HOW SURBO WORKS--SIMPLIFIED

Here's how to play with the accelerator to get the Surbo to work fully. (From standstill, select D for automatics or CVT'S, or engage 1st gear for manuals).

Please say this a few times till it sticks: "Accelerate, hold it, accelerate, pumppumppump"

1.accelerate (to approach 3000 rpm)
2. hold (the accelerator for 1 sec while rpm still rises, and car body pushes engine) and the Surbo pressurises the air coming out of it by jetting and spinning it.
3. accelerate (gradually to around half throttle) and the Surbo continues to spin the air.
4. pumppumppump (vibrate the accelerator very slightly {like a few mm and not more widely} around the half throttle point. That pumping repeats the first 3 steps to further increase the air spinning speed and raise the air pressure).

Whenever you pump, the air spins faster and the air pressure goes up, so the air tries to shut the throttle, and you will feel the spring tension and vibrations on the accelerator, telling you you got it right.

When the rpm is high enough, you can select gears and repeat the sequence.
If your car is CVT or fully automatic and D is selected, release pressure on the accelerator to change gear up (gear 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 4). To change down, press the accelerator to mid way and pump and rpm will rise, indicating a lower gear. Even with only D selected, the Surbo's extra air will enable the CVT car to rev slightly higher than normal, and automatics to around 5000 rpm, both cases dependent on the gearbox program.

If you car is manual, you can choose to rev as high as the rev limit or change up before that, by doing steps 1 to 4 once per gear.

Revving slightly higher enables your car to leave the acceleration phase sooner and get to cruising gear in a shorter time, so saving fuel. Maximum revs are possible on a Surbo equipped car with just half throttle.
