Stupid question. My car is a pig before boost (boxy gvr4 LOL) is there any way to tune 1500-3000 rpm range for more power? Would making a more agressive timing curve in this range help me at all? 272s on a stock lower end with a head that flows crazy amounts makes for a slow get up and go so to speak. This is more for drivability as its annoying downshifting for hills. Sorry if this is stupid.

Thanks guys.
 
Why not lean it out alittle more in the lower ranges thus helping spool the turbo alittle faster? You could try adjusting the timing to be more aggressive down low, just make sure you transition right going into boost or you could get knock! Its basically the same idea as having anti lag.
