Probably ALS is not forbidden, just absent in the 208? The videos of the Fiesta R5 it appears that it has ALS, listen to this:
Ford Fiesta R5 - Gravel Testing - Matthew Wilson - YouTube

Probably Peugeot still has not fully developed their system? Or maybe do not run in testing to save the engine?

play big role the absence of antilag, in a small motor that cant create enough gases to spool the turbo at low revs.

That's no excuse, my Skoda Rapid 1.2TSI delivers maximum torque from 1500RPM without antilag

At the moment the 208 looks no better than an S2000 car for low down torque, but maybe they still have some evolutions to come on the engine.

It sounds good, but I would like to hear it using more of the rev range.

Thanks, interesting that when I tried several Fiesta R5 videos those were always without anti-lag too but here in that Yours it is. Probably really not developed yet.

Your TSI turbo is designed for completely different way of working. How useful would that TSI turbo be for the engine at 7500 rpm, what do You think?

.

its very easy to create boost at 1500rpm with a small turbo that at 5000 rpm will not be able to hold 2+ bar boo0st.

probably not fully developed.Lets wait to see next videos at next evolution steps.

Not very, but these R5 cars don't sound like they are going to be in that rev range very much, apart from at top speed in 5th gear. Surely with only 5 gears the low down torque becomes more important?

He will be one of the first owners of Fiesta R5...
