You all should STOP complaining about the lag.. technology is out there and there gonna be NO NOTICABLE LAG.. VW 2.0 4 doesnt have lag, Subaru 2.5 doenst have lag and here u have a state of the art engine with small (aka no log) turbos - u will feel NO LAG.. But u WILL feel the g's when accelerating..
I rest my case..
