A lot of cars I had to drive or passenger into during the last year or so were turbo. 1.4TSI, 1.6, 1.8.... ect... and most of those were almost as fast as the Porsche on the launch anyway hmmm

I have a bad habit of borrowing ppl cars, whatever I can find lol

Technology continues to evolve and improve and that is certainly evident in turbos. There has been some pretty crappy turbos over the years - but now are becoming the norm due to a much greater reliability and performance. Can only imagine how slick they will be in another 10 years. Great power + fuel efficiency
