This turbo sounds great, but why does it seem so slugish?

This turbo sounds great, but why does it seem so slugish?
I came upon this video on street fire, its a turbo D16 in an Ek, if you listen to the turbo spool, it sounds great, however you can hear the lag and I'm just wondering if this guy used a way too big turbo or if he's not really pushing it, I mean if you look at his speedo on the highway shot, it climbs about as fast as a stock NA civic.

Maybe he's just running low boost, but it honestly looks and sounds like stock.

No kidding, my NA 300K B18 would probably do it, i've seen many turbo cars and none of them were this slow, I mean on a highway roll like that off 5th gear I can make it to 200 KPH in no time. this guy looks like he's having troubles hitting 160.
Must be a ---- tune using an AFC, and still with the speed restrictor in the ECU running 4psi and nothing else, I dont know, all I know is its slow for a turbo car.
