No, Brian..usually I'm only half aware of what's being played..and altho this song was familiar to me, I couldn't identify the artist or the song's title! It was a neat song, and I was glad for any accompaniment! Thanks for the comment! :) Jack

To spare the bearings starvation at oil change, I had a switch that killed ignition until the oil pressure was built up..but I didn't know to let the car idle after a long drive to prevent cooking. I see about when the available power comes on..I'd prefer it on start up anyhow. What alarmed me on these K cars was the thought they'd have to pull the engine to replace the turbo..and in a car that's pretty old, it doesn't seem worth the expense. Thanks for the info, Eric! :) Jack

Well you are suppose to let the car idle for a bit after a long drive to keep the oil in the bearings from cooking for one, some cars have a special oiling system just for this (even after shut off). On the other side of it you really need to know when you want your power: supercharger immediate low end power (sacrifices high rpm horsepower)turbo, high rpm power (takes time to spool up). Depending on engine design and intent for the car it is a choice to make.

I bet they are, Eric. I have a bias toward superchargers as opposed to turbos. I had 2 turbos in my life..85 Chrysler Laser and 87 Dodge Shadow. The turbo was never a problem, but I just didn't trust those bearings! Thanks for the comment! :) Jack

You're right, Kevin! It was familiar to me, but I didn't know the name..but the group's name, Booker T and the MG's was! Yeah, those stripes give this car away as being something special! LOL! Thanks for the comment! :) Jack
