    Oh for sure, I don't think this adds any power but I think it improves the drivability in the sub 3000rpm range. I think depending on the route I go its either going to be a built motor or a turbo for a bit more power.

    The microfiber rags? Or is that a cleaner or solution for cleaning as well?

    Oh yeah, when I started using microfiber for cleaning the interior and the windows out and in, was a game changer. I haven't used their specific brand of towels but if I liked these cheapy microfiber towels I'm sure I'd love the norwex ones:D

    Not real sure, I’d say a month or two before you need to clean windows again.

    I think you'll get more power per dollar with a turbo. With your altitude too, ID definitely go turbo.

    Yup, I want to do a low pressure set up, hopefully if I size it right get it to spool around 3k but at 7700' it would be a game changer, and on the 11,000' passes.
