335I VS Porsche Turbo

TRZ06 · 03-07-2008, 07:38 PM

Sorry, not a " I killed a 911 Turbo" story.

I was wondering what would have less turbo lag, our 335I with their small size and low inertia.

OR

the new 911's with their variable pitch turbine blades.

Anybody know?

I have never felt any turbo lag at all,at any rpm,in any gear ever in my 07 335i coupe,6MT.Never drove a 911 turbo so i cant answer that.I would love to though.

Granted there is very little lag, but there is a lag. You drive any N/A V8 sports car and you will know what I mean, the throttle response on a N/A V8 is RIGHT NOW.

So, anyways my question is still out there for anybody that knows

335i tends to get the jump, considering it makes less power, i would say it has less lag

i am at very high altitude, and my car does not start pulling until approx 2,500rpm. how about you sea level guys? what rpms does it take to start the pull?

thanks
