Turbo Lag Question

I just bought a 2001 Volvo S40 1.9T with a 5 speed and I was wondering how to fight the massive turbo lag that it has. Answers would be awesome. Thanks

I have also noticed that a slow steady accelleration works better than flooring it. I recently changed the plugs and put in that K&N and I definately noticed a difference.last tankfull I got 28+ mpg with 93 oct.and thats combined city and hway.

turbo lag really sucks, and there isnt much to do to fix it. temperature has alot to do wit it. the best weather for a turbo is during the spring or summer when the temp is above 60 degrees.
