Depends on the specs of your car and the ED30, and the ED30's history.

Drive it normally.  You might not like the higher revs needed to fire up the turbocharger.
Remember a remapped GTI is faster than an ED30.

Yeah, but he didnt say that. A remapped GTI is faster than a standard ED30.

I think what he was trying to say is that if you want a bit more power then just get it remapped rather than going through the hassle of swapping cars? ?
