They have been deleted, but heres what they said.TOPIC 1 - If I put turbo stickers on my car will I an extra pound or 2 of boost? I have heard that if you use bright coloured stickers you gain one pound and if you use metallic or reflective stickers you gain 2 pounds.I was told to be serious or they will ban me.TOPIC 2 - If I mount my turbo backwards, can I go faster in reverse? I am sick of driving forwards and want to drive backwards from now on, but I still want to be able to speed.I was banned after that.Dazza.

A friend of a friend has spent $35,000 on the motor for his series 2 rx7, last time out it did a 10.1 on slicks and is in the shop for more power mods now, but will never be registered again. He is hoping for mid to low 9's.Dazza. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/12907-45k-for-a-first-car/page/3/#findComment-166450 Share on other sites More sharing options...
