Get rid of the two stickers in the bay.
They make it look a bit cheap and nasty.

Yep,
The NOS and the RB30DET Stickers.
I have always understood most rear window stickers, to help support mates business etc, but have always thought Bay Stickers really cheapen a car, especially after so much coin has been thrown at MR VLT's bay to make it look as bling as possible, it just kinda ruins it imo.

I was told the 10.2 was done on 25psi so still alot of room to up the boost in future.
Congrats Alex first time out and only 4 passes in total with throuble through out.
Will only get faster from here.

no doubt about it man,, the car sounded strong when it was finally making boost off the line,, only thing stopping it was traction issues..has a 9.5 even lower in it
