Well, we are, but in this forum you have to be prepared for a little of that. However, don't ever be afraid to post a question. You WILL NOT find a more helpful pack of people anywhere. We all share the same passion for a car that is just awsome.So enjoy your toy. Respect it though, or it will kick you off big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all good - I know it's all in jest, and I got the information I was hoping for, so it's all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming it's the turbo, but as I'm completely new to driving one, I've really got no idea. Is the turbo that "unusual" sounding in comparison to normal engines?

You arent being paranoid. Yoyhve paid a packet for an item and of course you will worry. I worry about every creak and groan. Having said that you do NOT wanto get in my car. The induction/exhaust/wind up/flutter/kids whinging/stereo blaring. Its a nightmare.Mate If you are seriously concerned, pop back to your dealer and ask the service manager to come for a ride. He will quickly explain what noises should and should not be there.We will take the piss but if you are worried, get someone who knows in the car to put your mind at rest.Then get it tuned and sh!t your pants first time you floor it.
