Small turbos do not have lag comparing to bigger turbos like a 16g, 20G, or any turbos pumping over 350 flywheel HP.
Ever seen a big Supra turbo . . . it has lag but it is offset by its bigger displacement and extra cyls. Put the same in a 4 banger . . . you're going to have a very hard time hitting its sweet spot in the rpm band.

i raced one...dont know which one it was though. I embarrased the hell out of him so he was probably the lower model. He did have filter and exhaust and BOV too. He sounded good but didnt go anywhere.

i test drove the jetta GLI and the turbo kicked in before 3000 rpm. i believe that is the 180hp one. it was pretty quick felt awesome through the turns. would have bought one if i didn't buy the ra first. much better than a regular 1.8t, and the seats and wheels are sweet. actually the whole interior was sweet, but had a small back seat.

Oh yeah?? Well my Enzo will spank your G35 in every category under the sun. Owned!!
It's hilarious that he even comes on here and posts that. Like he's trying to reassure himself that the Type-R is a better car or somethin...

Ralliart vs. Scion tC
I'm wondering who would have bought the Scion tC if it were available when they bought the Ralliart.
Scion tC performance: 0-60=7.4 1/4 mile=15.6 Top speed=127 skidpad=.82g slalom 64mph
perks: 14.5 gal. tank (Ralliart 13.2 gal.) Full panorama moonroof on all models. Nice interior.
Ralliart is a tiny bit faster. Scion tC has a good amount more styling.
