Default New technology for all you racers out there

it's called "turbocharging", I hear people have been getting performance gains with this new technology. I'm surprised not a lot of people have looked into this route before

So what you're saying is that with this so-called turbocharging thing one can make his or her car go faster and pull harder?

My American D.M. parts aren't good enough for this turbocharging concept? Perhaps turbochargers are grown only in Japan?
