This prototype car for example...

2.5 liter motor
Stock cams
Dual ball bearing Garrett GT30R turbo with twin scroll housing

Horrible lag... I think not.
Here is a 2600 lb 2.5 liter STI tuned for AX. Let me know if you see any lag here.

Now imagine that same motor in this 2000 lb Boxster. Oh I mean 1900 lb Boxster
