1. Alex B Says: Hey guys, i bottomed out the other day going up a hill, i tore the right bumper a little and bottomed out SO hard! Now whenever my car isn't warmed up it is really slow to get up to speed. Also i have a Saab 9-3 with a turbo in it and it just seems like its slow but then if i floor it it jolts and then picks up? it never did that before and was just wondering what i ****** up. thanks
2. BrettH8sU Says: For a turbo to work it has to have good air flow in AND out. If you damaged you exhaust it will cause slow spool-up time and lack of power.
3. clncarplz Says: Check to see if the exhaust pipe is smashed together so you don't get the full flow of exhaust gas
4. Snapback Says: your turbo mani could of cracked thats what most likey happen.
5. Hi Says: You probably hit part of your exhaust on the ground
