Just stay above 3000 r.p.m.'s and you will not have any lag.

-Titanium turbo
-head/manifold(s)/o2 work (port, polish etc).

Stroker kit + smaller turbo might not be a bad thing.

more air, need fuel pump, injectors, etc.

there is a anti lag system out there. You could research those before you add all those up, because lag is always going to be there and more evident with bigger turbo upgrade and fuel upgrades.

antilag is a tuning... it can be assisted with dumping your bov air into the exhaust manifold but it is not necessary by any means. antilag can be tuned in with aem or any of the japanese engine management progs. it's the concept of pushing fuel without spark through the engine after boost purge to combust fuel in the exhaust manifold and hot side turbo to spin the turbine, very damaging... but turbo rebuilds are cheap for this type of lagless performance.

holding boost is gonna make you hit full boost and power faster, hence the suggestion of an mbc.

cams and headers will get you the biggest gain in spool.

that is only if you have your entire turboback exhaust taken care of. the more free it is turbo back the faster you will spool. so 3" will get you the fastest spool... but not the best torque, which means you have to get the best balance.

displacement is obvious

i have no idea how a ****in' flywheel is gonna make you boost faster. that's just the dumbest thing i've ever heard actually.... a lighter flywheel will make you hit effectively less boost per rpm cuz the damn thing is revving faster which means in first gear you'd end up seeing less boost before it's time to shift. and if you're talking about a heavier flywheel then that's couterproductive for so many reasons you should shoot your car to make it faster. that's why dyno pulls are done in 4th gear, because it takes long enough for climb through the rpms for the boost curve to be meaningful. in first you'd get a fast violent rev all the way through and your power and everything else would be off the charts erratic.

the thing is everyone is sayins stay above a certain rpm... this does not eliminate trubo lag. the time it takes to recompress the intake track after blow off can also be interpretted as turbolag.

in which case if you want fast spool and fast power build up you should also get a freeflowing intercooler and the shortest amount of piping possible.

a ported throttle body will increase lag because you'll have to fill a larger "surge tank" the ideal setup for fast spool is a balance in the intake tract between the smallest diameter piping you can possibly run while still being able to FLOW enough air to not cap the turbo's potential.

now there's obvious benefits to having components that arne't the most "lag friendly" having a large throttle body is good it makes more power, having a bigger intercooler is good, having a freeflowing one is better. having a big turbo makes power, and having a smaller dp nets you more torque... so it is a balance... cuz spool without torque is worthless, that means you're not moving much and spool without horsepower is equally pointless, cuz that means yer not moving very fast.
