Matching revs concept. But as to aid turbo lag not so sure you can rev the engine all you like the turbo will only spin when under load.(i.e in gear and forcing air in)

I think if the turbo really suffers that much lag then you need to find away to make the turbo spin up faster, to be honest the 21 turbo has a bigger turbo than the GTA ; I dont really suffer any real lag it can be improved by improving the pipework and the housing that gets rid of the exhaust gases the quicker they exit, the quicker the turbo will spin up you want as little or no back pressure as possible .....a little ignition advance would not go amiss either, it works for a 21 turbo when intake temps are kept low.

Surely no one expects power from a turbo car when not on-boost.
I just know some one will contracdict this generalisation for some good reason.
