TURBO SPOOL!

Kinja'd!!!

Seriously, the faint whistle the turbo makes (exaggerated when the window is down) is amazing. I even hear air being sucked into the engine, off the throttle. This is why it's the most jalop of all the cars at my disposal. There aren't any mods on it, and probably there never will be, at least in the near future. All I need is to perfect my manual skills.

I'm so addicted to turbo spool now. When I first drove my saab it sold me on it in a second. Get ready to invest in a bigger turbo and a Ewg to make it even louder, also a huge exhaust helps too.

If you try it on a MB diesel, then its served up Jekyll and Hyde style with mucho turbo lag.

The 1600cc Mini engine isn't bad either for this. The ECU sport program also mimics an overrun with slight backfiring. Totally fake, but silly fun.

Intake/Turbo noise is addicting. I don't get much of a spool, but I get lots of intake sound and blow off
