ok here we go, get an injector, mount it in your exhaust just before the turbo, set up a simple circuit with a micro switch so when at idle it injects fuel into the exhaust which ignites due to the heat and will make your turbo spool up much quicker although in the long run you will have to re build or get a new turbo all the time also forget the compressed air, to get any sort of benifet you will first of all need to run a pipe from you tank in the back to the exhaust manifold and that pipe will have to at least be the same size as the exhaust to be able to get enough air flow through it to create any benifit what so ever. to get any benifit you will need to release about the same amount of air thats in a car tyre into the exhaust within 1 second, now thats a lot of air you have to dirt of all try and get to the front of the car and be able to refil constantly, also to have a tank big enough to hold the amount of air you would need would weigh a more then the extra power you will get out of the car so it wouldn't make any difference at all. also look at a air compressor, thats a big motor running of 240V and it takes a long time for it to charge its tanks, these ideas are pointless, if they were effective you would see them in race cars, the only ones you see in race cars to be more precise "rally cars" (due to the fact they are on and off the gas all the time) the most effect way to keep the turbo spooling up is by injecting fuel vapour into the exhaust manifold, or causing the engine to misfire on idle so it gets unburnt fuel vapour going into the exhaust and exploding in the turbo, thats the only way your going to get it to spool up quicker but i hope you have a few turbo's in your shed to replace them as they keep getting blown over time.
