Title: Turbo Boost Kick In
Post by: eye30 on June 12, 2008, 19:13:35

I find that my Turbo kicks in at 1500 RPM no matter what gear I'm in.

What RPM are others finding Turbo kicks in?

High torque seems available from around that rpm.. dunno what part the turbocharger plays in it tho.

I don't seen to get much go until around 2000 (maybe because I feather the accelerator most of the time)

Hey Shambles if you ever get down Tassie way can you "fix up" Bob Brown as well!

P.S. I hope nothing really happens to the other two Bobs you mentioned in next few days (Cops would have a written confession in their lap - Google Bot might even pick up those words and post them in a search!)
