Turbo lag?

Turbo lag?
Hello guys,
I am new to the Volvo world. I have been wrenching on hot rods and jeeps for 25 years. So this small displacement turbo engine scene is really a different thing for me.
I just got a 1996 850R... Love the car!! I am bringing it up to a, if I am correct, a stage "0" tune.
My question is... When I hit the gas, WOT, it goes but does not seem to GO until about 2000 rpm. The car accelerates like crazy, turbo boost and all at highway speed. I have surprised a couple of Porsche's
But off the line it seems to be a bit slow...
Is this normal?
Thanks,
Sean
