nickb800: You mean the fibre plans featuring Turbo?
They give you a bigger share of the international internet pipe (less of what is known as contention), so that you dont have to compete with other users quite as much. If you are already with Slingshot you will know that things slow down a lot in peak times (evenings); this mitigates this somewhat. No magic, its pretty clear from the product page

i was at the time, but new cabinet got put in. it was extra bad temporarily while the cabinet was in line or whatever. i'm more curious than anything.

If you want to understand why it happened then you should read Are you receiving substandard ULL ADSL2+ connection from your ISP?
If you were connected to an exchange, and then a cabinet comes in, your connection will suffer until it's moved out of the ULL gear and connected to the cabinet in a wholesale plan (or another ISP, but again on a wholesale plan).
