Turbo Kicking In Early? - 8/12/2006 6:18:30 PM

Oi. I've been looking at a 94 eclipse with 110k miles on it. The only problem they said the car had was that the turbo kicked in early. I was wondering what the most common issue would be that would make this happen. I'm guessing it would have to be electrical, so maybe a sensor? Eh, I'm not the most car savvy, but I can understand a good amount.

Thanks for any replies and help.

turbo kicking in has nothing to do with electronics. it cant kick in early. it kicks in from the exhaust flow. If its a stock turbo it will start to spool around 2.5k or something
