Turbo Question

I have had many people ask if I have a turbo on my car. Reason being is that:
1) At about 4000 rpm, it kicks really hard.
2) When the A/C is on, when I shift, It goes pssssst. I just wanna know if anyone else has had these "symptoms."

if people are asking you that, they probably have never driven a car with an aftermarket turbo, and have no clue what they're talking about

Probably, but it's also cool getting looks from people.

i made that ghetto hai for my dad and it was all good and rumbly but now whenever i accelerate, it sound like a turbo. I DO know what a turbo sounds like because my dad has an s4 and i have a tt z. Why does it sound like this.
