I have a general question for other Forum readers - my stock Koup Turbo (auto) revs quite highly (and quickly) in first and second gear, but doesn't seem to accelerate with any real kick in those gears. By comparison, the acceleration kick in third and fourth is noticeably stronger ie; you can feel the turbo kick when accelerating in third and fourth. If I punt it hard from a standing start not a lot happens until I hit third gear, and then she takes off
. It's almost as if the turbo isn't activating in first and second. Articles I've read say the turbo starts spooling from just below 2000 revs, but I'm just not noticing it.
Is this normal? Does everyone else's car do the same thing?
BTW, I have about 3,500kms on the clock and the dealer said I would notice a difference in performance at around 3,000kms - I don't think I've noticed any change, or maybe it's still too early, or maybe the dealer was dreaming.......?
Cheers,
Johno.
