Yes this is correct , you can buy a boost controller and up it willy nilly and then suffer the pain of screwed tips and blown engine , or do it the proper way and have all the fun you like.

well second turbo works when the engine is cold , but once its warmed up or been used and parked up and started again,

ifrom mine to Exeter is 70 miles of a dead straight dual carrageway, and it was 9am and frezzing cold so the turbos were working fine fo about the first 50 miles after that they stopped (this is normal)

and did it after about the first 10 miles
