    Timing is retarded, air and fuel is let into cylinders, exhaust valves open, unburnt a/f mixture escapes through exhaust while spark ignites.

    All of this keeps the turbo spinning minimizing lag. This is hard on the turbo, but turbo technology has come a long way. It is also hard on exhaust manifolds and the exhaust piping.

    Really it is minimal wear and tear considering the advantages of having boost on demand. I've only owned a couple turbo cars and have driven a few more; a few had large turbos and lag was terrible.

    if they allowed it with a chl i would be all over it
    that makes sense. I have always preferred a supercharger over a turbo due to the response. I hate turbo lag

    I think they vote tomorrow. If it gets through it will go to the House and has to pass there.

    I think in 06 they did something similar, but it didn't go pass the Senate. This time it may be different.

    Stock for now, don't have AAL for the rear. Do we even need to compress the coils for the install? I'm a total noob to anything suspension related
