R56 What exactly does the Turbo do?
#26
Another newbie question?
I have noticed that the car accelerates much faster when in Sport mode, is this because the car is using the higher rmp's? I have an automatic so if it were manual it may be different.
When in non-sport mode I am assuming the turbo is still kicking in but the car is not revving as high and therefore the speed is lessened?

Yes I am stepping out of line here because I am not a mod but, there is entirely too many threads started here about topics that have been discussed before and are actively being discussed. I am in the boat of people who would like to see a forward movement of what the MINI can do as far as performance and looks. It just seems when the same things being talked about over and over and over again we are just circling the drain. I understand you might not know what a turbo does and we can help you under stand it but, if you had gone to another section there is a great information section that was posted about what a turbo does and how the size effects how much pwer you can get.

If you have other questions please use the search bar, look at a search engine, talk to other MINI owners at a local club meet, or if you want to mod your car and don't know what to get call one of the vendor's and talk to them since the MINI is all they work on everyday.
We are here to help, so do get me wrong in my rant just please understand what I am talking about.
