lol, you silly newb. What kind of turbo kit do you have? If you have a boost controller, you can up the boost a few psi (if you are already running low boost on a small turbo like a 14b or t3 turbo), and retune it.

And 12 seconds isnt fast enough for the street? If your motor is built/turbo'd it doesnt seem that you need any of our help unless you just bought it that way...

Like EVERYBODY has said so far - what the hell is the trim of the turbo? (the mm rate = size, nothing more ).

And this doesn't even sound like you have a turbo, it sounds like A) You just wanna brag if you do have a turbo and it's a 12 second car, or B) You just wanna be a pain in the *** to people in the forum.

For somebody with a 12 second car you sure are stupid about it.

Let's see...

Picture of "turbo" written on the valve cover (in magic marker, it'll wipe right off) with a spark plug on top of it = thx.

(guarantee nobody will see this picture)
