You should open the bonnet (engine hood for those accross the pond) and see. If it looks like a plumbers nightmare in front of the engine they the chances are it has a turbo. > When > does this come into play while driving?

I believe it comes at less RPM than the HOT version (2? - 2.5k ?) and it has less of an impact thus you don't feel the kick. Enjoy the car. Charles -- Please remove _removeme_ to reply.
