turbo spool up
hi all
just fitted a afterburner centre decat to my exsiting afterburner vortex back box.
It seems now that the turbo spools up around 500 rpm later is this normal?
cheers

It should spool up quicker, though what diameter is your exhaust? too big means not enough back pressure so could be a problem.

2.5??? In that case must be a leak!
check the gaskets, turbo, downpipe, etc.
