Cool

Smaller Turbo.

These trucks do not suffer from lag...something that starts spooling just off idle has very good response.

I've heard that water/meth injection will spool it up a bit quicker... or there's always nitrous!

turbos will always have some sort of lag, its just how turbos work. To solve that, you need something to rev our car faster to spool the turbo...or get a smaller one.
