cohn, a vf22 would be uber laggy in an automatic, the APS would probably be no fun. even a vf34 will feel considerably laggier than the stock turbo on an auto. with a fairly aggressive tune on my old vf34, the best it could do is hit 18+psi under 4k. stock turbo with an up-pipe, 3" turboack, upraded fuel pump, and a butt load of timing had the best throttle / turbo response for me.
sky92x has a upgraded torque converter in his saabaru, i hear that can really help with lag.

hence why my car is always dirty

Had the Mr. Clean......but a key element for that to work well is starting out with good quality water.
Also, one evening I had to quickly wash the car....got back home at about 1:30AM and forgot I had left Mr. Clean in front of the garage

Not to be a language ****, but I can't believe that I'm the first one to notice that "stepchild" was spelled incorrectly in this thread's title.
