Topic's a little old. There will be no sticker. The sound of the turbo should speak for itself (and it sure will through the new 3" exhaust...).

When / if I ever steal a Mercedes Kompressor supercharger and intercooler for my FC I will get the "Kompressor" emblem if I can. Slight touches like that make the car interesting and look complete, in my opinion.

As far as the turbo base that Aaron has, I wouldn't write Turbo on it anywhere. It looks great like it is. Turbo is a catch word for speed, which is the element of ricers' cosmetic work - to look fast. There are turbo RX7's from the factory making it uninteresting. An RX7 Kompressor would get some looks and that would be cool IMHO.

Good point. Seeing as how the car has an unusual airdam, bright yellow paint job, is a sports car and is lowered, it is already a ricer magnet. I just want boost without lag, if you know what I mean.

Sleeper, all the way. The only badges that should be on an rx is the rotor emblem on 10AEs, they rule.

I know this thread is old... and I gave up reading after the second page.. But.... I think you should just put a turbo badge in the 3rd break light area... no need to explain how.

The car will remain badgeless. Now, I might try to find a subtle yet visible "Brigeport" badge.
