Restrictor plate is kinda the same concept. More air or less air.

First time I drove it to get used to what boost feels like. Closed road not WOT and only video so far for safety reasons. Been a long time since I uploaded a video anywhere so hope it works.

Wasn`t in as bad a shape as I thought it would be. Iron x, extra fine clay sponge, Reset wash, and Ech2o/Reload mixed as drying aid. Couple of swirls on the deck lid but otherwise looks like it did 8 months ago. Still gonna polish off WG and go with HPC just no rush now. Too fun to drive.
I put up some lights while I was waiting for the car to get finished. Kind of ghetto looking but it is base housing so I can`t do anything permanent.
After I got it cleaned up, I went out driving and messed with the paddle shifters in manual mode. Holy crap 1st through 3rd.....either upshift or downshift and sounds like a tornado under the hood. 1st and 2nd gear with stock tires is useless with anything more than half throttle.
(Before I cleaned the inside)
Put some carbon fiber Jake decals on the back of the seats.

Well that certainly looks fun! Hope you enjoy the HPC...I`m pretty impressed with it so far...application, looks and self-cleaning seem to be top shelf.
Was gonna polish the Uber off the Vette and recoat with HPC but the Uber is still doing well 9n it so I think I`m gonna (*gasp*) just leave that one alone this year.

Well, thanks to you I am like a dog chasing his tail with coatings. I WAS gonna go with kamikaze on it then you keep posting in your darn coating thread....
Pretty fond of the ech2o reload mix using Merlin`s ratio.
Going to a C&C this morning and just wiped down with the above and then topped with straight Reload . Don`t tell Ron.....I like it.

Can I interest you in some Kamikaze Infinity Wax? Finally broke down and ordered some yesterday with their $5 shipping promo.

Have you tried it yet? If it attracts stuff like Fuzion, I will pass. Generous offer thanks.
