here in case he wants to remove edit/delete his post and remove his phone # at some point.)

You can also email him: Go to one of his posts, hit the "Profile" button and then click on the "Click here to email rfng" link and send him an email.

He PMed me with a reply today.... They are still for sale but he just says that he hasnt really tried to post about them to sell them because hes been busy. He also believes he took too long to finish it and the interest is disapearing.

So in effect since he really isnt doing much with it I asked if he would be willing to sell us a parts list and installation instructions instead of a kit
