it has everything to do with torque vs horse power, and nothing to do with being in "BOOST" range, Turbo lag is almost non existent nowadays anyways, most turbo's spool up next to instantly.... In fact a Turbo car would have closer torque to HP numbers making it better from a dig then it would be if it was N/A[/quote:5c01c]

This has everything to do with engine size vs turbo size. Turbo lag does exsist in todays turbos. I dont know about millas WRX, but its noticable when my turbo hits its sweet spot, it is not instant from a standing start. Also, mustangs are fun to pick on because they think "its a v8, its fast" and its not. Its even funner with the guys with the V6's, why, why would you even try with those peices of shit.
