Default Lag is the amount of time it takes for the turbo to spool up and make boost

boost creep is when the boost rises above what the set boost level is at higher rpms. Boost spike is when the wastegate does not react fast enough and your boost level shoots up real fast then drops back down, usually happens when you first go wot.
