Cool

Yup, there is a switch like this fitted as standard on all scoobies. You should find it under your right foot whilst cruising on the motorway. It allows variable turbo boost based on how much you press it and how much load the engine is under. If you press it lightly you can drive around without bringing the car onto boost. Of course, having a boost gauge fitted will also help, as you can see whats going on in the manifold, and drive accordingly to keep it in vaccuum.
