Nice one, glad you went the FMIC option, I remember we were talking about it a while back, lag shmag! : ) You drive around it : )

How much boost are you running? hows your fuelling? I think theres potential for a 400hp/600Nm car there. : )

edit, I just remembered that brett (evlwrx) has about 400hp/600Nm at the hubs but thats with a 3037...so maybe you are close to the potential of the 2835...

Still, Im guessing you would be running about 1.5Bar...1.8 could change things a bit..

Good result Gav.
I can't see how the dyno will show you how laggy the set up is though.
Getting full boost at 4000 r/min isn't the measure of lag.
It's how long it takes to go from vacuum to boost when you're already above 4000.
You could have 15 metres of intercooler pipe and it'd still reach full boost at 4000.

ah the old "boost threshold" and "lag" definitions..: )

Its true, boost threshold = rpms where full boost is reached...Lag = time between WOT and target boost reached when rpms are above boost threshold.

happy to be corrected if Im off the mark...
