Message	I have spun GT2530's and PE1420's by hand. They certainly don't freewheel like you describe, but oh well. But hey, if your turbine wheels have the inertia of a bicycle wheel, maybe they are still spinning. But as for your turbos still sucking in air...where does all this air go with the engine off? Oh wait...you have BOV's. Do they vent with your car turned off too? Seems to me aerodynamic drag on the impeller caused by all of this massive air flow would slow down the turbo pretty quick. *shrug* I'd still like to see a vid, because I am by nature a skeptical bastard. Thanks.
