Eliminating turbo lag

[Jeffhallphotos]

Is it possible? I am sure it is too new to have anything yet but I just feel this bad ass truck, thats my biggest complaint

I think a lot of the perceived turbo lag is actually throttle lag and that can be assisted with a pedal commander (or similar mod).

Drive by wire definitely affects this on many vehicles (Porsche Macan is one of the worst)

Regardless of the throttle response, turbos still have to spool up as exhaust does. This takes a little bit of time. The only answer I know of involves something other than turbos. Either a supercharger or the old Kompressor thing that uses compressed air.

I heard if you're driving in sport mode there much less turbo lag. This true?

Do the butterfly exhaust valves have anything to do with the turbo lag if forced permanently open? Aren't they used for sound, but also for back pressure to allow turbos to build up spool faster? I need to know cuz I was gonna force them to always stay open OR completely remove them...but now I'm second guessing myself.
