Question came up in a friends game today.

A bike unit turbo boosts. Does it get +1 to its cover save? The last time I played 7 ed. We look it up and found that you did, but I couldn't find it tonight. Did we mess up last time I played or was my rulebook-fu really lacking? Ie. can you provide a page #.

Thanks in advance.

I just did a keyword search for all places "turbo-boost" appears in my digital edition and in NONE of the entries did I find anything saying that it gave you +1 to your Jink or any other cover save.

Think about it this way: in 6th edition Jink was 5+ and with Turbo it was 4+; in 7th edition it's always 4+ at the expense of being forced to snap-shot.

Do you get an extra +1 for skilled rider?

You know, the answer to that is actually rather obviously written under the Skilled Rider entry in the Special Rules section, rather than needing to be cobbled together from multiple entries or requiring confirmation of non-existence. Answer is "yes", but only to cover saves given by Jink specifically.
