yea and no.
Now you have slightly more hp to get up to speed, so if you keep the revs low you'll gain hp. Too high tho, and the added amount of air you're sucking in will cause the ECU to addmore fuel in, therefore less miles per galloon A turbo, if you keep the RPMS too low you'll muck abot in vacuum; and will waste lots of hp. Keep the rpms right after you spool, and u should be nearly perfect- the rpms too high will dump fuel in. |
