SRT Develops System That 'Virtually Eliminates" Turbo Lag and Helps Boost Engine Power

• SRT has developed a way to "virtually eliminate" turbo lag with a new system it has dubbed "eBoost Air."

• While it's currently only a prototype, we expect the eBoost Air system to eventually reach production and possibly debut in the Dodge Charger Sixpack.
