unless ur running big boost it makes sod all difference. The jerkyness is also due to the tps being a basically on off switch as well im pretty sure.

same but then again ive got friends with turbo cars and their turbos last ok given the abuse they get. I dont think its a big issue so long as the car has good oil and you tke reasonable care of the car
