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.

Well put Doug...
it is good to see someone knows what they are talking about.
