+1!! If you got turbo lag, you ain't driving right.

I think I will need an exhaust and cams and may come close....Would rather not swap out the turbo [at least just yet].....

Good luck....

I still find it interesting that in Europe, everyone says that if you are aiming to over 350 BHP you should go for stronger internals, con rods especially. Yet you US guys tell that 400 WHP is hassle free with stock internals. Can anyone explain?

FWIW guys, Chris's car was a DD on the 35R w/ 630whp and he had NUMEROUS races. I believe he also made a trip to tampa for some races. Seems w/ a nicely built motor, I don't see why there would be a problem w/ 600+whp on a DD provided tuning is top notch.
