JHM RS-6 Hybrid turbos

[kaplow89]

Who has experience with these? and who put thousands of miles of them? what did you think of them? I want to get a pair but I want to hear from real purchasers first. PLEASE do not say "Chinese this, crap that. get these instead" i just want opinions from people who has bought and ran them. I can hardly find anything that isn't years old.

[CELison]

They fell off. Kinda like the Meek Mill of turbos.

I just finished installing mine, and have only started the car a few times for leak checks. So longevity is yet to be seen for me. For what it's worth they look nice and fit ok. I didn't go with JHM's fueling because I prefer not having a MBC. I'll know more soon.

Their site states it is now the RS6-RS and that they've changed it from when it was the RS6-R. There probably are not many people on this forum with experience using the product version JHM is currently selling.

It's a 2280X billet wheel on the RS vs the cast OE-style 2280 wheel on the -R... Pretty much a clone of the TTE600 (albeit with a bored out RS4 compressor housing, not a modified RS6 compressor housing), aside from the TTE's being built off of OE Borg Warner turbos and the JHM's being "other".

So you take time out of your day to just give information and be completely rude? Nice man. Very welcoming. Maybe I should have been more specific, and you wouldn't be such a asshole. I wanted more information on the new updated JHM RS-6 RS turbos.

[kaplow89]

Good to know they fit good. My ko3s are going soon. Just playing the field on what to get.

[kaplow89]

Ah yes see, thanks man. I should have been more specific. This turbo is what I was looking for. It's been little over 2 years so I figured maybe a person or 2 would have experience with them.

[Jake@JHM]

Actually, we have a hard time keeping them in stock .

We had been shipping the "RS" version for over a year before we updated the product page. The black coated housings are the RS models.

Depending upon how you manage inventory that may not be saying much.

If the product is physically like the much more expensive TTE600 I'd be interested to see some user results; anybody given you feedback (data) you can post?

Billet wheels on the new ones? Is it true jake? Does it spool faster?

My car should be finished dyno tuning early july, I'll get some logs, as long as all goes well.

From our product page:

UPDATE: As of early 2014, the RS6-RS Turbos have been updated with new features geared towards increased performance! These features include a billet compressor wheel with a 1mm larger inducer, a compressor wheel nut that is 5 grams lighter, and turbine shaft that has been lightened by 5 grams. Together these updates create a better flowing and quicker spooling RS6-RS!

Got any proof to support your product page? "Together these updates create a better flowing and quicker spooling RS6-RS!"

[Scotty@Advanced]

SRM turbos are highly regarded as the better of the Asian manufactured turbos.

...Says the guy in competition with JHM......Got any proof of your allegation?

[naudlee]

SRM stuff is indeed the most popular these days & The RS6-X/R/RS/XYZ are all of Asian origin, some of the vendors don't lie about where they come from and over-hype them.

Regarding hype, any proof to back up the over 500 whp on 91 octane claim for the SRM RS6/K24?

[axnjaksn]

FIGHT!!!!! hahaha

[axnjaksn]

some doods on here have gotten 91 plus meth making 500+ to the wheels, I think s4gasm aka lotr had a video of his dyno run.... idk how much my current setup makes but if/when I get a chance to dyno ill be sure to post. Truthfully all im happy with is more boost and more power that mine deliver. does it really matter what the dyno numbers show?? to make good comparison one would have to dyno exact same dyno....at the exact same place with the exact same weather and wheels and tires and blah blah blah....to justify all the BS dynos cause.... if its fast its fast...some people drive the same car faster than others too..... am I pushing any buttons????
who cares what the dyno says...

I believe what you are referring to failed to hold up under scrutiny.

who cares what the dyno says...

There are ways to cross-check and determine how much confidence should be given for dyno results to reflect wheel HP. To be clear I wasn't asking about dyno numbers, I was referring to a power to the wheels claim.

[axnjaksn]

what is the big deal with turbos and 500+ wheel horsepower anyways??

[HighPsi(NorCal)]

Fuck dyno numbers, lets see some et's and trap speeds.

well if I can find sean, ill maybe have some this season.

[kingkhalilz]

My car on k24 some say was molested or hacked... I beg to differ, especially after tearing it apart (looked amazing) But on 91 it was not a fun car to drive. That is just my car tho. sean is a good guy very helpful. On e85 im sure its a different story. Not bashing anything or anyone, just saying my opinion on 91 oct even 93 oct i would choose something else.

Side note tho, funny i visited jason at amd before i did this build for some knowledge. He said they had been doing hybrids since 04 and they chose tial for a reason....I think amd knows what the hell they are doing. Just my opinion, great guys too. Jhm guys seem nice too. How they treat you is worth just as much as the products, i dont think any vender around here does a really bad job.

I'm skeptical of the E85 claim (600+ whp) for them as well as the 91 octane claim. ProjectB5 states 650+hp on E85/race fuel and that these are "well documented". I'd be interested in looking over documentation supporting these claims.

JHM has been slipping in my recent personal experiences, I have been less and less impressed with their customer service and business practices.

For example, when they converted my refund to store credit... fine, your rules are your rules, but then went I went to use the store credit, they tried to say my store credit had essentially expired after 3 months... sorry, that's just theft. If I gave you money, you cannot just say "nope, its not here anymore, sorry" especially after forcing me to transfer it into JHM Funny Money (keeping in mind the refund was on an unused tune, so the product refunded was 1s and 0s, not a damaged physical product that could not be resold.)

I have always been a strong supporter of JHM (there are even some threads on here where I have praised old service I have received), and I still believe they have some talented and helpful people on their team, however I was so soured by my last experience I will have a hard time justifying going back to them unless I see signs of things changing. I shouldn't have to fight to use the money I paid you.

sad to hear that. I've had good experiences with jhm. but the above story is just really bad customers service or policy . hopefully jhm chimes in .customer service is s hugh factor.

[bulfrog3232]

10,000 miles on mine. I have the rs6-rs turbos with the tuning kit some er smics and a few other odds and ends. Customer service was awful, I had a misfire issues and called them to ask if it was common, and was told that I obviously had no idea what I was doing... but once I threw some ngk bkr7eix spark plugs in, I ran great!

To be real, who calls the tuner regarding misfires?

Please PM me. Store credit does NOT expire. I will get this sorted for you.

Please PM me as well. I would also recommend a colder spark plug.

Anyone dialing in a fresh build, new setups etc? Thats nothing out of the ordinary

Are there any besides the JHM shop car with Jay driving?

[getslideways]

I do appreciate your offer, but it has been sorted. However, it took over a half hour of "discussion" on the phone to finally get my store credit "un-expired". I was quite upset to have to fight so hard to be able to use the money I had provided. I hope this was just a one time thing, and the individual with whom I spoke was just ill-informed, but it was a very aggravating experience to hear your money had turned into a "donation" without your knowledge.

Jake, to be 100% fair, I have spoken with you on the phone before (separate time and subject) and received very positive, enthusiastic, and informative interactions. So when I mentioned "I still believe they have some talented and helpful people on their team" you were one of those people I was referring to with that statement. Unfortunately it seems there are some others on staff who are either not on the same page or have not shown themselves to be up to par in comparison.

I'm actually with Flyboy on this one, there are "so many RS-6 RS cars, SRM cars, ProjectB5 cars - WHERE ARE THE NUMBERS? Dyno, Trap, ET?

I only know of 1 SRM K04 car that runs good, everyone is saying they can't keep their turbos in stock, yet where are the results?!

[S4James]

I agree its a bit tough to pull the trigger on thousands of dollars of product when there are little to no published results. Thankfully I know a guy who has assured me im taking a step in the right direction. But I did some searching, and not much out there, and what results I did find were lackluster.
