Info on turbo lag

Guys all turbo's have some sort of lag. If you pick a properly size turbo you will have the least amount of lag. For example a t3/t04e hybrid turbo will have more lag but can support more hp than a t3. When picking a turbo size you need to take in cosideration how much boost, hp, & over performance you are looking for. Putting two small turbo's is not the answer. If it was
why do Supra TT & RX7 TT owners upgrade to a single turbo when they want to make more power? If you want the best turbo for you Impreza do not cut any corners and buy a properly sized turbo. The JC kit uses a small turbo (minimal lag limited in power), Minnam uses a t3/t04 ( more lag more power potential) & Ludespeed uses a t3 which I beleive you get best of both worlds, acceptable amount of lag & more turbo than the amount of power most people are ever going to make. Just my opinion.
