More air please.....after talking to AVO in Australia on Turbo unit for the
Swift GT, they reminded me of bigger exhaust, TB, etc.. and a lower
compression on the pistons.

No you don't want back preasure with a turbo And you
want it as free flowing as possiable . The turbo self
adjust (in a way ) and gives you power when you need
it (unlike a supercharger that only builds up power on
the top end ) . for exe my old turbo coupe , If you
set the cruise control and went up a hill even though
it was in the low end of the power band (about 1700 in
over drive about 45-50mph) when you would go up a
incline the turbo preasure would start building up .
The short verson the turbo will make up for the low
end torque and then some .
