smiling but curious(urgent)

ok I started the car up and it didn't blow up

but I have a little question. when the idle dropped to normal the turbo stopped spinning. is this normal??? when I give it gas it spools back up again.

I purged the line before I started it and oil did go through the feed so i know it isn't dry. TIA
Joe

Hmm.. dunno about you guys, but my turbo is always spinning,
even at idle.

Mine does not spin at idle. It's different for different turbos on different motors though.

Yeah...depends on the size of the turbo and whatnot. If it's a smaller turbo, it'll probably spin at idle...or if it's a "larger" car. You guys know what I mean....I'm not putting into words right.
