I found my old my old early WRX's horribly laggy, and always felt like even a standard UK with a TD04 was quicker. The TD05 turbo on a stock early WRX didn't get into full swing until about 4K so probably normal.

But also look out for a leaking/blowing up pipe. They are prone to rusting at the flexi point and leaking which causes considerably worse lag. Bit of a job to replace as well ,turbo off job.

Had black fleck WRX once and looked nice.
