S70R S70

Nika- I might be because your RPMs are too low in 1st gear, that the turbine is not spinning. If you want to feel the turbo in 1st gear(if it's a manual), engage 1st, keep the clutch down and depress the accel. to about 2-3000 rpm. the turbo should be spinning by now, and then let out the clutch. Be sure no traffic or cars are close by since you may be "flying".
Since you don't have a boost gauge stock, you can't tell when you're in the "boost". BTW, whats the HP/torque output on your car???? We never got the s70R in the US(legally).
