my point was...until recently they had nothing in any of their lineups. in the last year or so, all their lines except cars have gained turbos...so maybe this will spill over.

or maybe not.

i'm just talking.

well, obviously the turbo engines were severly inefficient. but thats true for most turbo cars in the 80's. IE subaru, saab... i remember seeing a few little turbo honda cars back when i lived in japan, but was too young to care about them.

Stock turbos are usually small enough so the lag is non-existent or negligable.

usually

I'm not talking about overboosted cars like WRX's and Lancers. DSM's dont have bad boost lag stock. Also many small cars with very low displacement engines that have small turbos for fuel efficency dont suffer from alot of lag.
