"it is also taking a little time for the exhaust gasses to reach the turbo-charger, for the turbo-charger to spool up and for the air to go through the intercooler and reach combustion". During WWII most fighters did not have turbo-chargers, the main exceptions being the P-38 and P-47. So turbo spool-up was not a factor except in some USAAF fighters. I am pretty certain no Merlins saw combat with turbos.Best Regards,Artie Bob
