Lack of torque maybe? actually they have alot of torque for what they are. which is why the turbo is so small, its the fact peak power is below 6,000rpm… but like emuscles said, a chip(not apr or giac) would wake that thing right up… chip, downpipe and stock catback will be 190ish whp, 220-230tq. problem now is its heavy and stock boost. mine was 11.6psi stock, yours is 8.9psi… makes a world of difference ---
