It depends on how they add the power. If they do it purely through the turbos, then added lag is a possibility. I have driven a N20 car, and trust me I had it in 8th gear and stomped the throttle trying to find lag. I just really couldn't. Anyway, the turbo lag couldn't be worse than the early electronic throttle lag that we have in our E46's.

Ah, thanks for clearing that up.
