Hi Clive, i tried that as well. I guess the delay is about the same using the kickdown.

I still wonder whether it's really turbo lag as it's a fairly large engine, smallish turbo and modern technology. And not an exorbitant power output. Also, it's like a switch when the power does come on, rather than a soft-ish build up of power.

I'm curious that the X3M doesn't do that according to strohw
