Give it a week or two, if there is anything wrong it will show up within that time frame.  And if it does, well who cares you have warranty.


Exactly, Why i`m not too worried about buying it regardless because of both of the warranties

Hopefully it doesn't have horrific turbo lag like some these newer cars do. Other than that good to go, make sure to check your fluids often and do your timing belts and it should last a long time.

Well I am going to assume you know what lag is considering you are a gaming forum. A turbo basically forces air into your engine as three things are needed for an engine to run well: Spark, Fuel (Gas), Compression. The turbo forces air right down the engines throat and creates more power by doing so, anything with a turbo has lag its just to what degree. I know for a fact Dodge Dart's were facing huge problems with their turbos. If you didn't notice anything while driving you should be fine


Vets dont hate me, I don't own a turbo'd vehicle nor do I want one thus I don't know crazy amounts about them so if I got something wrong fix it.

No lag on the 1.4. The turbo is the size of a tangerine.

Good stuff. That's right, the bigger the turbo the more it produces up top but the longer it takes to spool

Yep. Like 13lbs of boost stock. I think it will make 20 just by tuning. Take it from 138hp to about 200. Truthfully It does a great job stock. It makes the little 1.4L drive like a 3L-4L V6.
