Re: help me tabrocky/somebody boost question

I was going to do it but I don't drive it often as I walk to work. I'm guessing that was $60 per nozzle. I have seen a set of 4 brand new for $129 on ebay. ($12 postage erk) Is this a fair price??

help me tabrocky/somebody boost question

Tabrocky gave me great info about a mod that allows you to have full boost on a TD in 1st gear. I have been scoring over my measages and posts but can't find the info that I need.

This all said and done I transplanted the TD into my tray and what a difference, especially in the higher gears ...
