My point behind this thread was there's been alot of.....misinformation...about whether this engine has lag or not.

I wanted to share my impressions about it.
I do believe you, not just because you say so...but because I've have 4Ts and 6Ts in my life, ie all turbos have spool up, can't get by it - it's the way it's designed, some less than others but you will feel something. The funny thing is, so many "reviewers" have gone out of their way to convince us otherwise, I've read or heard many say "no lag", and that's just BS or just a concerted effort from BMW to convince them to convince us.

Marketing has gone a long way here, you were merely trying to help most believe what we already know before getting mind fk'd.
