08 C300 Lag in acceleration

Im sure the lag in acceleration is normal, but is there any options to giving the car faster power so when the pedal is pushed the car picks up better. Even my 09 Honda Accord V6 Coupe i had before had quite the acceleration, i just hate how my c300 has that lag when you push the pedal down. Can this problem somehow be conquered? or is there a reason why there is a lag? Thanks for the help everyone.

For a fuller understanding of SB, likes and dislikes, go back to W204 forum and click "search this forum" and add the word lag in the search box... you will find many 20-30 reply threads.

Thanks ARC2001 for showing great restraint !!
