More power!

Yep, I reckon removing the mesh blocking the flow of exhaust gases will free up a few HP, and the polished finish should add at least 50 HP lol.
I might have to invest in some TRD badges and decals to get some serious power improvements.....

I finally cracked a 1:28 at Mallala. The lap i managed it on was the one lap where i had a clean run with no traffic.
On an earlier session that i had a clear run, until the last 2 laps where there were yellows out for a stranded car, i was consistently running 1:29's. In fact, in every session i managed to beat my previous best times 
The Eibach Pro-Kit springs definitely made a difference to the handling on the limit.
Having a harness fitted helped me stay in the seat, making the whole experience a lot better.
Getting below a 1:28 will take a lot more practice.....

Great job on finding that mesh stuffed in there - you never would of known otherwise!
Definitely would of helped with proper flowing exhaust gasses and whatnot

After a clean up, that exhaust looks absolutely stunning! Makes me want to detail my own haha - if only it were something flashy to actually show off ;)

All my sessions were pretty consistent despite it being a very windy day (40km/h headwinds down the back straight ) and a heap of other cars on the track...

Thats how i learn, if haven't gone off on every corner at least once, then i'm not trying hard enough lol.
