I want to know how reliable is this page, cause i wanna get some products from there, but i´m not so sure about them, please tell me if i can trust them.
Thanks a lot.
Although I have nothing to really complain about, many people have recently come forward revealing RSM's unprofessionalism and ignorant business practices. You have to decide, weighing the pros and the cons, because people may tell you two different sides. Lately, they have not shown to be a straightforward and honest corporation with more than a few people. Furthermore, they increased their prices recently and they've become only a web-based company, meaning they will no longer work on customer's cars. I don't know about some people, but this doesn't sound like it bodes well for the company. Do a couple searches and check out the link MikeGT gave you and then decide.
Blown.
I bought a 62mm throttle body from them a few years ago... I was required to pay an extra $299 for the ported intake manifold, only available as a combo.
I measured the throttle body when it got here.. it was only 60.83mm, and still is to this day.. I'm using it on the GM supercharger, so the $299 intake manifold I was required to buy was really a waste.
I will not buy from them again.
They're a bunch of thieving bastards. Avoid them like the plague!

Im a Xbox 360 fanboy...and damn proud of it!!
Don't know from personal experience, but like stated. A bunch of sh*t has been going on with them. They are VERY VERY expensive. Just a Stage I supercharger is 4 grand. That is absolutely ridiculous. A header that looks exactly like Pacesetter's for $300. And intake and throttle body for $650!!! A lower engine mount for 80 bones!!
In other words

There rippers alright...they made a mistake with my order a year back and then some. They shipped it from Canada to the US, A 62MM TB and intake...the set at the time. Costly one I might add...I was just starting my modding and knew no better!
I ended up owing another $25.00 or so duty taxes, from the North American Free Trade Agreement(NAFTA)! The 2 people I dealt with there at RSM would not dicuss any rebate or credit, it was their fault and they admitted it...a major snufu on their part.
I went as high as the #2 guy up their, was nice and explained my storey, No dice, no change, etc. He was completly useless!
Will never order from them again.......RIPPERS!!!!!!!!!

Customs Duty is something that was there way before NAFTA and will be there until you Americans come to your senses and join Canada... or until we take over.. (take your pick).
Seriously, duties aren't unsual, RSM wouldn't have levvied that... that's your govt's fault.
If RSM tacked it on there and you paid THEM for it, well, that's a different story.
