Question number 1. Ive just become the owner of a Pal Turbographix system, will US games run on it without a converter.
I'm sorry. :(    Get a Japanese system ASAP.  You will not regret it!  The PAL one is terrible.  Its all lurpy and not good.  Then you can get a converter and play US games also.  Might wanna bite the bullet and find you a Duo-R, its like the hot russian mail order bride of import systems.

Question number 2. What do the sliders on the Turbographix controller do.
They are for turbo shooting, and excitement.  Sidenote: No offense, and it's one of my pet peeves.... its Turbo Grafx.  I twitch when I see typos.  Same thing with the Ys game series.  It's not Y's, :-D

Q.5 Is there any gain from having a US system instead of a PAL one, increased frame rate or any other geeky boffin type stuff.

Yes. Cosmetically they look better but more importantly they (US Systems) output an NTSC signal. All games were designed for NTSC so I imagine they will play slower on a PAL system and have borders at the top and bottom of the screen.

Q.6 If i do buy a US system i know i need a step down power converter thingy but what about hooking it up to the tv is there anything id need.

Nope, just the appropriate input (RF or AV) and a TV capable of displaying an NTSC signal (which is most of them from the last 10 years or so).

You don't need to use a stepdown transformer by the way, these consoles run on DC power so any DC power supply from your country with matching specs will work. It's the power supply that is expecting either 110v or 240v, not the console.
