I have an 02 9-5 Aero and love it.
About power and burst of speed - 1st (and 2nd gear to a lesser degree) are turbo boost limited to reduce the possibility of tire spin.
But when you punch it into 3rd the thing is a rocket.
To eliminate the turbo lag, just crank thru the gears and the turbo will be spooled up and the car will amaze you.
While just cruising at highway speed and then needed to pass someone there may be slight turbo lag but you will have passing power that is impressive.
You will enjoy it.
