Yours builds pretty fast. That is the correct definition for the term for lag. The time it takes for turbo to go from about .01-bar to .5.

Boost threshold is the correct term when looking for the RPM where the turbo starts to boost.

Mine starts to build boost (0.01) bar at about 1500RPM I believe. I get full .5 at 3000-3200.
