When you press the gas and the turbo starts to spool it takes
a while, maybe 10 full seconds, depending on spool,
for the boost to come down
so if you boost in traffic remember to always calculate how much you're boosting vs how long you have to stop.
Imagine rolling off in 1st from a light after full boosting 5psi!! Turbo is still full boosting at idle!
It can be tricky, but you need to learn how to drive boosted cars.
That's why there are turbo timers or else if you do a hella sick full boost run it'll keep
boosting with the engine off and that hurts the turbo and hurt engine seals. GL!The first car I ever rode in was an e30

Learn to drive first. There are a shit ton of people who "know how to drive" that don't know jack. If you can't control your car at its limits then adding power = ditch. I've been riding and racing motorcycles for 20 years so by comparison Hp/Weight my boosted e30 is boring. I'd say a years worth of auto x events should give you a pretty good start.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
