Well. Tempted to say strip it, as you'll gain a bit, but then you'll have people argue the toss "ohh well it was stripped out" etc etc

Bring tools just incase maybe?

I'd go for full weight for the Pod. As already mentioned take some tools just in case.

From your specs you're using a manual boost controller. Is that a bleed valve type thing or a fancy electronic boost controller?

Agree with these boys John ^^^ Run it in road trim first, then at least nobody can argue the toss if you run a great time.. You can always run it stripped after and get a comparison too..

Tempted to pop down for a nosey on Sunday myself tbh.. Problem is I'll be itching to run mine and I won't be able too...  :sad1: :signLOL:

Ball and spring valve. The electronic controller in the future. :happy2:

If people don't like the fact your car is faster than their's, you'll always be accused of 'cheating' somehow - be it stripping, running 104ron, running semis, attaching a large sail...

I'd run it in road trim for sh*ts and giggles, that way if you do spank XY&Z's cars, it makes it all the funnier.
Sideways yo!
