D-Tuned is running a similar Setup w/ the LSVTEC motor and is using one of my RED PILLS. I believe that one will do quite well..

For my definintion of lag, or lack of response, yes. That is rather laggy. The SC61 is not the end all be all solution to everything. You must give us an idea of what it is you're looking for in a turbo. From torque and peak power, to responsiveness and the use of the car.
