Nope. Unfortunately, there's not much one can do about it save for not driving the vehicle under those circumstances.


Any turbocharger will do it given the right operating conditions (like surge), but certain turbos will be more immune to it on certain engines.

It's caused when there is sufficient heat energy to maintain high boost/high compressor speeds and then instantly it's gone (during a shift or "throttle lift").
