Turbo Thruster

"The Turbo Thruster was designed by Spectre R&D to provide an advanced thruster system with increased speed and bonus in health."

General
The Turbo Thruster is an advanced Tachyon Thruster that provides additional health.

Advantages
Without incurring any penalties to other speed stats (e.g. strafe speed for Fusion Thrusters, turning speed for Binary Thrusters), this one provides a modest bonus to forward speed. It even increases the ship's acceleration, helping it reach maximum speed sooner.

Compared with Tachyon Thruster, it provides additional health at a very low health to mass ratio - even lower than that of Segmentata Armor.

Disadvantages
Compared to other thrusters, the Turbo Thruster only increases one main speed stat (namely forward speed). Acceleration is rarely an issue, and this thruster cannot even be used on the ships that benefit most from it - dreadnoughts.

Trivia

 * Its icon looks like an upgraded Tachyon Thruster.
 * The Turbo Thruster originally displayed a 0% stasis resist stat, which was later removed.
