Porsche or Sports car aside, if talking about Turbo and NA, I think Bro. Renesis probably confused from old school turbo like mine and new Generation of turbo. Old school are mainly power turbo with turbo lag and power coming in after 3k RPM. Nowadays turbo can be tuned for torque like Proton Exora. They have turbo but are not powerful but they add torque for better drive. Then others like twin scroll, Variable and so on so is a whole new thing, even for oldie like me.....hhahhahahhah:biggrin:
Yeah, I've heard about modern turbo engines have much less lag compared to the old turbo engines during 80s and 90s. I think the power delivery is also more linear and consistent unlike older turbo where you get that sudden pull after mid RPM. That is due to the usage of smaller turbo for faster spooling time that minimizes turbo lag isn't it?

Hi guys,

I never modifiy/upgrade my car, so i am really noob in terms of car upgrade. Pls recommend any modification/upgrade i should add? My aim is comfort & stable cruising speed/vibration on highway. Speed/pickup is not...
