port the turbo wastegate

I always thought that higher compression and a thinner HG gave better response

compression, displacement, length of intercooler route, width of intercooler pipe, decent boost controller, good map,
all these things will help buddy

lower comp allows you to run more boost pressure by putting less strain on the internals - you need low comp to run big boost but high comp would spool a turbo faster than low comp but you wouldnt be able to run as much boost

what i said was correct mate

.more boost maybe??what width should the intercooler pipe be do you think?

haha !! i wouldnt put that turbo past 1.6 bar i dont think buddy, the i/c pipes should be same diamiter as turbo outlet on the hot side and then 2.5 inch on the cold side to the tb maybe 2.1/4 on a 4e ??????? but im not 100% - i wouldnt overly worry about the lag it just means that when your off boost your more economical - all you gotta do is shift down a gear
there are gain settings on most boost controllers aswell that can help with reducing the lag and also your tuner may be able to alter it slightly aswell but thats one for chris

i really noticed the lag last night in lower gears racing a bike(on a private road)when i had the td04 it would stay with it for a couple of gears,now hes gone,he has power straight away whereas i have to wait for the turbo,thats why im looking for ways of bringing it down a bit,not looking for miracles.
would cams and a better inlet manifold and throttle body help?

a better inlet manifold would make a good difference and also head work would make a major difference cams would probobly increase the lag a bit as bigger cams have to rev higher before they get into their efficiency range
headwork and an inlet would be the best bet maybe drop the spool up to 500 rpm
