Turbo timer: allows the engine to run after switching the ignition off to let the turbo spin lightly and cool down

Boost controler: controls boost allows you to set what pressure you want the turbo to produce

intercooler: cools the air comming out of the turbo before it is forced into the engine. cooler air is more dense there for more powerful.

thx bro wat about with turbos wat the diff between like stage 1 or stage 2 etc

[bbenny]

well stage on or stage two really depends on the workshop... for example a stage 1 turbo might be rated to flow 400hp and stage two 600hp

basically stage one is less hardcore and upgrade than stage two. the terms themselves dont really mean crap.
