Of course DDIS comes with a Turbo. But I guess, it is not really called a turbo when you compare with the custom turbos. The stock turbo kicks in @ 2200 rpm whereas, the custom ones comes into the presence a bit earlier (not really sure about this).

I have heard Swift D Turbos are so puny and owners always have a feel that 2200rpm is too long a wait ! Even I felt so when I drove the car and it was not a good feeling during city drives !

Hi,
I've been having this question for quite some time now. Are turbo chargers really suited only for diesel engines ? or do they do well with their petrol cousins as well ? What is the technical reason for the same ?

I have not really seen a turbo charged petrol. Experts: please give in your views

Linea T-Jet, Laura TSi & Laura RS are all Turbocharged petrol engined cars.

Hi,

Can the ANHC be turbo charged??? If yes, any ideas where is the best place to get it done??

In the Opening Post, under the "Things that will harm your turbo" it is given that Prolonged Engine Idling will harm your turbo.
Now how much of time can be treated as "Prolonged"?

Yes. Red Rooster seems to be the best bet as of now and they should have a branch in your city.
