when does it "lag"??? at low rpm if you step on it it will climb up, but it wont seem to pull. this is just because its a 4 cylinder, it doesnt make peak torque till 4500 or 5000rpm. if you downshift and stomp on it, the thing should take off instantly, should be no lag at all.

the "lag" you may be referring to is the car hitting peak torque around 4000 RPM

you can especially feel this when your flooring it from 20 in 2nd and just about 40 it feels like the s/c "kicks in"

im guessing thats what your talking about

I love my S/C because it DOESN'T lag. Maybe some more details? And if you're nailing wide open throttle at low rpm's, of course it's going to lag. My two cents.
