Default 2 ques. on turbo

Would a turbocharged small block V8 torque would feel more violent compare to a natural aspirated big block V8?

Also, with a turbo car, let say that your cruising on the freeway around 60mph and all of sudden you downshift to get into the upper rpm range, would there be a slight lag?

Its all dependant on what size turbo your using...

But really with the right sized turbo you should see any lag what so ever

I see no lag on a downshift punch at 60 with my T76.

Downshifting my front mount T67 can be frightening... I'm fully spooled at 3k rpm.
