Concerned about the S58 after drag racing in an X3M/X4M

At an event, we drag raced an X3M and X4M. Both of those cars had a huge delay after flooring before the boost kicked in. Basically, you floored it and then it was like “go slowly, go slowly, count to 5, then boom acceleration”. I was told that it’s a known design choice associated with the turbos on those SUVs to make them feel more like an “X” vehicle, and that the turbos in the M3/M4 will fix this problem.

Has anyone else experienced this, and do we know if the turbos in the M3/M4 will indeed resolve this issue?
