Other than basic servicing/installing simple mods like intercoolers I don't do any work myself these days as I don't have the time.

Other offers speak of things like "billet", "plug & play", "OEM style", "easy to fit""Rollex's pot with a simple bracket & metal bucket with some holes" doesn't have the same snazzy catch to draw people in I don't think. :-p 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact most performance cars (even 1990s skylines) can run 10s without leaning out using the stock tank is evidence for this.
