Basically the same thing. Dropping the clutch too fast, making the engine fall below the desired idle RPM and making it struggle to get back to idle. It sounds pretty cool and I can even do it with my automatic but it does not like it.

hookd if you do the WW with the turbo in, make sure you get the wobbly extension. If you dont its a PITA to try it with swivel extensions. If I were you I would order a set of o-rings and just pull the turbo and replce em all. The only reason I recommend this is that when I did my WW (Btw I already had an o-ring leak) I think all the wrenching made my leak worse. to pull the turbo it takes about 45min, to do the WW with the turbo in it takes about 45min ( so pulling turbo doubles your time since you have to reinstall) The advantage is you will be able to clean everything up and get those crapy pedestal o-rings some RR. Anyway go for it you will feel like king of the world when your neighbors see you pulling a turbo and thinking your awsome for atempting it.
