No other issue at the momento.
I think the turbo lag is not reduced, because it dosent affect the lag. The feelink about the turbo lag was reduced i think is that now the turbo acts at lower rpm as all exhaust gases pass through the turbine. Instead of the gases recirculated by the EGR. This gives the power before the past.

The Motor ECU knows that there is more air flow, because the MAF detect the extra flow.

From my point of view is all gain.
I remember the intake manifold and it was full of carbon and oil sediments!
