Makes sense to me....

Personally, I'd rather have the 'lag' and more power as well as less
thermal stress on the engine than the alternative...

In dragracing, if runnin an automatic, turbo lag is not an issue, due to
power braking prior to launching at the startin line gettin rid of the
initial lag....

Cool?

LATER!
