Plot[edit]
Brian O'Conner packs his bags and leaves Los Angeles, before the LAPD gets a chance to arrest him for letting Dominic escape. While the FBI launch a national manhunt for him, Brian travels across Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas, winning every street race he participates in, with his red Dodge Stealth. However, he is forced to ditch his car at a motel in San Antonio when police officers are notified of his presence. When they collect the car, he manages to hitch a ride from an unknown woman, despite her knowing who he really is. She drops him at a used car lot, with him realizing she knows that he is a wanted man. There, he buys a green Nissan Skyline GT-R R34. Later, collecting money from street races, he modifies the car with new rims and repaints it silver before traveling eastbound and winning more races on the way. Upon reaching Jacksonville, Florida, Brian heads south toward Miami, where he sees Slap Jack's Toyota Supra and Orange Julius' Mazda RX-7 before the screen reads '2 be continued...'.

The title may a bit misleading in that it isn’t very turbo charged at all but what is does do is bridge the gap between the end of the first film and the start of the sequel. In a little over six minutes you get a wordless insight into the events that took former FBI agent Brian O’Connor from Los Angeles right across the country to Miami. Due to his actions towards Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) he becomes a wanted man and has to keep on the move to avoid the law. He is helped along the way by a girl (Minka Kelly) when the heat gets a bit too close.
This isn’t the greatest short film you will ever see but for fans of the ongoing franchise it is an extra small piece to enjoy.
