I think it's futile to try to convince NISFAN on this (or any other matter ). Even with all the information out there and the technology allready being in use, he will not be convinced it has any place on a turbo I believe that to NISFAN the turbo is such a clever device, it can't be improved upon Nevermind that WRC cars have found the need to install anti lag devices, or that F1 next year will use the MGU both to regenerate energy and to boost the turbo as well as replace the wastegate.

Even with all the information from turbo manufacturers and Renault F1 about how the MGU can be used to spool up the turbo to avoid lag, NISFAN isn't convinced that this actually has any real world effect...
