As for the 6RS and RSII...they are cool, but a bit too raw for me, i like my creature comforts too much
I dissagree i think the 7's do look good, when subtly modified




Think this is an 8 but the side profiles the same..

Turbo has titanium shaft IIRC, but also has a smaller compressor wheel one side (exh?)

IMO the RSX has the best blower, titanium shafted and larger compressor wheel like GSR's so it doesn't run out of puff.

Red Tommi's do look good but to be fair there's little reason to pay the premium for the mak (unless you want red) as visually (externally) it's only the front bumper and wheels that are different. I'd sooner buy a cheaper white GSR and get the bumper if I wanted the look.

I don't like the idea if a smaller comp on the turbo either, it's designed for low end response but it's gotta sacrifice top end pull surely?
