I agree that the turbo has to work more..but boost lag isn't turbo lag. The amount of time it takes for the turbo to reach spool up is called "boost lag". The amount of time it takes you to depress the pedal to the time you are at WOT with full acceleration is called "fuel lag" or "turbo lag".

The book says a Stock S4 Turbo has 182 RWHP. Thats why I say your mods should produce ALOT more than 8 HP.

I think you mean 182 at the crank. That would be about 150 at the wheels..

You are quite possibly right. I just looked at the factory spec sheet for my AE and it says; 182 SAE HP. 0-60 6.7 secs, 1/4 mile 15.7.

I had planned on going for a couple of weeks now, but I took the last 2 days off work cause I've been sicker than ****. If I feel like this tommorow I am going to miss it But if I feel even halfway decent I will be going for sure. I already took tommorow off work a couple of weeks ago with intenions on going to SS. So, I really won't know till tommorow, I really want to go .. but not if im gonna be F-in misrable
