You can't have it all with a small turbo, but I just need a teeny bit more top end and I think I'll be satisfied.
I think the benefit of instant acceleration for the small turbo in the real world outweighs the benefits of sustained high rpm/top end power unless you're sat on the autobahn every day.

Well the S40 T5 is a low pressure system, it is a cut down version
of the " real" T5 engine . If your car is a 2008 or later the polestar software restores it to 260 bhp ...
