> It is in the nature of turbo, that there will be always more power in that kind of engine than in normal ones.
> But in LT's you always should be aware of the fact that there are very diffrent gear transmisson ratios depending which rear axle is used in the van.
> That means you can have a turbo engine in a van with short ratio with very good speedup but you can end at the same or even lower high speed than a van without turbo but long ratio.
> So, if you are interested in a van arrange a testdrive with the van and check out if the van is useful for your needs.
