To me NA on track is boring, what others describe as instant throttle response to me is a difference in engine note, but no major action, no white knuckles, no sweaty brow, no hairs standing up on the neck, no 100 yard of black stripes out of that slow corner. Maybe I need to drive a Zonda to feel this excitement? I don't have Zonda money. The beauty of the turbo.

Turbo lag? a non issue if you know what you're doing
You talk about power again!?!?!

And I think you just slipped and admitted that there is turbo lag in your last sentence

And interesting picture in your sig....is that a turbo m3 that you so admire? (i hope its not so i dont shoot myself in the foot! haha)
