To start the quest, you must complete the New Tricks mission and speak to the bartender at Daruda Diner in Jaunta’s Hope. Since the bartender doesn’t know Selo’s whereabouts, they will advise you to go to Kadua and speak with Selo’s friend.

Kadua's location will be marked on the map, so you can simply follow the marker. Upon reaching the area, find Selo’s friend and talk to him. He will inform you that Selo can be found in her shop, located on a cliff at Jaunta’s Hope.

Meet Selo at her shop and request her to upgrade your Speeder. Selo will then give you a Magnetic Disruptor and ask you to find an Atmospheric Accelerator.

The first part of the mission involves figuring out the location of the Atmospheric Accelerator. Thankfully, the area is marked on the map and can be found in the northwestern part of Jaunta’s Hope. Simply make your way to the location, interact with the console to stop the wind harvester, and enter the tunnel.

Make your way in until you find an energy barrier. Send Nix through the vent to turn off the barrier and enter the facility. From here, you just need to follow the path through some platforming obstacles to reach an office. You can pick up the Atmospheric Accelerator from the terminal inside the office.

Exit the area by heading out of the office and using your Grapple Hook on the highlighted grapple points. Return to Selo’s shop and give her the Atmospheric Accelerator to complete the quest. Completing the quest will automatically unlock the Speed Boost ability from The Mechanic.
