Turbo question..new turbo owner and not real smart....
I just bought a 2000 A4 1.8T. I've never driven a turbo engine before. At what point, RMP, does the turbo kick in? Is it something that you can feel, like a sudden power increase?
Thanks, like I said...new and dumb!

1700-1800 rpms. in a tip car you will feel the surge of power
since your car barely moves before the turbo spools up. in a stick you will still feel the turbo, moreso if you get a chip.<ul><li><a href="http://www.howstuffworks.com/turbo.htm">http://www.howstuffworks.com/turbo.htm</a</li></ul>

What RPM should the turbo kick in? It feels kinda jerky to me, but then I've never owned a turbo bef
