Who asked you?

Lag and drivability has very little to do with the size of the turbo. Tuning, proper injectors, proper turbine housing design, proper exhaust scavenging, maf tubing size location and direction, hell even your right foot have more to do with lag and drivability.

when you run the 2.87 pulley you will understand why.

I'll never be able to use e85, not available in my country, so please explain

the because given the boost and compressor efficiency running pump gas you'd have to pull so much timing that it would negate most if not all of the gains from the smaller pulley? just a guess.

I know I'll probably be bashed.... Again... but it seems to me the op would be best suited for the phantom electric supercharger. It has power when needed, it doesn't effect mileage, and is way cheaper than other setups.

Have you ever driven a properly setup turbo car...?

What some of the people on here are driving? No. I have driven cars with stock turbos or mild versions of what is being applied here.

I'm not saying the esc will produce what you guys are doing . It may eventually ( probably not this year) but for what the op is looking for I feel the esc fits the need better then what some guys are telling him to get.
