The Turbo in GT5 is 2 parts. 1 part turbo and 1 part boost controller.
The Turbo on its own gives massive horse power but way too much, glitch craziness. The Boost controller contains and reduces the power of the turbo to usable power and it impacts how the power from the turbo is applied. For example 1 boost controller code will have boost kick in fully at 1800rpm while another will kick in at 4500rpm and another 5500rpm. I initially thought the controller must fully control the power of the turbo, but Ive come to find the turbo code will also impact where in the power band the power kicks in fully. For example a Stage 2 turbo will kick in power at lower rpm then a stage 3 turbo even when using the same boost controller code.
The turbo code is not progressively more power meaning raising the hex incrementally does not yield progressively higher hp, it kinda goes all over the place at first seemingly with no pattern, but I've begun to notice some patterns surfacing, enough to manipulate the Turbo code varying within the stage I want to use, For example I can manipulate the Turbo code and stay using a stage 2, or 3, or 4 set of turbos etc. This would be a little bit too complicated to explain & comes from much trial and error.
Here is a snap of my car data showing the turbo and boost controller codes, these 2 work together to manipulate turbos in GT5

Boost controller

Correction, that's a custom turbo off an R8 during testing I'll give details on it later.
In 2.12 I do not know if both the Turbo and boost controller codes can be hacked, I am positive the Turbo code can tho. You can give more power fro just manipulating the turbo code, but either the gains are too small to matter, they glitch the HP & you have reduced control over how the power from the turbo is delivered.
The codes I will pass for testing will be 1 for using both the turbo & boost controller, the other will be only for the turbo if manipulating the boost controller doesn't stick on 2.12.
I want people to be familiar with the area of the car data we will be editing, and if you have any questions nows a good time.

Turbo For Testing
Nissan GT-R R35 Black Edition (AMS Alpha-12 Conversion)
GT25-43 Turbo System
Turbo
1443
Boost Controller
0D54 5F000000
This system is designed specifically for the R35 GT-R Black Edition, it will work on all versions of the car, but the GTR B/E Will net 1505hp on point with the IRL AMS Alpha-12 GT-R.
If the code is applied correctly to a fully broken in GT-R R35 Black Edition the Dyno should look like this

Here is the impression from the first tester of the Turbo Kits, but they are running 2.11 . It will at least give somebody else s impression of the custom turbo kits.

They are 100% driveable grip racing monsters. Forget about useless 9000hp smoke mobiles THIS is where the cars come to life!
