Apparently its going on an out and out drag car with an auto box, so lag wont be too much of an issue when it comes to driveability hehe

bowls machined in them to drop the CR, quite normal on very high boost applications.

I imagine it's going on a drag car, which will have launch control, meaning it'll make boost from a standstill, preventing the lag issue.
