[[File:DaisyMKWii2.png|thumb|A Mini-Turbo in action as seen in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. In most games, the charging of a Mini-Turbo is indicated by blue sparks igniting from the rear wheels.]]
A '''Mini-Turbo''', also known as a '''Turbo Slide''', a '''Boost Slide''', '''Slide Boosting''', or simply a '''Boost''', is a technique used in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'']] series. It consists of a short speed boost following a successful [[drift]]. It appears in every game in the series since ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''.<ref name="SMKNOG"/> Especially in the games in which a Mini-Turbo is manually charged, several consecutive Mini-Turbo boosts can be immediately charged, one after the other, in order to maintain a higher speed; said technique is known as '''snaking''' due to the need to alternate the directions of the drifts on straightaways, creating peculiar waving lines.

==Charging methods==
===Boost counter===
What is commonly known as a boost counter<ref name="SMKTAS">[http://tasvideos.org/GameResources/SNES/SuperMarioKart.html Game Resources / SNES / Super Mario Kart]. ''TASVideos''. Retrieved February 19, 2018.</ref> is a value that is meant to start at 0 when a drift begins and gradually increase while the player drifts, at a rate that can vary depending on certain conditions. When a certain threshold value is reached, an event happens: either a cosmetic event (sparks appearing, indicating that the full charge of a degree of Mini-Turbo is near) or the charge of a certain degree of Mini-Turbo (either Mini-Turbo, Super Mini-Turbo, or Ultra Mini-Turbo). Once drifting ends, the counter resets and the degree of Mini-Turbo charged is released.

===Manual charging===
This method of Mini-Turbo charging relies on the player steering toward the outside of the turn, then toward the inside and then toward the outside again during a drift to charge a Mini-Turbo.<ref name ="MK64manual">[http://www.retrogames.cz/manualy/N64/Mario_Kart_64_-_Nintendo_64_-_Manual.pdf Official manual of ''Mario Kart 64'']. Retrieved February 19, 2018.</ref> After the first time the player correctly steers toward the outside of the turn, there are visual indicators coming from the driving wheels that the Mini-Turbo has been half charged: either a different color of the letters or sparks coming out of the tires. When the Mini-Turbo is fully charged, said indicators change color again. After it is charged, the Mini-Turbo is released by releasing the drift button.

The Mini-Turbo boost is introduced in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' (where it is a technique documented only in the official guides<ref name="SMKNOG">{{media link|SMK NOG Mini-Turbo.png|An excerpt of the ''Nintendo Official Guidebook'' of ''Super Mario Kart'' describing the Mini-Turbo}}.</ref> and improperly commonly known as '''Boost'''<ref name="SMKboost">Joe Bernier. [http://www.mariokart64.com/smk/whatisnbt.php NBT (New Boost Technique) Strategy Description]. ''SMK Players' Page''. Retrieved January 18, 2016.</ref>), using the boost counter as charging method. Said counter is increased every time a combination of three buttons are pressed: {{button|snes|B}}, {{button|R}} or {{button|L}}, {{button|Padleft}} or {{button|Padright}}.<ref name="SMKTAS"/> The counter is reset to 0 and the Mini-Turbo is released when this combination of buttons is no longer pressed.

According to the ''Nintendo Official Guidebook'' of ''Super Mario Kart'', the Mini-Turbo leads to a speed increase of 2-3 km/h, where the maximum speed in normal roads ranges from 120 km/h to 135 km/h.<ref name="SMKNOG"/>

There is no animation associated to the charging of the Mini-Turbo, but during the release the kart animation stops and the engine revs up.<ref name="SMKboost" /><ref name="boostvideo"/>

In addition, the boost is somewhat able to skip off-road surfaces, similar to the [[Mushroom]].<ref name="SMKTAS"/><ref name="SMKboost" /><ref name="boostvideo" />

In ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', Mini-Turbos are now officially documented in the manual, and their charging method is changed to manual charging.<ref name ="MK64manual"/> Said charging is denoted by a change in the color of the smoke trails (which resemble the letters ''V'' and ''E'') that come out from the rear tires, from white to yellow to indicate a half charge and from yellow to orange to indicate a full charge. The release has no animation associated and is denoted by drivers shouting. According to the speedometer, a Mini-Turbo gradually increases the player's top speed for a few seconds.

''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' fully reuses the Mini-Turbo mechanics of ''Super Mario Kart'', both in terms of charging and in terms of reduced slowdown in off-road terrains.

The main difference is that in ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'' there is an animation associated with its release, with blue flames bursting from the exhaust and an associated sound.

''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' reintroduces the manual charging of Mini-Turbo<ref>''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' instruction booklet, page 12.</ref> boosts, with the difference that in this game steering toward the inside of the turn is not needed. The charging is indicated by a change in the color of the sparks coming from the wheels of the kart from yellow to orange to indicate a half charge, and then blue to indicate a full charge.
There is a small animation associated with the release, with flames from the exhaust pipes and small yellow sparks coming from the rear wheels, along with a sound effect and call by the driver who is behind. In co-op, the player who is driving must press the {{button|gcn|R}} or {{button|gcn|L}} button to drift while the back player must tilt the Control Stick to left and right; however, in single-player or non-co-op VS modes, each player controls both parts. In this game, a Mini-Turbo in-game stat is introduced, that indicates how many frames the Mini-Turbo boost lasts. As an example, all large karts, such as the [[Koopa King]], have a Mini-Turbo boost that lasts 10 frames, while the small karts and the [[Parade Kart]] have a Mini-Turbo boost that lasts 30 frames.

Well-timed Mini-Turbo boosts can be used to avoid [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]]s when they are about to hit the players.

In ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', Mini-Turbos<ref>Nintendo of Europe (2005). [https://www.nintendo.com/consumer/gameslist/manuals/DS_Mario_Kart_DS.pdf Mario Kart DS manual]. ''Nintendo of Europe CDN''. Retrieved January 18, 2016.</ref> are again manually charged, although unlike in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'', the steering toward the inside of the turn is mandatory again. The charging animation is similar, but with sparks' color reversed from blue, then orange. There is no evident animation following the release, but a small sound is associated with it along with a revving up of the engine (a similar sound as if driving through a [[Dash Panel]] or using a [[Mushroom]]), along with a wind lines on the screen akin to [[Slipstream]]ing. Like in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'', there is a hidden Mini-Turbo stat that determines how long a boost lasts. Karts with higher handling and lower weight tend to have a stronger Mini-Turbo boost, with [[Dry Bomber]] being the strongest and the [[Tyrant]] being the weakest.

Well-timed Mini-Turbo boosts, possibly accompanied by hopping, can be again used to avoid [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]]s.

''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' reintroduces the boost counter, this time charged exclusively when drifting. The charge rate is affected by how much the player is steering toward the inside of the turn while drifting: if the lateral component of the directional input is more than halfway toward the inside of the turn, the charging rate becomes 2.5 times the charging rate obtained in all the other cases.

The imminent charge of a Mini-Turbo or Super Mini-Turbo boosts is denoted by blue and orange sparks coming out of the vehicle, respectively. More vibrant sparks coming out of the driving wheels of the vehicle indicate the Mini-Turbo or Super Mini-Turbo is ready and its release is denoted by flames coming from the exhaust pipes along with a nitrous-like noise and racers shouting. 

In ''Mario Kart Wii'' only karts can charge a Super Mini-Turbo, which lasts three times as long as than the regular Mini-Turbo. The [[Bullet Bike]] and [[Mini Beast]] have the best Mini-Turbo stats, while the [[Jetsetter]] and [[Spear]] have the worst. [[Koopa Troopa]], [[Dry Bones]], [[Birdo]], [[Diddy Kong]], [[Wario]], and [[Dry Bowser]] each give the strongest Mini-Turbo bonuses to their respective vehicles.

Furthermore, a special Mini-Turbo can be charged while standing still by using the same button combination used for a [[Spin Turn]], but without the need of turning the vehicle. It is fully charged in 75 frames and blue sparks indicating its imminent charge are missing. Karts in this case only charge a regular Mini-Turbo and not a Super Mini-Turbo. This kind of Mini-Turbo is released immediately when the jump/brake button is no longer pressed.

In ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', the mechanics remain unchanged from the previous installment, though standstill Mini-Turbo is no longer possible. If racing in [[First-Person View]], the sparks appear from the front wheels instead of rear wheels. The duration of both Mini-Turbo and Super Mini-Turbo boosts is now defined in a [[Mario Kart 7 in-game statistics#Mini-Turbo (Param_MiniTurbo)|dedicated table]] and directly depends on the [[Mario Kart 7 in-game statistics#Statistics in in-game format|hidden ''MiniTurbo'' statistics]]. The characters don't shout from either Mini-Turbo level.

====''Mario Kart Arcade GP DX''====
[[File:Arcade GP DX Mini Turbo.jpg|thumb|[[Mario]] boosting after performing a stage-1 Mini-Turbo]]
The Mini-Turbo appears in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]'', marking its first appearance in an arcade game. The Mini-Turbo is executed by holding down both pedals while performing a hard turn. It can be charged up in a similar fashion to its other appearances in the ''Mario Kart'' series, except there are three stages instead of two (which would later be used in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'') and a meter appears to indicate how long it needs to be held before it reaches the next stage. The first stage creates blue sparks, the second creates orange, and the third creates rainbow sparks, which are exclusive to this game. Releasing the pedals and straightening the steering wheel activates the Mini-Turbo, although the boost has a slightly different impact than other games.

In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', the boost counter is again used as charging method, reusing the charging rate and thresholds of ''Mario Kart Wii'', with the only exception of blue sparks signaling the incoming charge of a Mini-Turbo<ref>Nintendo of Europe (2014). [https://cdn02.nintendo-europe.com/media/downloads/games_8/emanuals/wii_u_6/mario_kart_8/ElectronicManual_WiiU_MarioKart8_EN.pdf Mario Kart 8 manual]. ''Nintendo of Europe CDN''. Retrieved January 18, 2016.</ref> boost that now appear when said boost is half charged. Furthermore, the orange sparks indicating the incoming charge of a Super Mini-Turbo boost are missing and the characters shout only from the Super Mini-Turbo. Importantly, unlike in ''Mario Kart Wii'', in ''Mario Kart 8'' [[bike]]s can perform a Super Mini-Turbo and the charge continues when the vehicle is detached from the ground, provided that the drift button is held. When a Super Mini-Turbo is charged in [[anti-gravity]] mode, the vehicle parts that normally glow blue will change color to orange, then return to blue when the Mini-Turbo is released.

The boost counter can be also increased when autodrifting, although in this case the rate is 2.5 times slower than the charging rate while drifting and the boost is immediately released as soon as the autodrift ends.

''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' introduces a third level of Mini-Turbo known as '''Ultra Mini-Turbo''', that is indicated by purple (pink in the British English version) sparks and a purple glow in anti-gravity mode, and grants a boost that is even longer than the one of the Super Mini-Turbo. This kind of Mini-Turbo can only be performed if Smart Steering is disabled. Ultra Mini-Turbo also has a slightly different sound effect that indicates its charge.

According to an official Mini-Turbo tutorial video released by Nintendo for ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', regular Mini-Turbo lasts for 0.621 seconds, Super Mini-Turbo lasts for 1.674 seconds and the Ultra Mini-Turbo lasts for 2.633 seconds. <ref> [https://youtu.be/yeju5WcQr8A Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Mini-Turbo Tutorial - Nintendo Switch].

''Mario Kart Tour'' reuses the Mini-Turbo mechanics of ''Mario Kart 7'', with the impossibility of increasing the boost counter in mid-air, but features many additions from ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', in particular the Ultra Mini-Turbos, that cannot be charged when autodrifting, and the internal statistics affecting the duration, strength and boost counter thresholds of the various Mini-Turbo stages, with the time coded in seconds instead of frames. In several tours, players can obtain [[event token]]s by performing Mini-Turbos.

Some of the game's [[List of challenge cards in Mario Kart Tour|challenges]] require the player to perform a certain number of Mini-Turbos, either in a single race or across multiple races. These challenges can also be completed by performing Super Mini-Turbos and Ultra Mini-Turbos in addition to regular Mini-Turbos.<ref>Koopa con Carne (October 29, 2023).

===A-tech===
'''A-tech''' is one of the main exploits of ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''.<ref name=Atech">[http://mariokart.video/mkdd-opedia/ ''Techniques'' section of the ''MKDD-opedia'']. Retrieved February 22, 2018.</ref> It consists in releasing the {{button|gcn|a}} button as soon as the Mini-Turbo boost begins in order to prevent the vehicle from sliding slightly when starting the following drift.<ref name=Atech"/>

===Firehopping, sliding and firesliding===
An exploit found only in ''Mario Kart 8'', '''firehopping'''<ref name="MK8names">Ice (Mar 28, 2015).

Retrieved May 12, 2018.</ref> is done by repeatedly hopping in alternating directions after getting a boost of any kind (usually after a Super Mini-Turbo, a Mushroom boost or on Dash Panels), except for Slipstreams, to increase speed during said boost. This exploit requires precise timing to hop after releasing the boost and does not work when riding [[Sport bike (vehicle class)|sport bikes]] or on downhills. '''Sliding''',<ref name="MK8names"/> more commonly known as '''"Demon" sliding''' after [http://www.mariokart64.com/mk8/users/Demon/wiiu ''Demon''], a professional player in the ''Mario Kart 8'' competitive community, involves consecutive drifts that are immediately interrupted as soon as they are started. The purpose of sliding is to slow down the return to normal speed after a boost. '''Firesliding'''<ref name="MK8names"/> serves the same purpose as firehopping, but is performed on downhill segments where fire hopping would slow down the player, and is somewhat similar to sliding. Firehopping, sliding and firesliding are only possible in the original Wii U version, and do not work in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''.
