Who say's? I like that full boost at 1500 RPM Seems like the Audi and VW factory turbo's are awfully small. I don't know exactly what sixe they are, nor have I driven one, but every time I see one drive by or taking off from a light they spool up so early and quick.

They also peak out at like 4K. That turbo looks like a DSM T25

Screw that, I like that punch in the nuts feel when the boost kicks up at 4k I'll stick to my T3/t4
