Is your car EFI mark? I would've thought a factory efi system would sense
the high load and start dumping in heaps of fuel. Wonder why this doesn't
happen?
Though you can make any car (turbo or not) ping in conditions like you
mentioned but say.. on a 45degree day.

Re: Re: repairing my turbo .......:
hi, just about any car can be made to ping.dentonate if not driven
correctly.
e.g say your in first gear, then go straight to 4 th or 5 th then
flatten it , then you will hear it ping,
or towing a trailer etc.. up a hill and got wrong gear....
the guy that took my car for spin, i heard later that he did go from 2 nd
to 5th, it would MOST probally be all right IF he accelerated very
slowly , but he flattened it causing it to ping heaps and...........
u just gotta know how to drive properly.....
anyone else?

Hey Mark, just a question for someone (me) who hasn't had any experience
with turbo cars and will soon have one, if your engine was tuned properly
why did it detonate itself to pieces when the other wanker took it for a
thrash? I just can't wrap my head around that one, but thought I'd ask
so I don't do it to my pride and joy when I get it on the road in the
near future.
Cheers Mate
