have Turbo doesn't mean it goes like rocket. The Preve turbo is soft turbo and coupled with the CVT, when full throttle, the engine will be running at constant 5,750rpm. At that rpm, the turbo is only spinning, but it isn't boosting.

A soft turbo application is used mainly to improve low to mid torque in order to aid better city driving. High performance turbo are usually larger and only kicks in at high rpm.

maintain rev at 2,000-4,000rpm and you can harness all the full power of it. smile.gif

response? unsure.gif

On thing is, the Preve is a huge chunk of metal to be moved compared to the persona and CVT isn't that well associated with performance either.

that is due to the thin layer of soundproofing on the bonet layer. A sheet of insulflex will solve the issue. It is good to concern about that since it will have negative effect on the hood paint in long term.
