I remember a long time ago reading about it, and I dont know if there's more than 1 type of system, but I read that theres a spark plug between the header and turbo an fuel gets injected and burnt durings shifts so that keeps the turbo spinning..and is also why you see flames coming out of the exhaust.
It kills a turbo, fast...in like hours fast. And would also make your cats puke their guts out! -------------------- -Rémy 02 SiR, 08 250R |

It kills a turbo, fast...in like hours fast. And would also make your cats puke their guts out! As a matter of fact, there is not a plug, but a Fuel injector. When you lift your foot of from the gaspedal, It injects fuel to the exhaust, which flames due the heat and the pressure that the flaming creates, keeps the turbo spinning. So when you hit the gas pedal again, the turbo is already spinning hard enough to get boostt, and no lag. -------------------- |
