Thanks guys, really useful information.
For Offroad turbo is better than boost as you only really need the extra power when you get on the straight. Depending on ESC settings the best option is for activation by Full Throttle with a longer delay so the car gets up to speed at the start of the straight then the turbo comes in to add rpm 's. If you set it turbo to come in two quickly you will just bog the motor and generate heat. Using this method means you can also have more control of the car in the air - keep off full throttle and it will act as non boosted/turbo car until you get on the straight then
