Default Re: I would not agree

Power loss on turbo engines is less, but not absent. I sure miss my 5000 TQ20V in the mountains, but never got to drive my A8 out there yet. Is it very obvious in the D2A8?

Default Central City Parkway

I didnt get a chance to take the A8 over Loveland pass but have taken it up over the new Central City Parkway a few times ... the best word that I can come up with is DOG!
I know that the turbo cars will still loose some power once it reaches its max rpm and/or take longer to spoolup.
Still way less than a NA engine.
