Please forgive me in advance,I am a TURBO noob!
I have just bought 2000 T4R reg mark X516 EKV which the seller said is already known here, I have the Forum sticker in teh rear window.
I am lovin' it to bits but after a little experience am think I would like the Turbo to kick earlier and less fiercely, it feels almost like an on off switch right now.
Is this possible? Is this akin to asking how to build an aircraft carrier?
Any leads to T4 tuning links, vids, etc, would be super dooper welcome.Thanks!

Have you got a boost gauge fitted you can adjust the boost on the turbo then . Should work is there much play on the spindle/blades it might have some wear that's preventing it from kicking in as it should.

Are you suffering with Alzheimer's ?? You started a different thread on the same subject:

I think the answer to your first question is there...

PS - the "R" badge is a fake. It was attached as a joke at TRAX2014

Lol, cheers fella, I did have some suspicion as I can't find a T4R anywhere, aside from mine.
Nice garage you got there!

Probably mate, or could just be noob fever. Thanks for the link!
