Given the difference between my bmw driving modes and driving old school turbo cars, it’s not turbo lag when you are driving modern turbo cars (hot-v, short headers, twin scrolls, etc.) that produce full torque at 1500-1700, its throttle response and the automatic transmission. If you are feeling significant turbo lag, IMO you don’t know what it’s like to drive a car that needs 2800-3000 rpm before it wakes up and one that WILL NOT climb to that rpm under load in too high of a gear.
