lag is TURBO wheel spinning up NOT FLOW
small wheel spins up faster then a bigger one
vetts with 6-7 L get lots of flow
rear turbo also removes heat from confined space under the hood
not the best for max efficiency
but plenty for a street car with 400-500 hp
btw a small turbo like volvo used gains mid range power
not so much at peak for better fat tork drive-ability
